About Blood Pressure
Why Measure Blood Pressure at Home?
Blood pressure measured at a clinic or doctor's office may cause
apprehension and can produce an elevated reading, 25 to 30 mmHg
higher than that measured at home. Home measurement reduces the
effects of outside influences on blood pressure readings, supplements
the doctor's readings and provides a more accurate, complete blood
pressure history.

Blood Pressure Variations
An individual's blood pressure varies greatly on a daily and seasonal
basis. It may vary by 30 to 50 mmHg due to various conditions during
the day. In hypertensive individuals, variations are even more
pronounced. Normally, the blood pressure rises while at work or play
and falls to its lowest levels during
sleep.
