1. Systolic and diastolic blood pressures
The cardiovascular system has the important func-
tion of supplying all the organs and tissues in the
body with sufcient blood and removing metabolic
products. The heart contracts and relaxes at a
regular rate of about 60-80 times a minute. The pres-
sure of the owing blood on the arterial walls, which
arises when the heart contracts, is termed systolic.
The pressure in the ensuing relaxation phase when
the heart is relled with blood is termed diastolic.
When you perform daily monitoring you measure
both gures.
2. Why you have to measure different parameters
Our blood pressure responds to external and internal
inuences like a sensitive measuring instrument. It
can be affected by even slight changes. That makes
it easier to understand why gures measured at the
doctor‘s or pharmacist‘s are often higher than those
you measure at home in your accustomed environ-
ment. Changes in weather, changes in climate,
physical work and emotional stress can also have
an effect.
3. Why measure blood pressure
regularly?
The time of day also has an inuence on the level
of blood pressure. During the day the gures are
usually higher than during periods of rest at night.
For this reason, one-off measurements and irregular
measurements will tell you little about your actual
blood pressure. Reliable assessment is only possible
if individual measurements are taken regularly.
Discuss the results with your doctor.
