Blood Pressure MonitoringBlood Pressure Monitoring is a simple and non-invasive procedure used to measure the force of blood against the walls of blood vessels, specifically the arteries. This measurement is expressed as systolic pressure (the highest pressure when the heart beats) and diastolic pressure (the lowest pressure when the heart is resting between beats). High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, can lead to serious health problems such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease if not properly monitored and managed.
Blood Pressure Monitoring can be done in a number of ways, including manual monitoring with a blood pressure cuff and stethoscope, automated monitoring with an electronic device, and continuous monitoring with a wearable device or implantable sensor. Manual monitoring is performed by a healthcare professional, while automated and continuous monitoring can be performed at home or in a clinical setting.
Regular monitoring of blood pressure is important for individuals with hypertension or those at risk of developing the condition. By monitoring blood pressure, healthcare providers can track changes in blood pressure over time, adjust medications if needed, and monitor the effectiveness of lifestyle changes or other treatments. Individuals can also use home monitoring to track their blood pressure and share the results with their healthcare provider, helping to ensure that their blood pressure is properly managed.
