Blood pressure measurement

Lying, sitting and standing blood pressure is an auxiliary test method used to check whether blood pressure is normal. Most doctors measure the patient's sitting or supine blood pressure when they see a doctor. If only the supine blood pressure is measured, high blood pressure may also be measured, resulting in long-term misdiagnosis of hypotension. People to be checked: routine medical examination, vascular abnormalities, middle-aged and elderly people. .
