Why Monitor Your Blood Pressure at Home?
Many people experience "White Coat Syndrome", which is a temporary elevation of blood
pressure during a visit at their physician's office. Although only temporary, it can cause blood
pressure to rise and give a false indication of a person's true blood pressure.
Whether or not you experience "White Coat Syndrome", home blood pressure monitoring
provides:
1) The opportunity to supplement your physician's office measurements.
2) An accurate indication of any change.
3) A record to assist your physician in evaluating your health and making important
decisions.
4) Consistent, daily measurements of your blood pressure.
NOTE: Variations in your individual readings should only be interpreted by your physician or
trained healthcare professional.
General Blood Pressure Information
What is Blood Pressure?
Blood pressure is the pressure that is exerted by blood flowing against the walls of the blood
vessels throughout your body.
Your heart, which is the center of the circulatory system, provides the force for the blood to flow
or circulate. When your heart contracts or beats, the blood is forced through the blood vessels
increasing the pressure. This is the highest pressure in the cycle or what is referred to as
SYSTOLIC blood pressure. In between beats, your heart relaxes and your blood pressure
decreases. This is referred to as DIASTOLIC blood pressure.
This complete series of events, which occurs in a single heartbeat, is known as the CARDIAC
CYCLE.
Your MABIS Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor will automatically read your blood pressure and
display both systolic and diastolic readings on the screen. Your systolic will be positioned as the
upper number and the diastolic reading will be the lower number.
