1. Important Facts about Blood Pressure and Self-
Measurement
•
Blood pressure
is the pressure of the blood flowing in the
arteries generated by the pumping of the heart. Two values, the
systolic
(upper) value and the
diastolic
(lower) value, are
always measured.
•
The instrument also indicates the
pulse rate
(the number of
times the heart beats in a minute).
•
Permanently high blood pressure values can damage
your health and must be treated by your doctor!
•
Always discuss your values with your doctor and tell him/her if
you have noticed anything unusual or feel unsure.
Never rely
on single blood pressure readings.
•
Enter your readings in the enclosed
blood pressure diary
. This
will give your doctor a quick overview.
•
There are many causes of excessively
high blood pressure
values
. Your doctor will explain them in more detail and offer
treatment where appropriate. Besides medication, relaxation
techniques, weight loss and exercise can also lower your blood
pressure.
•
Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages of
any drugs prescribed by your doctor!
•
Depending on physical exertion and condition, blood pressure is
subject to wide fluctuations as the day progresses.
You should
therefore take your measurements in the same quiet
conditions and when you feel relaxed!
Take at least two
measurements per day, one in the morning and one in the
evening.
•
It is quite normal for two measurements taken in quick succes-
sion to produce significantly
different results
.
•
Deviations
between measurements taken by your doctor or in
the pharmacy and those taken at home are quite normal, as
these situations are completely different.
•
Several measurements
provide a much clearer picture than
just one single measurement.
•
Leave a small break
of at least 15 seconds between two
measurements.
•
If you are
pregnant
, you should monitor your blood pressure
very closely as it can change drastically during this time!
