MONITORING BLOOD PRESSURE AT HOME
If left undiagnosed or untreated, “hypertension” (high blood pressure)
can lead to heart attack, heart failure, stroke, kidney disease or failure, vision loss,
sexual dysfunction, angina (chest pain), and/or peripheral artery disease. With this
in mind, the American Heart Association recommends that people diagnosed with
high blood pressure purchase a blood pressure monitor for home use. To ensure
that these monitors provide accurate readings, patients should take their
monitors with them to their next doctor’s visit. A nurse or physician can inspect
the device to see that the cuff is the correct size and that the patient is using the
monitor correctly. The doctor can also compare the reading on the monitor with
the one in the office.
Once you’ve purchased your monitor, bring it to your next health care appointment.
Have your doctor check to see that you are using it correctly and getting the
same results as the equipment in the office. Plan to bring your monitor in once a
year to make sure the readings are accurate. For more information, please call or
visit VILLAGE PHARMACY in the Colonial Shopping Center (781-334-3133). For
your convenience, we offer free prescription delivery five days a week and scheduled
weekend deliveries upon request.
HINT: A reading of 140/90 or above is generally considered to be indicative of
Stage 1 hypertension.
