Why Measure Your Blood Pressure?
Among the various health problems afflicting modern people, problems associated with high blood
pressure are by far the most common. High blood pressure's dangerously strong correlation with
cardiovascular diseases and high morbidity has made measuring blood pressures a necessity of
identifying those at risk.
Blood Pressure Standard
The World Health Organization (WHO) and National Blood Pressure Education Program
Coordinating Committee have developed a blood pressure standard, according to which areas of
flow- and high- risk blood pressure are identified. This standard, however, is a general guideline as
individual's blood pressure varies among different people and different age groups, etc.
It is important that you consult
with your physician regularly.
Your physician will tell you your
normal blood pressure range as
well as the point at which you
will be considerate at risk. For
reliable
monitoring
reference of blood pressure, it
is recommended to keep long
term records.
Blood Pressure Fluctuation
Blood pressure fluctuates all the time!
You should not be over worried
if you encountered two or three
readings at high levels. Blood
pressure changes over the
month and even throughout the
day. It is also influenced by
season and temperature.
