Keeping a Blood Pressure Chart
When you’re monitoring your health, keeping a blood pressure chart is a good idea. Your healthcare provider may ask you to do this as part of a plan to change your lifestyle or to begin a blood pressure medication.
While you get your blood pressure taken each time you go to the doctor, that’s not enough to really give you the big picture of your heart health. It’s important for you to take control of your own body and keep track of your blood pressure over time.
If you’re being asked to keep a blood pressure chart for your doctor, you’ll get instructions on how often to take your blood pressure and what time of day to do it. Some doctors may ask you to take it once a day while others want you to monitor it several times daily.
When you take a blood pressure reading, you’ll want to record the actual numbers. But you may also want to record the date, the time, and what was going on at that time. For example, were you feeling stressed or anxious? Or were you relaxed and rested?
The circumstances surrounding your blood pressure reading can be just as important as the numbers themselves. This will help you to understand what the root causes of high blood pressure may be and help you to see how to lower it.
Your doctor may give you a blood pressure chart to fill out and return. But you may also want to purchase your own or download one from online. There are even apps you can purchase for your smart phone that help you to keep track of important health numbers.
This can be a great option if you like to store information on your phone and don’t want to keep up with an extra piece of paper. You can also track your blood pressure using a spreadsheet file on your computer. This will allow you to store and manipulate the data you collect.
Keeping a blood pressure chart is essential if you suspect you have high blood pressure or heart disease. The number one risk factor for a heart attack or stroke is high blood pressure. But when you know you have it, there’s a lot you can do to treat it.
Whether you need to just make a few lifestyle changes or you need to begin taking medication, knowing your blood pressure is critical to taking charge of your health. By keeping a blood pressure chart you can stay informed and work with your doctor to make the best decisions.
It’s much better to keep yourself from developing heart disease than to try to keep it from getting worse later.
