24hour blood pressure monitoring
With a portable blood pressure device and a cuff, blood pressure is taken for 24 hours and recorded.
The 24-hour blood pressure monitoring is made to
- Diagnose increased blood pressure
- Control an existing blood pressure therapy
Examining procedure:
The blood pressure cuff will be put on in our medical practice, and attached to a recording machine. Automated measurements will be made for 24 hours. After the device is returned, a computerised analysis of the results will be made. You must not have a bath or shower with the recorder on.
