Home Blood Pressure Monitors Unreliable By Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Mike Roizen, MDs Bill Murray's rumored to have said: "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me 350,000 times — you're a weatherman." That's a lack of accuracy we often joke about, but for some things, being that far off the mark is more disturbing. Special: Heart Surgeon's Secret to Healthy Blood Pressure According to a recent Canadian study from the University of Alberta, home blood pressure monitors are 100 percent accurate only about 30 percent of the time. That's not good, the researchers point out, because high blood pressure is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the world. In the small but revealing study of 85 people with high blood pressure, researchers identified what causes the problems with the readings. Occasionally, it's a person's inability to run the device properly. It also can be the one-size-fits-all design; the same cuff is used for both men and women, but in the study men's readings were more accurate. Arm shape and size can make the difference. Nonetheless, if you have high blood pressure, it's important to keep track of how it's doing. So how can you check the accuracy of your device? First, bring your at-home monitor with you to your next doctor's visit and check it against the doc's machine. Second, have your pharmacist instruct you in proper usage, and then try it out right there and compare its reading to the pharmacy's in-store blood pressure monitor. Almost all pharmacies now have stations where you can check your blood pressure.

During Excessively Hot Weather:

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors. Young children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles under any circumstances.

Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When possible reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Wear lightweight and loose fitting clothing when possible. To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an emergency! Call 9 1 1.
