Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitors

$100.00

Ambulatory blood pressure monitors (ABPMs) are portable devices that automatically measure and record a patient's blood pressure at regular intervals over a 24-hour period, even while the patient is going about their normal daily activities and sleeping. This provides a comprehensive overview of blood pressure fluctuations throughout the day and night, offering a more accurate diagnosis of hypertension, especially "white coat hypertension" or masked hypertension, compared to single in-clinic readings. ABPMs are crucial for optimizing blood pressure management and reducing cardiovascular risks.

Ambulatory blood pressure monitors (ABPM) are portable, battery-operated devices that automatically measure a patient's blood pressure at regular intervals over a 24-hour period, typically while they go about their normal daily activities, including sleep. The device consists of a cuff worn on the arm, connected to a small monitor worn on a belt or shoulder strap. Unlike single office readings, ABPM provides a comprehensive profile of blood pressure fluctuations throughout the day and night. This detailed data is crucial for diagnosing "white coat hypertension" (high readings only at the doctor's office), "masked hypertension" (normal readings at the office but high elsewhere), and for assessing the effectiveness of antihypertensive medications. ABPM is considered the gold standard for diagnosing hypertension and accurately predicting cardiovascular risk, providing a more reliable picture of a patient's true blood pressure patterns.
