Why Do I Get A Different Blood Pressure At Home Compared To The Hospital - HoMedics BPW-3010-EU Bedienungsanleitung

Why does my blood pressure fluctuate
throughout the day?
1. Individual blood pressure varies
multiple times everyday. It is also
affected by the way you tie your cuff
and your measurement position, so
please take the measurement under
the same conditions.
2. If the person takes medicine, the
pressure will vary more.
3. Wait at least 3 minutes for another
measurement.
Why do I get a different blood
pressure at home compared to the
hospital?
The blood pressure is different even
throughout the day due to weather,
emotion, exercise etc, Also, there is
the "white coat" effect, which means
blood pressure usually increases in
clinical settings.
Is the result the same if measuring
on the right wrist?
It is ok for both wrists, but there will
be some different results for different
people.
We suggest you measure the same
wrist every time.
What you need to pay attention to when you
measure your blood pressure at home:
• If the cuff is tied properly.
• If the cuff is too tight or too loose.
• If the cuff is tied on the wrist.
• If you feel anxious.
Taking 2-3 deep breaths before beginning
will be better for measuring.
Advice: Relax yourself for 4-5 minutes until
you calm down.
