Why are my blood pressure readings dierent than at my
doctor’s oce?
Lower readings: Many experience what is called“White Coat Hypertension”
when their blood pressure is measured by a doctor. White Coat
Hypertension refers to blood pressure that rises above its usual level when
measured in a clinical setting, such as a doctor’s oce. It is named for the
typical white coat uniform worn by health care providers.
Higher readings: Blood pressure a variable body parameter that is subject
to normal uctuations throughout the day. To compare your pressure
levels, you should perform a daily measurement under comparable
conditions. Make sure that you feel relaxed and are not disturbed by your
environment. In addition, check for proper cu t, tightness, and artery
alignment. If you still need assistance, call 1-800-568-4147.

FOLLOW THESE STEPS FOR BEST RESULTS
My blood pressure varies. How do I know what my true blood
pressure is?
The average of several tests, obtained over several days under similar
conditions, is the best way to accurately determine your blood pressure.
It’s vital to measure your pressure consistently and regularly to better
manage your health. See chart below for daily variation.
