About Blood Pressure
What are systolic pressure and diastolic pressure?
When ventricles contract and pump blood out of the heart, the blood pressure reaches it’s maximum value in the cycle, which is called systolic pressure. When the ventricles relax, the blood pressure reaches it’s minimum value in the cycle, which is called diastolic pressure.
What is the standard blood pressure classification?
The blood pressure classification published by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Society of Hypertension (ISH) in 1999 is as shown to right
Only a physician or doctor can tell your normal BP range. Please contact your doctor if your measurement falls outside of the normal range. Please note that only a doctor can tell whether your blood pressure value has reached a dangerous point.
Why does my blood pressure fluctuate throughout the day?
- Individual blood pressure varies multiple times every day. It is also affected by the way you tie your measurement cuff and the position your body is in while taking the measurement, so please try to take the measurement under the same conditions.
- The pressure will vary under the influence of different medicines.
- Wait at least 3 minutes between measurements.
Why do I get different blood pressure measurements at home compared to the hospital?
Blood pressure is different throughout the day due to weather, emotions, exercise etc., as well as the “white coat” effect that occurs at hospitals, where blood pressure is usually increased in clinical settings.
Is the result the same if measuring on the right wrist?
It is fine for either wrist, however there may be different results for different people. We suggest that you measure from the same wrist every time. What you need to pay attention to when you measure your blood pressure at home:
- Check that the cuff is tied properly.
- Check that the cuff isn’t too tight or too loose.
- If you are feeling anxious, take 2-3 deep breaths before beginning. If you are still feeling anxious, relax yourself for 4-5 minutes before attempting to measure.
