Comparing AM and PM Average Blood Pressure

Average AM and PM systolic and diastolic blood pressures are displayed in order to allow you to compare readings from both time periods.

Use of the AM and PM average blood pressure comparison function can aid in the detection of a blood pressure pattern known as “early morning surge” in which blood pressure rises rapidly in the morning.

These can only be compared when year, date and time have set up. These can be compared after readings have been saved, and even when the unit is turned off.

AM… 3:00 AM to 11:00 AM

2. Press the button again.

• The average AM and PM diastolic blood pressure will be displayed.

• The AM and PM average systolic and diastolic blood pressures are displayed alternately with each press of the button.
