3Helpful tips

Here are a few helpful tips to help you obtain more accurate readings:

• Do not measure your blood pressure immediately after consuming a large meal. To

obtain more accurate readings, please wait one hour before measuring.

• Do not smoke or drink alcohol before measuring your blood pressure.

• You should not be physically tired or exhausted while taking a measurement.

• It is important that you relax during measurement. Try to take 15-minutes rest

before a reading.

• Do not take measurements if you are under stress or under tension.

• Take your blood pressure at normal body temperature. If you are feeling cold or

hot, wait a while before taking a measurement.

• If the monitor is stored at very low temperature (near freezing), have it placed at a

warm location for at least one hour before using it.

• Wait about 5 minutes before taking the next pressure measurement.

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.
