Why are the blood pressure values measured at home different
from those measured at the doctor's office?
Blood pressure varies 24 hours a day.
In addition, it can change greatly depending on the weather, your
mental state, exercise, etc.
In particular, there is the phenomenon of "White uniform hypertension"
at doctor's offices, where the blood pressure measured in a doctor's
office is higher because of stress or worry.
In addition, if the blood pressure measured at home is sometimes
higher and sometimes lower than the blood pressure measured at
the doctor's office, the following can be considered. Please pay
attention to these points when taking measurements.
Is the pressure cuff wrapped firmly?
• Make sure that the pressure cuff is not
wrapped too loosely or too tightly.
• Is the pressure cuff wrapped around the
upper arm? Make sure it is not partly
covering the elbow.
For how to wrap the pressure cuff
correctly, refer to p. 9.
Do you feel worried or irritated?
Before taking measurements, take 2 or 3
deep breaths and relax to stabilize blood
pressure. In addition, it Is recommended that
you sit quietly for about 4 to 5 minutes
before taking measurements.
