Q: Why is the blood pressure value measured at home lower than the blood pressure value
measured in the hospital?
A: I often feel nervous when measuring blood pressure in the hospital, so the measured value will
be high. Because I feel calm when measuring in my own home, sometimes it is
20mmHg~30mmHg (2.7kPa~4.0kPa) lower than the hospital's measurement value. It is very
important to know the blood pressure measurement value when you are calm at home.
Answer: If the measurement position is higher than the heart, the measurement value will also be
low. If the table where the Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor is placed is too high, it will cause
the armband to be higher than the heart, and the blood pressure value measured at this time will
also be low.
Q: Why is blood pressure measured at home higher than at the hospital?
A: If you are taking blood pressure medication, it will cause your blood pressure to rise when it
loses its potency.After a few hours of taking blood pressure medication, the effect wears off and
blood pressure increases accordingly.Consult your doctor for details.
A: Incorrectly positioned armbands can sometimes lead to high measurements.When the
armband is in the wrong position, the blood pressure monitor has a hard time picking up arterial
signals, and the blood pressure readings are too high.Please confirm again that the binding
position of the armband is correct.
A: Wrapping the armband too loosely can sometimes lead to high measurements.If the band is
wrapped too loosely, the pressure does not reach the arteries, so the blood pressure is measured
higher than it actually is.Please be careful not to leave a gap between the cuff and the arm when
binding.
A: Incorrect posture during measurement can sometimes lead to a higher measurement
result.Measurement postures such as sitting cross-legged, sitting on a couch or at a low desk, or
bending forward, can result in high blood pressure readings because of abdominal pressure or
because the armband is lower than the heart.
Q: Why is the blood pressure value measured each time different?
A: The blood pressure will vary according to the measurement time period. Even within a day,
such a change will occur. In order to manage blood pressure correctly, please take measurements
at the same time every day.
Q: Why is there pain and numbness around the arm strap?
A: This is a temporary phenomenon. Please do not worry.Some pain and numbness may be felt in
the arm as blood flow in the artery is temporarily stopped by tightening the arm band to measure
blood pressure.When the armband is removed, a short rest can relieve the pain.
