Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM)

An ambulatory blood pressure monitor is a portable device that records your blood pressure for 24 hours at 30 minute intervals during the day and every hour during the night. It takes 10 minutes to fit the device the patient then removes the device and returns it the next day. The information captured on the device is downloaded onto a computer and analysed by a cardiac physiologist and reported by a medical doctor. Ambulatory blood pressure monitor monitoring appointments are available at both Te Whatu Ora, Taranaki New Plymouth and Hāwera hospital sites.
