My take is...... Taking your blood pressure all the time raises your blood pressure.

@michelemaliano7860 My ex wife was like that. If she read about an illness, or heard about someone having an illness then she thought she had it. Taking her temperature and blood pressure 10 times a day and actually making herself sick. If you feel fine .... you're fine!

I have a wrist cuff, and took my measurements over about a three-week span at approximately the same time every evening. It was fairly consistent at about 110/70 with heart rate of 76. I was satisfied with that info, even if not totally accurate. Not bad for a 65 yo woman on no meds.👍🏼

Arm. Monitored mine twice a day (2x) for a couple weeks in December. Was 137/85, I'm 66yo. Decided it was time to make some changes. Been intermittent fasting (16-18 hours a day), no snacking between meals, no processed foods, more lettuce, but nothing radical food wise. Been taking my blood pressure the past week, now average 120/80 and have lost five pounds. Oh, and added a second 20m walk a day.

Hi guys from France - absolutely love your work - prefer vids to podcasts - I’m 68 and my kids and friends love your stuff too. I’m a veteran of two stent operations and a carotid endarterectomy with ongoing medication for hypertension - I use a cuff about every three months prior to doctor and cardiologist visits - my cuff gets calibrated occasionally with my doctors old fashioned method and seems pretty accurate. When I do it, I do it as advised, three consecutive times morning and the same before bed on 3 consecutive days thus a total of 18 data points. As an aside I find you need to sit quietly for a minimum of 5-10 mins for consistent results - keep up the good work

Thank you both. I use an arm cuff, but only recorded twice a day. Testing three times a day makes so much sense. I always thought once or twice was enough depending on what you do prior to checking your pressure. This is great learnings.

We have both the wrist and arm BP monitors. We keep track of our BP at home and our doctor wanted us to bring them in to check them. We had our BP checked with the automatic arm cuff at the office, then the old-fashioned way with a stethoscope. It was an N=3 experiment, with my wife, the nurse, and me. All four monitors were within 2 points of each other. That's 12 BP measurements all were very close to each other. Our doctor said to keep using our monitors at home. He thought for sure the home monitors would be off.

@grand73am 6 ай бұрын

Very relatable episode. Thanks! I have both the arm cuff and wrist cuff. I just measured with both, 4 times each. The wrist is higher for me by an average of about 7 sys and 2 dia. I've recorded readings over the last couple of years, and the wrist tends to be higher most of the time. I find it can vary quite a bit within the same sitting. I have to control my thoughts when I do it, since certain thoughts tend to elevate my pressure. The calmer I can make myself the better it is. I do get the white coat syndrome when at the doctor's office, where they get a significantly higher pressure. And I tell them, well at home and I'm calm, it's much better 🙂.

@heatherdepasquale9803 6 ай бұрын

I use the wrist cuff…it’s easy to use…so I’m more apt to use it when I need to. I’m not always able to secure the arm band. I take several measurements so I know where my BP is at. An exact number isn’t as important as knowing you’re within the normal BP parameters. Thanks Docs.

@darlenemartinez384 6 ай бұрын

There are several reasons for high bp readings in a doctors office. 1. They march you back and make you get on a scale. 2. Then they march to a room where they sit you down and strap you up. All the while trying to be funny and making little jokes with the effort to get you to laugh. 3. They push the button and the cuff inflates to an extremely high level to point where my eyes cross. 4. And then they say…..huh, it’s a little high. YA THINK? Like you said, the size of the cuff makes a big difference. If you have a big arm and they use a normal cuff it will give you a higher reading. The old school method of bp taking was only as accurate as the hearing of the person taking it. Since you basically had to listen for the sound of the heartbeat. Poor hearing and you were screwed. I’m guessing that there are way too many people on meds because of false readings due to practitioners carelessness. Not a good thing.

I own both types and carry the wrist one in my bag for trips. It’s as simple as like putting on or off a watch, no need to take off long sleeves. My family doctor didn’t like it but ‘calibration’ in his office proofed it’s accuracy, as long as used properly. The doctor preferred arm one has been collecting dust somewhere in the basement.

I take my b/p sheet everytime I go to any MD office. My Cardiologist is the one that called this out, reason my pcp wanted to put me on high blood pressure medication due to the high b/p in her office. I went immediately to a Cardiologist to get this straight out. B/P can be miss leading. Scary! Great program!

@julianp.1713 6 ай бұрын

Interesting topic today, as I've been doing a study of my own for three years as of the first of January. Understand that I'm doing this out of curiosity not based on a heart issue. Past blood pressure issue for some time though. How I do it daily, I take the readings four times a day. The first thing when I wake up, two hours after the first reading, mid afternoon and before I go to bed. I have three of the arm type cuffs. Once a month I test them against each other. When taking the readings, I take eight readings. I toss the first two as they are higher than the rest. I then average the next six. These six are usual with in a couple points of each other. My thoughts my blood pressure is what it is, so should be repeatable. If I have an out of character number I drop the high and a low and average the remaining four. I have these records for three years as I said and can produce a weekly, monthly and yearly average. I also document any daily activity which may affect the results. The first reading is always the highest of the day. The second two hours after is always the lowest. Mid afternoon is up a little over the two hour reading and the bedtime reading is usually around the two hour reading. Usually at my Doctors office the readings are higher than relaxed at home. I've taken my equipment to my Doctors office and while there mine are near his arm cuff. One thing I question is the nurse always used the first reading and that is the reading my Doctor medicates by when needed. When that isn't an accurate reflection of my real daily blood pressure. I suspect that is the case in the vast majority of patients. What is your opinion?

I use the arm cuff at home and while sitting quiet and relaxed take three measurements to get average reading. At the Dr office the nurse pulls out a wrist cuff and starts up measurement while talking to me and asking questions so no way I can be in calm relaxed mode during measurement. Later, the Dr sees her chart entries and comments the BP is a little high. Hmmm. What's wrong with this picture ?

Hello Doctors! I use an arm cuff at home, which is consistant with the devices my doctors use. I believe that at-home readings are the most accurate, as I am more relaxed and not tense as I am in a medical office. At home, I can sit quietly for 5 minutes before the readings begin. I am also able to breathe calmly. I have never used a wrist cuff, nor have I ever used handcuffs 😂

Is my arm cuff going to be accurate if the cuff is too wide for my arm? I have to get a large cuff because I'm fat but I'm also small.

I really get a lot out of the videos you guys make. I especially like that fact that you are Canadian so I dont have to pay for the helpful information I get from you. I have been tracking my BP since I was in my 30s (77 yo now) and have been on medication all those years. Of course I started with the ancient manometer technology years ago but switched to automated cuffs as soon as the price became reasonable. I had been using an arm cuff for a few years when I noticed that the reading my dentist got with a wrist cuff was essentially the same was what I was getting on my arm cuff device. So I bought a wrist cuff device and compared the results with my arm cuff instrument. I found no difference and have been using an wrist cuff ever since. I do think you have to be a little more careful with wrist cuff but when you do screw up you get a very high result. My wrist cuff has a led that tels me if I have the cuff at the level of my heart and that seemes to be impoortant. The bigger issue is where on your wrist you place the cuff. If you put it too close to your hand it ends up trying to compress the bones in your wrist rather that the soft tissue of your forearm. This almost always gives a higher reading. I have taken my wrist cuff to the doctor's office and compared it to the result they get and they always coorelate within a couple of mm of mercury. I see that much variation with repetitive measurements on my arm cuff at home. Thanks again for the helpful videos
