Why does my blood pressure 

fluctuate throughout the

day?

Is the result the same 

if measuring on the 

right arm?

Why do I get a different 

blood pressure at home 

compared to the hospital?

1. Individual blood pressure varies 

multiple times everyday. It is also 

affected by the way you tie your cuff 

and your measurement position, so 

please take the measurement under the 

same conditions.

2.If the person takes medicine, the 

pressure will vary more.
3.Wait at least 3 minutes for another 

measurement.

The blood pressure is different even 

throughout the day due to weather, 

emotion, exercise etc, Also, there is the 

“white coat” effect, which means blood 

pressure usually increases in clinical 

settings.

What you need to pay 

attention to when you measure 

your blood pressure at home: 

If the cuff is tied properly. 

If the cuff is too tight or too loose.

If the cuff is tied on the upper arm.

If you feel anxious.

Taking 2-3 deep breaths before 

beginning will be better for measuring.        

Advice: Relax yourself for 4-5 

minutes until you calm down.

It is ok for both arms, but there 

will be some different results for 

different people. We suggest you 

measure the same arm every time.
