FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q A What do my blood pressure numbers mean? Blood pressure is determined by the circulatory center in the brain and is made up of two numbers: Systolic (the ﬁrst number): shows how much pressure the blood is exerting against the artery walls as the heart contracts (pumps). Diastolic (the second number): shows how much pressure the blood is exerting against the artery walls while the heart rests (between beats).

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Q Why are my blood pressure readings diﬀerent than at my doctor’s oﬃce? A Blood pressure is a variable body parameter that ﬂuctuates throughout the day. To compare your pressure levels, you should perform a daily measurement under comparable situations. Make sure that you feel relaxed and are not disturbed by your environment. In addition, check for proper cuﬀ ﬁt, tightness, and artery alignment. If you still need assistance, call 1-800-568-4147.
