Your blood pressure is not fixed and can rise and fall depending on what you are doing and what is happening around you. When having their blood pressure taken some patients suffer from ‘White Coat syndrome’, where their blood pressure is higher in a medical setting than at home therefore giving an inaccurate reading.
Our 24 hour blood pressure monitoring service can provide a more accurate reading of patients’ blood pressure for suspected hypertension. Patients are asked to purchase a small digital monitor and take regular checks to record.
