What should I do if I get a high blood pressure reading?

A single high reading is not an immediate cause for alarm. If you get a reading that is higher than normal, wait 5 minutes and take your blood pressure a few more times. If your readings are still high, consult your doctor to verify if there’ s a health concern.

What should I do when I keep getting error messages during my measurements?

In the user manual that came with the monitor, there is a section included on on the different types of error messages. Please review this section of the manual. If this does not fully resolve the issue, please contact us (support@mdcubes.com).

What is blood pressure?

Blood pressure is the measure of the force of blood pushing against blood vessel walls.

A blood pressure reading has a top number (systolic) and bottom number (diastolic). Systolic represents the pressure as your heart contracts to pump blood to your body. Diastolic represents the pressure between beats, when your heart relaxes.

Which is more important, the systolic or diastolic reading?

Both pressure readings are important, they are necessary to enable a doctor to evaluate the status of a patient’s blood pressure.

What is the dangerously high blood pressure?

High blood pressure, also called hypertension, is dangerous because it makes the heart work harder to pump blood out to the body and contributes to hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis), stroke, kidney disease, and the development of heart failure.

For almost everyone the risks of high blood pressure affect you in the long term. So, the important thing is to make sure that you know what your blood pressure is and if it is high that you receive treatment and stick to it.

What is "normal" blood pressure?

A blood pressure reading has a top number (systolic) and bottom number (diastolic). Normal blood pressure is less than 120 over 80 (120/80).

People whose blood pressure is above the normal range should ask their doctor how to lower it.

Are there differences between left-arm vs. right-arm blood pressure?

Blood pressure measurement values vary from the left arm to the right arm.

Several studies have been done to determine what is a normal variation between right and left arm. In general, any difference of 10 mm Hg or less is considered normal and is not a cause for concern.

Who should monitor blood pressure at home?

Home blood pressure monitoring may be especially useful for:

1. Anyone diagnosed with high blood pressure (HBP or hypertension).

2. Individuals starting high blood pressure treatment to determine its effectiveness.

3. People requiring closer monitoring, especially individuals with risk factors for high blood pressure and/or conditions related to high blood pressure.

4. Pregnant women, experiencing pregnancy-induced hypertension.

5. Evaluating potentially false readings, like:

(1) People who only have high readings at the doctor’ s office (“white coat” hypertension).

(2) People who only have high readings at home but not at the doctor’ s office (“masked” hypertension).

How to use a home blood pressure monitor?

Be still. Don't smoke, drink caffeinated beverages or exercise within 30 minutes before measuring your blood pressure. Empty your bladder and ensure at least 5 minutes of quiet rest before measurements.

Sit correctly. Sit with your back straight and supported (on a dining chair, rather than a sofa). Your feet should be flat on the floor and your legs should not be crossed. Your arm should be supported on a flat surface (such as a table) with the upper arm at heart level. Make sure the bottom of the cuff is placed directly above the bend of the elbow.

Measure at the same time every day. It’s important to take the readings at the same time each day, such as morning and evening. It is best to take the readings daily however ideally beginning 2 weeks after a change in treatment and during the week before your next appointment.

Take multiple readings and record the results. Each time you measure, take two or three readings one minute apart and record the results.

Don't take the measurement over clothes.

How do I know if I have put on the arm cuff correctly?

Following the below directions:

1. Make sure you have removed any tight-fitting clothing from your left arm.

2. Put your left arm through the cuff loop. The bottom of the cuff should be about one-half inch

above your elbow.

3. Turn your arm so your palm is facing up.

4. Adjust the cuff around your arm so that the tubing runs down the center of your arm.

5. Secure the cuff so it stays in place.

What is an Electrocardiogram (EKG/ECG)?
An ECG is the record of the electrical activity of the heart through electrodes.
Can I take an ECG recording with a pacemaker?
We recommend not to use this monitor if you have a pacemaker or other internal medical device. Follow the advice given by your doctor, if applicable.
