In
the past decade, technology overall has been evolving constantly especially in
the field of medical science. Furthermore, it has led to innovation of several electronic
tools which are used for diagnosing and treating various numbers of disorders which
was earlier very difficult. One such innovation is the Ambulatory Blood
Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) device which is also termed as ausculatory monitor.
This device is used to continuously monitor your blood pressure levels at equal
intervals of time (usually after every 15 to 20 minutes) while you are busy
doing your day-to-day activity moving around. It records and keeps a track of
the pressure levels for an entire 24 hours. This device uses a technique
wherein a stethoscope reads the blood pressure levels together with a sphygmomanometer.
It is an automated comprises of an inflatable arm cuff which can be adjusted to
fit right in any size of the upper arm and it attached to an aneroid manometer.
Ambulatory
BP monitors make use of cuff oscillometry method to identify diastolic,
systolic, heart rate and mean blood pressure. ABPM devices render exact and
valuable diagnostic data as compared to other blood pressure monitoring devices
which are used at home or in hospitals. This device is of most value to record
blood pressure values of different types of conditions associated with
hypertension such as the following:
·
Hypertension because of frequent monitoring
·
Episodic hypertension (sometimes referred as
panic disorder)
·
Autonomic nerve disorder (dysautonomia)
·
Masked hypertension (MH)
·
Abnormally low blood pressure because of antihypertensive
medications
·
Distinguish between true hypertension and white
collar hypertension
· Assessment whether the antihypertensive
medications is altering the early morning BP upsurge
Globally,
there is a rising demand of ABPM devices as they are the most precise than any
other blood pressure monitoring devices. This market is gaining lucrative
growth owing to the rise in the number of patients suffering from either high
or low blood pressure all over the world. Presently, there are approximately
one billion people across the world suffering from high BP and the number is
predicted to reach 1.56 billion by 2025.
