1. Important Facts about Blood Pressure and Self-
Measurement
Blood pressure
is the pressure of the blood flowing in the arteries
generated by the pumping of the heart. Two values, the
systolic
(upper) value and the
diastolic
(lower) value, are always measured.
The device indicates the pulse rate (the number of times the heart
beats in a minute).
Permanently high blood pressure values can damage your
health and must be treated by your doctor!
Always discuss your values with your doctor and tell him/her if you
have noticed anything unusual or feel unsure. Never rely on
single blood pressure readings.
