Description
Elin Orbeck Vallevik and colleagues set infant blood pressure norms in 2026. Their cohort study spans Norway and Sweden. Mothers were recruited during pregnancy. Babies were checked at 3, 6, and 12 months. A cuff method called oscillometry was used for all readings.
In all, 2,100 infants had readings in infancy. Good readings came from 1,778 infants. Median top pressure sat near 95 at each age. Bottom pressure sat near 56 or 57. Mean pressure sat near 69 to 72 at the three checks. Values held steady across the first year. The norms can help spot odd readings early. They give clinics a shared yardstick for the first year.
