Blood pressure information

Hello. I love having my blood pressure and would like to know about yours.

How old are you?

What is your normal blood pressure?

What size cuff do they use on you?

Hey and hello,

1) I am 28 years old / young and male.

2) My normal blood pressure is between Sys 90mmhg - 110mmhg, Dia 50mmhg - 65mmhg. But it can also happen that my blood pressure drops to values ​​of 45 / 15mmhg, especially at night. I had also experienced hypertensive crises where my blood pressure rose to over 360 / 295mmhg.

3) Different sizes of the cuffs are used for me. As a rule, I measure my blood pressure on the upper arm and on the ankle cuffs. A normal standard blood pressure cuff for adults (size 4 27cm - 35cm) is sufficient. If my wrist is measured, then it needs a cuff for me, for children. If you measure me on the thigh, you need a large cuff around the leg.

4) It depends on where I measure, what type of measuring device is used and how much pressure has to be applied in order to measure. It usually doesn't hurt. But with special electrical measuring devices and when measurements are taken on my wrist and thigh, it can be quite painful. If you then pump up to over 300mmhg, it sometimes becomes a real ordeal for me.

5) In everyday life I take measurements with a manual blood pressure monitor. Many electrical measuring devices fail because of my sometimes very violent fluctuations in blood pressure. Only the measuring device for telemedicine is one of the few electrical measuring devices that delivers accurate and precise results. Otherwise you have to connect me to the blood pressure module of a patient monitoring monitor.

I wish you all the best and best regards to you. I hope to have helped you a little further.

I'm 33 years old. The last time I checked my blood pressure, it was 130/80. They use a manual machine with stethoscope. They used a black manual blood pressure caff. İt didn't hurt at all.

I'm 49.

At home I'll use a variety of equipment to measure it depending on whether it's for ‘fun’ or ‘real’. The fun end tends to be using my Dinamap or maybe a Boso manual sphygmomanometer/stethoscope. I do like hearing my Korotkoff sounds, which tends to jack the readings up a bit. Quite like just listening to them even when the Dinamap is doing the measuring.

The real measurements (that I pass on to my Dr) are with an Omron X7, they average around 130/80 at the moment.

Last Dr's visit was 154/92, measured using an Omron and no, it didn't hurt.

I am currently 36 years old.

My last BP was 136/76. It's in the 110s-120s fairly regularly though.

I hate the electric ones. My doctor's office uses the adult manual cuffs.

Electric ones hurt, manual ones sometimes hurt. I can deal with both though.
