Will my doctor accept wrist monitor readings?

Most doctors prefer upper-arm readings but will accept wrist readings for home trend monitoring. Bring your wrist monitor to an appointment to validate its readings against the office cuff.

Can I use a wrist BP monitor while exercising?

No. Blood pressure monitors require you to sit still with no movement. Wrist monitors are not designed for active monitoring — take readings at rest only.
