1. Important facts about blood pressure and
self-measurement
 Blood pressure is the pressure of the blood flowing in the
arteries generated by the pumping of the heart. Two values, the
systolic (upper) value and the diastolic (lower) value, are
always measured.
 The device indicates the pulse rate (the number of times the
heart beats in a minute).
 Permanently high blood pressure values can damage your
health and must be treated by your doctor!
 Always discuss your values with your doctor and tell them if you
have noticed anything unusual or feel unsure. Never rely on
single blood pressure readings.
 There are several causes of excessively high blood pressure
values. Your doctor will explain them in more detail and offer
treatment where appropriate.
 Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages of
drugs or initiate a treatment without consulting your doctor.
