Manual Blood Pressure Cuff Which Is More Accurate- Manual Or Automatic Blood Pressure Cuff?

Which is more accurate- manual or automatic blood pressure cuff? - manual blood pressure cuff

First, I am not a trained professional, but I bought a manual blood pressure cuff, because I believe that my machine give me false information. I hear my heart rate around 150 and is over 90 and I know it's in the manual cuff is high 20 Rebate on systolic and diastolic blood running 130/70-80

In my situation, these figures are important because I have 30 weeks of pregnancy and preeclampsia, are based on reading my desk, MM. and protein in urine leakage.

I have a headache, that I think about my blood pressure related, but if I go through vending machines, there is no reason for the cause of this problem should be 130/70.

Should I trust the machine or the untrained ear (which seems very easy to read in a manual blood pressure, but perhaps I did something wrong)

Thanks in advance

My husband has heart disease and compare the automatic wrist cuff to the office of nurse practitioners' manual more than once. There was a difference in the readings, but not much of one. Remove all automatic with you on your next visit. I had terrible headaches when I was pregnant with my daughter. It may be related to blood pressure. As a child, has taken a toll on your body honey. Hair and nails are not the same. But it's worth it. Call your doc if you are interested at all. So we get a lot of money.

Firstly, congratulations on a pregnancy. As ret. NREMT-P, I always felt that the manual is always better. That is, I understand that you enjoy worrying, however, the local fire department and is one of the firefighters or paramedics, take your blood pressure, must do so without any problems. The most important thing is to try to relax and see what you eat, reducing salt, caffeine, fat and starch, not just the bottom. If you do not feel comfortable with what your doctor said or done talking to each other. But your question is 130/70, what we used to call a normal high, low, but still within easy reach. And as for the machine, take it to the firehouse with you, or they can use themselves, and compare readings. Hope this helps, tell me what happened, Peace out.
