24 Hour BP Monitoring with Dr. Bharat Agarwal
Dr. Bharat Agarwal offers 24-Hour Blood Pressure Monitoring to help diagnose hypertension (high blood pressure) more accurately and guide the best course of action for treatment. Do you experience symptoms like headaches, dizziness, or fatigue, but your blood pressure readings seem normal in the doctor’s office? It could be that your blood pressure fluctuates throughout the day, and that’s where 24-Hour Blood Pressure Monitoring can provide critical insights into your heart health.
What is 24-Hour BP Monitoring?
24-Hour BP Monitoring is a simple, non-invasive test that tracks your blood pressure continuously over 24 hours while you go about your daily activities. Using a small, portable device, the monitor automatically takes your blood pressure at regular intervals throughout the day and night.
Why is 24-hour BP monitoring important?
Blood pressure can fluctuate throughout the day due to factors such as stress, activity levels, diet, and sleep. A single reading in a clinical setting may not give a complete picture of your heart health.
24-Hour BP Monitoring provides several advantages:
- Accurate Hypertension Diagnosis: Tracks blood pressure over 24 hours to identify consistent high readings or spikes during certain activities.
- Detect Masked Hypertension: Identifies high blood pressure that may be missed in a clinic setting but occurs at home or during sleep.
- Assess Nighttime Hypertension: Helps detect elevated blood pressure at night, a key risk factor for heart disease and stroke.
- Monitor Treatment Effectiveness: Evaluates how well your blood pressure medications are working throughout the day and night.
When should you consider 24-hour BP monitoring?
24-Hour BP Monitoring is recommended if you have any of the following concerns or symptoms:
- Suspected Hypertension: You have consistently high readings in the doctor’s office, but normal readings at home, or vice versa.
- White Coat Syndrome: Your blood pressure tends to be elevated only when measured in a clinical setting.
- Symptoms of Hypertension: Headaches, dizziness, blurred vision, or chest pain that may be linked to high blood pressure.
- Assessing Treatment Efficacy: You are already taking blood pressure medications, and your doctor wants to check whether your treatment is working effectively throughout the day and night.
- Nocturnal Hypertension: You wake up feeling tired or with a headache, which could indicate elevated blood pressure during the night.
- Risk of Cardiovascular Disease: If you have a family history of heart disease, stroke, or kidney problems, continuous monitoring provides valuable insights into your blood pressure patterns.
