If you have hypertension, managing your condition is crucial to preventing serious health complications. Home blood pressure monitoring is a powerful tool in maintaining your health, and Hypertension Canada recommends it as an essential part of hypertension management.
Home blood pressure monitoring also helps patients distinguish between true hypertension and white coat hypertension, which occurs when a patient’s blood pressure is raised because they are anxious or stressed in their healthcare provider’s office.
