Establishing Baseline Measurements

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE

The most important method to get an accurate blood pressure measurement is consistency. To get the most benefit out of your monitor, it is important to establish a “baseline measurement.” This helps build a foundation of meas- urements that you can use to compare against future readings. To build this baseline measurement, devote two weeks for consistent blood pressure moni- toring. This involves doing everything the same way when you measure (e.g. measuring during the same time of day, in the same location, sitting in the same chair, using the same cuff, etc.). Once you establish your baseline meas- urement, you can start evaluating if your measurement has been affected based on things lifestyle changes or medication treatment.

How Do I Record My Blood Pressure?

Blood pressure readings are typically recorded with the systolic pressure writ- ten first, followed by a slash mark and the diastolic pressure. For example, 120 mmHg systolic and 80 mmHg diastolic measurements are written as 120/80. Pulse is simply written with the letter “P” followed by the pulse rate—P 72, for example. Please see the back of the manual for the blood pressure tracking record.
