24 Hour Blood pressure Monitoring.

Your blood pressure measures the amount of work your heart has to do to pump blood around your body.

Over half of people with high blood pressure don’t even know, and this is serious as high blood pressure leaves you at risk of a heart attack or stroke.

A 24 hour blood pressure monitor can put your fears or any uncertainty at bay. If you have had a high reading in your doctors or pharmacy, then the 24 monitor will give a reading of your blood pressure even while you sleep.

Who Needs One?

  • If you are on blood pressure medication
  • Have had a high blood pressure reading
  • If you have diabetes or high cholesterol
  • If your blood pressure is difficult to control

How It Works.

Michael Austin of Hunters Pharmacy will fit you monitor and explain how it will work during the time you are wearing it. It consists of a cuff which goes around your arm and a monitor, no bigger than a mobile phone.

Every 30 minutes the monitor will take a reading. You will feel this happening as the cuff will become tight on your arm. You should stay still while this happens, only for 30 seconds or so.

The next day you will return to Hunters and Michael will remove the device and take you through your readings, which you may then want to discuss with your doctor.
