3.4 Why measure at home with
CardioDock?
MEDISANA has had many years of experience in the
field of blood pressure measurement. The high precision
of the devices has been confirmed by clinical tests,
carried out according to international standards. One
strong argument in favour of taking blood pressure at
home is the fact that the readings are taken in familiar
surroundings under relaxed conditions. The most
important reading is the so called „baseline value", the
one taken before breakfast, directly after getting up in
the morning.
With CardioDock, you can see for the first time what
effect your daily life has on your blood pressure.
VitaDock uses your readings to create individual graphs
clearly showing your blood pressure values.
As far as it is possible, you should always try to take
your blood pressure at the same time and under the
same conditions each day. This ensures comparable
results and helps in detecting the first signs of high
blood pressure. If high blood pressure remains un-
detected, it increases the risk of further cardiovascular
diseases.
THEREFORE WE RECOMMEND:
Take a blood pressure reading daily
and on a regular basis, even if you are
experiencing no apparent complaints.
