Quick and easy: daily blood pressure monitoring
Through the blood, every cell in the body receives nutrients and oxygen. Additionally, waste products from metabolism are transported away from the cells and organs. To maintain what is called blood pressure and the associated flow in the blood vessels, the heart must contract and expand regularly. Internal and external influences can directly affect blood pressure; even small changes show notable variations. Physical or emotional stress, changes in weather, or climatic variations are just a few factors. To obtain reliable data on actual blood pressure, regular measurements are necessary. With the visomat comfort eco arm blood pressure monitor, this is easy and quick.

How to correctly measure blood pressure in daily life
In general, the measurement should be done at rest and while seated. Before the measurement, one should wait five minutes for the circulatory system to calm down. If multiple measurements are needed, there should be a waiting time of at least three minutes between them. Regular checks are best performed at least twice a day:
- The first measurement is taken in the morning upon waking.
- The second in the evening.
Ideally, measurements should always be taken at the same time and under identical conditions to obtain optimal comparative values.
