5 Blood pressure
5.1 What is Blood Pressure?
Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the artery tube while blood flows through the arteries. The
pressure measured when the heart contracts and sends blood out of the heart is systolic (highest). The
pressure measured when
the heart dilates with blood flowing back into the heart is called diastolic (lowest) blood pressure.
5.2 Why Measure Your Blood Pressure?
Among the various health problems afflicting modern people, problems associated with high blood
pressure are by far the most common. High blood pressure's dangerously strong correlation with
cardiovascular diseases and high morbidity has made measuring blood pressures a necessity of
identifying those at risk.
• If the unit is stored in a cold place, allow it to acclimatize at room temperature
before use.
• Do not take a measurement in a low (less than 41 °F/5 °C) or high (more than
104 °F/40 °C) temperature or you may get the inaccurate readings.
• Wait 30 ~ 45 minutes before measurement if you’ve just consumed
beverages containing caffeine or smoked cigarettes.
• Rest at least 5 ~ 10 minutes before taking a measurement.

temperature.
