professional to determine your NORMAL blood pressure.
Variations in Blood Pressure
Blood pressure can be influenced by many factors. This change can occur from moment
to moment. Normally, blood pressure is lowest during the sleeping period and rises during
the day. The graph below represents the variations in blood pressure shown over a day
with measurements taken every 5 minutes.
The dotted line represents the
sleep period. The rise in
blood pressure at 1 p.m. (A in
the graph) reflects stressful
occurrence, and at 7 p.m.
(B in the graph), a period
of exercise.
