MEDISANA has had many years of experience in the field of blood pressure mea-
surement. The high precision of MEDISANA devices has been confirmed by exten-
sive clinical tests, carried out according to strict international standards. One strong
argument in favour of taking blood pressure at home is the fact that the readings are
taken in familiar surroundings under relaxed conditions. The most important reading
is the socalled „baseline value“, the one taken before breakfast, directly after getting
up in the morning. As far as it is possible, you should always try to take your blood
pressure at the same time and under the same conditions each day.
