REGULAR BP CHECK OR 24-HOUR ABPM: KNOW THE DIFFERENCE!
Monitoring your blood pressure is an important step in protecting your heart health. But did you know that a single blood pressure reading may not show the complete picture?
REGULAR BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKING
Measures your blood pressure at a specific time. It is a simple and convenient way to monitor your blood pressure during routine checkups or at home.
24 HOUR AMBULATORY BLOOD PRESSURE MONITORING (ABPM)
Uses a portable device to automatically measure your blood pressure at regular intervals throughout the day and night, including while you sleep. It helps your doctor understand your blood pressure patterns beyond the clinic.
WHEN SHOULD YOU CONSIDER ABPM?
If your blood pressure readings are inconsistent, repeatedly elevated, or different at home and in the clinic, consult your doctor to determine whether 24-Hour ABPM is appropriate for you. Your doctor can assess your condition and recommend this test if needed.
Remember, one reading is just a snapshot, while 24-hour monitoring provides a broader picture of your blood pressure patterns.
Know your numbers. Take care of your heart!
