What are normal results and when should I see a
doctor?
●
The following table explains the pressure ranges and degree of hypertension according to
the World Health Organization:
●
It is recommend that you record your blood pressure values frequently and discuss them with
your doctor. If your systolic values are frequently above 130 and/or the diastolic values above
85, you should consult your doctor. It is normal that blood pressure values are sometimes
higher and lower and there is no need to worry if the results are sometimes higher than the
above limits. But if your pressure is above the limits in most cases,you should consult
your doctor.
What is”White Coat Hypertension”?
●
White Coat Hypertension (WCH) is the popular name for the effect
that the patients blood pressure might be detected on a higher
level when the measurement is performed by a doctor (in his
typical white coat) or a nurse. This effect is caused because one
often can be excited or nervous during such “official”
measurements and the pressure will be accordingly higher. The
problem is that the person may not have a pressure that is too
high under normal conditions but might be diagnosed as
hypertensive based on the doctors measurement. Home devices
are the best choice to prevent this “white coat effect”. Some long
term studies showed that people who have a higher pressure at
the doctor also have a high risk to develop hypertension. Thus,
these patients should check their pressure frequently.
