Long-term conditions review

Long term conditions review – form A

Please note your blood pressure readings down on a piece of paper, following the guidance below. Then enter all the readings into this online form, once you have them all. Hard copy forms are available at Reception if you prefer.

How to take your blood pressure

  • We encourage patients to get their own blood pressure monitor, which can be bought from pharmacies, big supermarkets and online for around £15. There’s a blood pressure monitor and scales in our waiting room if needed.
  • Take readings for at least five days, twice a day – once in the morning and one in the evening .
  • Just take as many as you can, if you’re using the machine in the waiting room.
  • Take your blood pressure while sitting down.
  • For each blood pressure reading, take two measurements at least 1 minute apart – enter the lowest.
  • Some blood pressure monitors may display in the format ‘140/80’ and some show the numbers one above the other – the first or top number is the systolic (sys) reading and the last or bottom number is the diastolic (dia) reading.
