Given that some 50 million Americans have high blood pressure, it's no wonder sales of devices that enable people to check their own blood pressure reached $126 million last year. Medical experts approve. Numerous groups, including the American College of Physicians and the Joint National Committee on Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure, have found that when done properly, self-monitoring can be helpful in high blood pressure diagnosis and treatment.
One reason is that diagnosing high blood pressure in the doctor's office may not always be straightforward. About 1 in 5 people who shows elevated blood pressure when readings are taken by physicians (and to a lesser extent by nurses or other medical personnel) actually has normal blood pressure that rises in the examining room due to nervousness. Self-monitoring of blood pressure at home can help identify the condition, known as white coat hypertension.
Self-monitoring is also beneficial because people using their own equipment can take far more readings than could reasonably be taken in a doctor's office. High blood pressure, or hypertension, generally cannot be diagnosed on the basis of one measurement, and several readings at home can be more telling than, say, measurements taken on just a couple of visits to the doctor. When medication or lifestyle strategies are being used to treat hypertension, self-monitoring is also valuable in determining appropriate drug dosages and the efficacy of habit changes such as losing excess weight and cutting back on salt.
Of course, self-monitoring should always be conducted in conjunction with, and not as a replacement for, the services of a physician.

The blood pressure cuffs on some public blood pressure machines may be too small or too large to get an accurate reading on some people with high blood pressure. Having a properly fitting cuff is important because poorly fitting cuffs won't give accurate blood pressure measurements.
It's best to have your blood pressure checked in a medical facility or in a community screening program with trained staff. Before diagnosing or treating high blood pressure, you'll need to have your blood pressure measured by a known, accurate instrument in your doctor's office on several separate visits.
If you need to check your blood pressure more frequently, your doctor can instruct you on the best way to monitor your blood pressure at home. Home blood pressure monitoring can be an inexpensive way to get regular blood pressure readings. Home blood pressure monitoring isn't a substitute for visits to your doctor, and home blood pressure monitors may have some limitations. Even if you get normal readings, don't stop or change your medications or alter your diet without talking to your doctor first.
