Product Information

If you’re a healthy adult aged 40 to 74, it’s a good idea to get your blood pressure checked every five years (during an NHS Health Check if in England or Wales).

Detection Modes: Detection modes may offer a 7-day self-measurement program as well as a 'Usual Mode' for 3 consecutive measurements for an average reading. Regular home blood pressure monitoring across a population of 50,000 patients could prevent up to 500 heart attacks and 745 strokes over five years.We do not provide any individualised advice on prevention, treatment and management for patients or their family members. The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products. We've worked with BHF nurses to make it easier to measure and manage your blood pressure at home by pulling all the information you'll need together in one simple place.

Check with your healthcare team how often to measure your blood pressure at home if you have your own monitor. The first is to record your result, time and date with pen and paper, the other is to choose a blood pressure monitor with a storage memory.When people have their blood pressure checked in the clinic it can be higher than expected, especially if they feel nervous or anxious.
