If you want better insight into how your blood pressure behaves throughout the day and want to feel more in control of your treatment, this is the ideal investigation for you.
This continuous monitoring records your blood pressure every 15–30 minutes over 24 or 48 hours during your daily routine and sleep. It provides a full picture of your cardiovascular health that in-clinic readings simply can’t capture.
Ideal for diagnosing tricky cases, adjusting medication, and avoiding overtreatment, especially in older adults, this test ensures precision and safety in blood pressure management.
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring records blood pressure across the day and night to give a broader picture than one clinic reading.
It can help identify patterns, compare daytime and night-time readings and support better clinical decision-making.
Patients should wear comfortable clothing and follow the clinic instructions for wearing and returning the monitor.
This information is general and does not replace urgent or emergency medical care. For urgent symptoms, use NHS 111/999 or local emergency services.
