Blood Pressure Monitors
Measuring blood pressure
Blood pressure monitors are used to measure blood pressure.Blood pressure (BP) is the pressure exerted by circulating blood on blood-vessel walls. Blood pressure that is too low or too high is dangerous and poses a health risk. Blood pressure measurements consist out of two readings: the systolic pressure (upper reading) and the diastolic pressure (lower reading). Systolic pressure is the pressure exerted on blood-vessel walls during the heart’s contraction, when blood is pumped out to the body. Diastolic pressure is the pressure exerted on blood-vessel walls during the heart’s expansion, when the heart relaxes and fills with blood again.
Blood pressure monitors for the upper-arm and wrist
Blood pressure can be measured inter alia via the upper-arm, the wrist and the finger. PhysioSupplies offers differentblood pressure monitors for the upper-arm and the wrist . The most commonly used method of measuring blood pressure is to measure it on the upper-arm. A cuff is first placed around the upper-arm, allowing the systolic and diastolic pressures to then be measured. Blood-pressure monitors for the wrist are equivalent in size to a watch; these monitors allow for quick blood pressure measurements.
