Measuring Blood Pressure Once Isn’t Enough: Heart Surgeon Explains the ‘7-2-2

A single BP reading may mislead; the 7-2-2 rule recommends monitoring twice daily for seven days to identify hypertension accurately. , Health, Times Now Measuring Blood Pressure Once Isn’t Enough: Heart Surgeon Explains the ‘7-2-2
