What brand of sphygmomanometer should be used correctly for home use?

Hypertension is the "invisible killer" of our body. At present, there are more than 200 million people suffering from hypertension in China. According to relevant surveys, patients are younger. This is a terrible number, but we are not helpless about it. Keep a sphygmomanometer at home to know your blood pressure and physical condition at any time, so that hypertension can be effectively controlled and prevented. Let's learn about the brand of sphygmomanometer and its related knowledge with Bian Xiao.

Classification and characteristics of sphygmomanometer;

1, mercury sphygmomanometer. There are two types: desktop and vertical. The vertical sphygmomanometer can adjust its height at will. Because the results are reliable, it is most commonly used, but it is a bit cumbersome and inconvenient to carry. What is the carrying process? Mercury is easy to leak out, which affects the accuracy, so before each measurement, it is necessary to check whether the convex surface of mercury in the calibration tube is just at the zero position of the calibration. After the pressure measurement is completed, tilt the sphygmomanometer 45 degrees to the right and turn off the switch to avoid mercury leakage.

2. Electronic sphygmomanometer. Electronic sphygmomanometer uses electronic pressure and pulsation sensors (instead of stethoscope) to identify pressure and pulsation signals and express them in digital form. The upper part of its screen is systolic blood pressure, and the lower part is diastolic blood pressure and pulse number. Its advantages are simple operation, intuitive reading, automatic measurement by pressing a button, and suitable for home use. However, electronic sphygmomanometer also has the disadvantage of high error rate, so it needs to be calibrated on the basis of standard mercury sphygmomanometer.

3. Barometer (spring) sphygmomanometer. Pneumatic pump is used for pressure measurement, which is small in size, easy to carry and free from mercury leakage. However, with the increase of application times, the accuracy of the results will be affected by the change of spring characteristics, so it is necessary to calibrate the standard mercury sphygmomanometer regularly.

What brand of mercury sphygmomanometer is good?

At present, there are many brands of mercury sphygmomanometers on the market, which are generally used by professional doctors or hospitals. Better brands are: Shanghai Yuyue brand mercury sphygmomanometer, Yutu brand mercury sphygmomanometer and so on. Old brands are of good quality, accurate and trustworthy.

At the same time, the author also reminds everyone that the purchase of mercury sphygmomanometer should choose regular manufacturers instead of blindly choosing expensive ones, because expensive does not mean good.

The clinical effect of mercury sphygmomanometer is very good, and the price of mercury sphygmomanometer is affordable, which reduces the economic burden for patients and friends, so patients who need to buy it can go to major regular pharmacies or hospitals to buy it.

Skills of choosing sphygmomanometer;

Tip 1: Choose mercury sphygmomanometer or electronic sphygmomanometer?

① Professional doctors can of course choose mercury sphygmomanometer, because mercury sphygmomanometer has high accuracy and stability and high technical requirements for users. If the technology is not in place and the operation is improper, it is easy to make errors in the measured blood pressure.

② Ordinary people choose electronic sphygmomanometer. The electronic sphygmomanometer is simple to use and convenient to measure.

Tip 2: Does the electronic sphygmomanometer choose arm or wrist?

When choosing a sphygmomanometer, we should consider the user's situation.

① For ordinary people, both arms and wrists can be used, and wrist measurement is convenient.

② Most middle-aged and elderly people (patients with diabetes, hyperlipidemia and hypertension). ) use your arm posture. For those patients with high blood viscosity and poor microcirculation, compared with the results measured by mercury sphygmomanometer, the error of blood pressure measured by wrist and finger will be great. The national hypertension guide unanimously recommends the upper arm electronic sphygmomanometer certified by international standards.

Tip 3: Choose automatic pressurization or semi-automatic pressurization?

① Automatic machine can automatically pressurize by pressing the button. Fully automatic means automatically controlling air intake.

② Semi-automatic means manual pressurization (pressurizing with a rubber ball by hand), which is rather troublesome, mainly because the air intake is not well controlled and the pulse rate tested is inaccurate when there is little air.

Tip 4: Do you need to buy a memory function?

When buying a sphygmomanometer, ask if there is a memory function. The memory function of sphygmomanometer refers to saving the blood pressure records (high pressure, low pressure, pulse and other data) of the tested person in the machine, which can make the tested person know his blood pressure value like the palm of his hand for a long time, and is a very good function. Memory functions are generally divided into: single group memory and multiple groups memory functions; With and without date and time function.

How to use sphygmomanometer correctly;

1. Keep quiet for 5- 10 minutes before measuring blood pressure. Don't talk or move your arms or body while measuring.

2. The correct measurement posture should be sitting posture, the cuff and the heart should be at the same level, the upper arm naturally droops, the elbow and forearm naturally rest on the table, and the palm is up (see the manual for wrist measurement requirements);

3, the same person continuous measurement, should loosen the cuff, make the arm rest for 3 minutes;

4, fixed time every day, usually it is more appropriate to measure blood pressure before or after breakfast. Because people are not active at this time, the measured blood pressure can reflect the physiological condition more truly and reliably. Same, and then take an average.

5. The sphygmomanometer should measure the average value for many times, and use the electronic sphygmomanometer to measure the blood pressure at least three times.

Experts believe that hypertension is a lifestyle disease, which is caused by bad habits in people's daily life. Therefore, the most important thing is to develop good living habits, measure blood pressure regularly, and quit smoking and limit alcohol.
