Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is a much better way of measuring blood pressure in somebody who has one of the following factors:
*White coat hypertension
*Unusual variability in the measurement of blood pressure at the clinic
*Uncontrolled hypertension – this is high blood pressure that has not been reduced to a target blood pressure level after intensive drug treatment has been given
*Very low blood pressure, particularly after suddenly standing up when someone may feel dizzy or light headed (postural hypo-tension): in more severe cases this can cause fainting or a fall.
