ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE
What is Blood Pressure?
Blood pressure is a measure of the force of blood flowing against the walls of the arteries. Arterial blood pressure is
constantly changing during the course of the heart's cycle. The highest pressure in the cycle is called the Systolic Blood
Pressure; the lowest is the Diastolic Blood Pressure. Both pressure readings, the Systolic and Diastolic, are necessary to
enable a doctor to evaluate the status of a patient's blood pressure.
We recommend contacting your physician if you see this indicator frequently
Why Measuring Blood Pressure at Home?
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety, or the time of day, can influence your blood pressure. A single
measurement may not be sufficient for an accurate diagnosis. Thus it is best to try and measure your blood pressure at
the same time each day, to get an accurate indication of any changes in blood pressure. Blood pressure is typically low
in the morning and increases from afternoon to evening. It is lower in the summer and higher in the winter.
Classification of Blood Pressure by WHO
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Society of Hypertension (ISH) developed the Blood
Pressure Classification shown in this figure. This classification is based on the blood pressure values measured on
people in a sitting position in outpatient departments of hospitals.
What is Irregular Heartbeat?
An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat rhythm that varies by 25% from the average of all heartbeats during
the systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurement. It is important that you are relaxed, remain still and do not talk
during measurements.
