When assessing blood pressure readings, we also take heart rate into consideration. Heart rate or pulse rate is the speed of the heartbeat measured by the number of contractions of the heart per minute bpm.

When pulse rate increases, blood pressure will increase too. Blood pressure readings can be affected by body position, part of the day, emotional state, diastole systole blood pressure activity, size of the upper arm and the blood pressure cuff that we use. Hypertension usually has no signs or symptoms but in the long-term it could lead to serious damage of the organs hence making root cause analysis and earliest possible therapy inevitable.

Causes of hypertension can be kidney diseases, hormonal disorders, arteriosclerosis but it can also be a side effect of certain medications. Depending on the causes, various treatments may be necessary, which will be determined by our specialist. Further services.
