Why do I get a different blood pressure at home compared to
the hospital?
Blood pressure is different even throughout the day due to weather, emotions,
exercise etc.
Also, there is the "white coat" effect, which means blood pressure usually increases
in clinical settings due to anxiety or nerves.
What you need to pay attention to when you measure your blood pressure at home:
- If the cuff is tied properly.
- If the cuff is too tight or too loose.
- If the cuff is tied on the upper arm.
- If you feel anxious.
Advice: Take 2-3 deep breaths before beginning a measurement as this will help get
a more accurate result. If you are particular anxious or upset, relax yourself for 4-5
minutes until you calm down.

Is the result the same if measuring on the right arm?

It is fine to use the cuff on either arm, but
some people will experience a difference in
measurement results.
For this reason, we recommend using the same
arm every time.
