Hypertension
Blood pressure taken once, in a clinic, on a nervous morning is not blood pressure. Home readings, taken calmly and reviewed by a physician who knows you, are.
How we care for it at home
- Home cuffs supplied and calibrated, technique taught at the bedside.
- Targets individualized — the right number for an 82-year-old isn't the same as for a 55-year-old.
- Medication regimens simplified around what the patient can actually take.
- Careful attention to orthostatic drops and falls.
What we watch for
- Trends over weeks, not single readings.
- Kidney function and electrolytes on antihypertensives.
- Signs of heart failure, stroke, or vascular disease.
- Sleep apnea, which drives resistant hypertension.
