As part of the practice hypertension (raised blood pressure) management protocol if you have variable BP readings, borderline BP readings, or suspected “white coat hypertension” we may monitor your blood pressure for 24 hours. 

This involves fitting an ambulatory BP machine to you, which will take readings of your blood pressure over a 24 hour period.  Then, on returning to the practice to have the machine removed, we will interpret the results to decide the best course of medical action, if required.
