Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps blood. When blood flows through your arteries at higher than normal pressures, you may have high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. High blood pressure is a major risk factor for heart disease, which is the leading cause of death in the United States.

Half of all Americans have high blood pressure and many don’t even know it. Adults should have their blood pressure checked by a healthcare provider. If your numbers are high, your healthcare provider may suggest self-measuring your blood pressure outside of the doctor’s office.

Follow these tips to measure your blood pressure at home. ❤

Presión arterial es la fuerza que ejerce la sangre contra las paredes de las arterias cuando el corazón la bombea. Cuando la sangre circula por las arterias a una presión superior a la normal, es posible que padezca presión arterial alta, también conocida como hipertensión. La presión arterial alta es uno de los principales factores de riesgo de las enfermedades cardiacas, que son la principal causa de muerte en Estados Unidos.

La mitad de los estadounidenses tienen la presión arterial alta y muchos ni siquiera lo saben. Los adultos deben hacerse controlar la presión arterial por un profesional de la salud. Si sus valores son elevados, el médico puede sugerirle que se automida la presión arterial fuera del consultorio.

Siga estos consejos para medirse la presión arterial en casa. ❤
