BP Measurement
Sir,
Yesterday i measured BP at my friend's place and in front of many people through Automated BP monitor.
My first reading was 156/74 n heart rate 71
My second reading was 126/88 n heart rate 73
Sir is that normal??
Actually i have noticed that when i measure BP in front of anybody i feel the performance or result pressure. Is it really so??
Sir as i have noticed that the first reading is always high. Is it really the case with everyone?? Please advise
