24 Hour Blood Pressure Monitor

Prolonged blood pressure monitoring provides a precise analysis of blood pressure profile

Point 2

What is 24 hour blood pressure?

You will wear a blood pressure cuff around your upper arm for 24 hours (including overnight). This will inflate and deflate approximately 30 times over the testing period.

Point 1

Why would you need 24 hour?

Often a single reading of your blood pressure in the clinic or GP surgery can be inaccurate. We offer 24 hour monitoring of blood pressure which provides a more realistic assessment of your blood pressure over this time period.
