Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about blood pressure monitoring
Why is blood pressure monitoring important?
Blood pressure monitoring is crucial because high blood pressure (hypertension) often has no symptoms but significantly increases your risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems. Regular monitoring helps detect hypertension early, allows you to track the effectiveness of treatments or lifestyle changes, and provides valuable information to your healthcare provider. Home monitoring can also identify “white coat hypertension” (high readings only in clinical settings) and “masked hypertension” (normal readings in clinic but high at home).
What do systolic and diastolic numbers mean?
Blood pressure measurements consist of two numbers: systolic (top number) and diastolic (bottom number). The systolic pressure measures the force against your artery walls when your heart beats and pumps blood out. The diastolic pressure measures the force when your heart is at rest between beats. Both are measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). A reading of 120/80 mmHg means a systolic pressure of 120 and diastolic pressure of 80. While both numbers are important, for adults over 50, systolic pressure is often considered more significant as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
How often should I check my blood pressure?
The frequency of blood pressure checks depends on your current health status: If you have normal blood pressure (under 120/80), check it at least once every two years. If you have elevated blood pressure (120-129/less than 80), check it monthly. If you have stage 1 hypertension (130-139/80-89), check it at least weekly. If you have stage 2 hypertension (140/90 or higher), check it daily or as directed by your doctor. If you’re adjusting medications or lifestyle changes, your doctor may recommend checking twice daily (morning and evening) for a period. Always take 2-3 readings each time, about 1-2 minutes apart, and record the average.
What factors can affect blood pressure readings?
Many factors can temporarily affect blood pressure readings: Recent physical activity or exercise can elevate readings. Consumption of caffeine, nicotine, or alcohol within 30 minutes of measurement. Full bladder can add 10-15 mmHg to your reading. Stress or anxiety, including “white coat syndrome” in medical settings. Temperature – cold environments may increase blood pressure. Certain medications like decongestants or NSAIDs. Crossed legs during measurement can increase readings. Talking during the measurement. Improper cuff size or placement. For accurate readings, avoid these factors when possible, rest for 5 minutes before measuring, and ensure proper technique.
