ELECTRONIC BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR
49 AED
59 AED
Product Description
digital upper-arm blood pressure monitor showing a reading of 119/81 mmHg and a pulse rate of 70 beats per minute (BPM).
How to Read the Numbers
Digital monitors track three critical heart health metrics:
1. SYS (Systolic Pressure - 119): The top number. It shows the force your blood exerts against the artery walls when the heart beats.
2. DIA (Diastolic Pressure - 81): The middle number. It represents the remaining pressure in the arteries while the heart rests between beats.
3. PUL/MIN (Pulse Rate - 70): The bottom number. It indicates how many times your heart beats per minute.
Understanding the Measurement
According to American Heart Association (AHA) and general medical guidelines, adult measurements fall into several categories:
• Normal Range: Lower than 120/80 mmHg.
• Elevated Range: Systolic pressure between 120–129 mmHg and diastolic pressure under 80 mmHg.
• Stage 1 Hypertension: Systolic pressure between 130–139 mmHg OR a diastolic pressure between 80–89 mmHg.
The reading shown in the image (119/81) has a normal systolic level but a slightly high diastolic level (81). Because a single elevated reading places the measurement into the higher category, this specific configuration matches the criteria for Stage 1 Hypertension based on the diastolic value. The pulse rate of 70 BPM is comfortably within the healthy resting heart rate window for adults (60–100 BPM).Please note that a single automated reading may change due to temporary external variables like stress, recent physical exertion, or caffeine intake. Make sure to double-check the physical label and instruction booklet of your monitor to verify its exact indicator zones, error codes, and operations.
