8. Useful Information on Blood Pressure
What is Blood Pressure?
Blood pressure is a measure of the pressure exerted by blood on the walls of the arteries. Blood pressure constantly changes throughout the cardiac cycle. The highest pressure during the cycle is called systolic blood pressure; the lowest is diastolic blood pressure. Both pressure measurements (systolic and diastolic) allow a doctor to evaluate a patient's blood pressure.
What is Arrhythmia?
Arrhythmia is a condition in which the heart rhythm is abnormal due to failures in the bio-electrical system that controls heartbeats. Classic symptoms include skipped heartbeats, premature contractions, abnormally fast pulse (tachycardia), or abnormally slow pulse (bradycardia).
Why is it Desirable to Measure Blood Pressure at Home?
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety, or the time of day can influence your blood pressure. A single measurement may not be sufficient for an accurate diagnosis. Therefore, it is preferable to measure your blood pressure at the same time each day to get a precise indication of any changes in your blood pressure. Blood pressure is generally lower in the morning and increases in the afternoon and evening. It is lower in summer than in winter.
