Potential Solution
·
Blood pressure may vary throughout the day, as shown below.
Therefore, the best time to test is when examinees can measure regularly on a daily
basis. It is recommended to test at the same time each day under the same conditions.
·
The automatic monitor applies pressure to the arm to measure
blood pressure. Consecutive testing may put a strain on blood vessel. Rest for
about 5 minutes between tests.
·
If you had blood drawn or had an injection given in either arm, it is
recommended to wait at least 1 hour before testing, or measure with another arm.
· The BPBIO750 can operate at 10-40ºC (50-104ºF). However, if the examinee
feels that the temperature is too low or high, the blood vessels expand or
contract, which will affect the blood pressure results. It is recommended to test
in a stable condition in an environment where the temperature is at a comfortable
level.
· The examinee will not be able to perform a natural and stable test if they are
testing in a loud or disruptive environment. It is recommended to test in an
environment free from noise and disturbances.
·
The blood pressure reading may change:
- Within 1 hour after meals
- After having alcohol or caffeine
- After smoking
- After taking a bath
- After exercise
- After using the restroom
- When testing in an unfamiliar location
· Blood pressure can change depending on the environment.
Test in the same environment for consistent results.
· Psychologically, people tend to feel more relaxed at home than the hospital.
Blood pressure tends to be higher when measured at the hospital than at home.
