Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM)

If you are referred to the West Midlands Hypertension Centre, you may well be asked to have your blood pressure monitored over a 24hour period.

This would involve having your blood pressure taken in the day as well as night by having a particular blood pressure monitor fitted.

The tabs on the left hand side give you more information about ABPM along with why this would be necessary.

Have a look at the 24 Hour Blood Pressure Monitoring leaflet on the right hand side of this page too.
