Blood pressure monitors

Check your blood pressure regularly, easily and quickly with the blood pressure monitor

High blood pressure has become a widespread disease, as the German Hypertension League confirms. According to studies, around one in three Germans suffers from high blood pressure. The consequences of this disease should not be underestimated because they can affect the entire organism. Strokes or heart attacks are just two of the many possible complications. For this reason, it is particularly important to keep an eye on your blood pressure in order to detect and treat high blood pressure early. Because there are no signs that warn of high blood pressure early on. On the contrary, many people feel well for years despite high blood pressure. High blood pressure is often discovered accidentally by a doctor. The only sure way to detect high blood pressure early is to measure and document your blood pressure regularly. Tests show that wrist blood pressure monitors measure just as well as upper arm blood pressure monitors. However, as we age, blood vessels can narrow due to deposits or harden due to arteriosclerosis. This particularly affects the wrist arteries, which are further away from the heart, making precise measurement difficult. Older people and smokers should therefore take a measurement on their upper arm.
