Blood pressure monitoring is the process of measuring the force of blood against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps it through your body. Blood pressure readings are taken using a device called a sphygmomanometer, which consists of an inflatable cuff that wraps around your upper arm, a pressure gauge, and a stethoscope (for manual readings). The test is used to assess the health of your cardiovascular system and to diagnose conditions such as hypertension (high blood pressure) or hypotension (low blood pressure).
Blood pressure is recorded in two numbers: systolic (the pressure when the heart beats) and diastolic (the pressure when the heart is at rest between beats).Consistently high or low readings may indicate underlying health problems.
