Why are my blood pressure readings sometimes different? A. Your blood pressure changes constantly based on your daily activities and time of day. Because of this, some fluctuations can be expected. That’s why it is important to use averages over time to compare readings. Because each person is different, it’s important to consult with your doctor about what your numbers mean to you. Q. Why could my doctor's reading be different than my readings taken at home? A. Having your blood pressure measured by a healthcare professional in a doctor’s office can cause nervousness and may result in an elevated reading. Because these readings can vary considerably, you should take your blood pressure on a regular basis at home and share your results with your healthcare provider. OTHER iMPORTANT TiPS For accurate readings, sit quietly with feet flat on the floor and rest for five minutes before taking measurements. Do not measure within 30 minutes after eating, exercising, bathing, smoking or drinking alcohol. To review readings, press the MEMORY button to scroll through readings. To use the Advanced Averaging function and display averages, see pages 26-27 in the instruction manual. To keep your monitor in the best condition, follow the Care and Maintenance directions on pages 29-30 of the instruction manual.
