Unlike a one-time BP reading in the clinic, Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) gives a more accurate picture of your blood pressure throughout a typical day and night. It helps uncover conditions like white-coat hypertension or masked hypertension that might otherwise go unnoticed.
A small monitor is worn around your arm, and it automatically takes BP readings at intervals while you go about your normal routine. The device is quiet, comfortable, and designed to avoid disrupting your daily life.
At Epic Heart Clinic Asaba, we analyze the full 24-hour data to understand your blood pressure patterns — including during work, rest, and sleep. This helps us tailor your treatment plan far more accurately than a single in-clinic measurement.
ABPM is especially valuable for patients already on BP medication, those with high readings at home or in the office, or anyone at risk of developing hypertension. It’s a key tool in long-term heart protection.
