Measurement Method
(fluctuations) in pressure. These fluctuations are produced as
a result of the pressure the cuff has placed around the arm
and are, in a basic sense, the arteries pulsing (getting larger
and smaller) with each beat. The monitor then measures how
high and how quickly these pulses occur and converts that
information into a digital value. A special valve, called an
electrode, deflates the monitor automatically when the
measurement is complete.
Special Conditions
All Walgreens blood pressure monitors are safe and accurate
to use with arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature
beats and atrial fibrillation.
