Ka whakamahia ētahi atu paearu (135 mmHg systolic, 85 mmHg diastolic rānei) mēnā ka ahu mai ngā inenga i te aroturuki ā-whare 24 haora, i te kāinga rānei. Ko nga aratohu toto toto o te ao hou kua hangaia nga waahanga i raro i te awhe hypertensive ki te tohu i te haere tonu o te morearea me nga toto toto teitei i roto i te awhe noa. Ko te Pūrongo Tuawhitu o te Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood Pressure (JNC7) i whakaputaina i te 2003 e whakamahi ana i te kupu prehypertension mo te toto toto i roto i te awhe 120<unk>139 mmHg systolic ranei 80<unk>89 mmHg diastolic, i te mea ko te European Society of Hypertension Guidelines (2007) me te British Hypertension Society (BHS) IV (2004) e whakamahi ana i nga waahanga pai, noa me te tino pai ki te wehe i nga pehanga i raro i te 140 mmHg systolic me te 90 mmHg diastolic. Kei te whakarōpūhia hoki te mate toto: Ka wehewehe a JNC7 i te mate toto taumata I, te mate toto taumata II, me te mate toto toto toto motuhake. Ko te mate toto nui o te toto nui e pā ana ki te pēhanga toto nui me te pēhanga diastolic noa, a he mea noa i roto i te koroheke. Ko nga Aratohu ESH-ESC (2007) me te BHS IV (2004) e tautuhi ana i te waahanga tuatoru (te mate toto toto III) mo nga taangata me te toto toto nui ake i te 179 mmHg, te pehanga diastolic neke atu i te 109 mmHg. Ka whakarōpūtia te pēhanga toto ki te "tohu" mēnā kāore ngā rongoā e whakaiti i te pēhanga toto ki ngā taumata noa iho. I te Whiringa-a-rangi 2017, i whakaputahia e te American Heart Association me te American College of Cardiology he aratohu ngatahi e whakahou ana i nga taunakitanga o te ripoata JNC7.  Pātai: He aha te taumata tuatoru o te pēhanga toto?
neke atu i te 179 mmHg, he pēhanga diastolic neke atu i te 109 mmHg
