Accuracy of a blood pressure in a grocery store?!
Question: Accuracy of a blood pressure in a grocery store!?
I just got a new home blood pressure monitor called Omron HM780, supposedly accurate!. Now when I go to the store my readings are between 130/85 to 148/95 and when I get home my readings are between 115/70 to 132/85 WHAT SHOULD I TRUST!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Don't trust the ones at the store!. They are almost always inaccurate!. Most of the time when I take mine it says I'm dead!. Trust the home monitor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Never trust a blood pressure machine that you find in a public place!. They are never properly maintained and only replaced when they are defective!. The cuff is only one size!. I would trust your home readings and the bp readings from your Dr!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
