What is the normal systolic blood pressure range for toddlers?

• A. 80 to 90
• B. 60 to 70
• C. 90 to 110
• D. 100 to 120

Answer: (A)

In toddlers, systolic blood pressure is lower than in adults and gradually rises as they grow. For the toddler years (around 1–3 years old), the systolic value is commonly seen in the high 80s to around 100 mmHg, with many quick references noting a representative range around the 80s to 90s as a typical snapshot. Among the given options, the 80–90 range best reflects this common, lower-to-mid normal area for a toddler. Values much lower (60–70) would suggest hypotension, while higher ranges (90–110 or 100–120) are possible but less representative of the typical toddler norm on a general scale. In real clinical practice, exact values are interpreted using age-, height-, and sex-specific percentile charts, but for quick testing purposes, 80–90 captures the expected toddler range.
