Cara Tepat Mengukur Tekanan Darah Menggunakan Tensimeter

Tensimeter is a tool used to measure blood pressure. Want to know how to use a tensimeter to measure blood pressure correctly? Watch this video. Why do you need to know how to measure blood pressure correctly? Because by measuring blood pressure, we know the reflection of our heart's work.

There are three mirrors that we can get with this measurement. The first is the heart working too hard, called hypertension. The heart working normally and healthy, called normotension. And the heart working slowly, called hypotension.

There are two types of tensimeter that are commonly used. The first is the manual and the second is the digital. There are two types of manual, namely Raksa and Aneroid. Raksa is made of glass and contains heavy metal. And this has been pulled from the market for a long time because it is easy to break and contains heavy metal that is dangerous if it is absorbed into the skin. While the aneroid tensimeter uses air pressure.

which is commonly used in clinics or in nearby health centers. For digital tensimeter, it is not manually supplied but automatically with electric assistance. The advantages and disadvantages of both manual and digital tensimeters are: Manual tensimeter is cheaper and more affordable, and easier to get at pharmacies and nearby health care vendors.

But the disadvantage is that the manual tensile instrument cannot be used alone, it is needed by others to manually remove it. While digital digital tensile is more expensive, around Rp 500,000 to Rp 1 million. But the advantage is that it can be done alone for self-measurement.

But don't worry, the results from both will be the same and if there is a difference, it will not be far away. The difference is only about 0-5 mmHg. Next, we will watch a video simulation of the correct blood pressure measurement using a manual densimeter.

This simulation uses a manual tensimeter because the manual tensimeter is easiest to find in nearby pharmacies or in nearby health care sellers because the price tends to be cheaper and more affordable. In fact, because the ease of access by the community, many people are wrong in using it and interpreting it. Now we do a simulation to measure

blood pressure or called a tensimeter we use a manual tensimeter like this first we install this tube area facing up do not turn it over like this there is a sign of the artery like this installed above about two fingers above the sacrum, the middle of the sacrum like this

So the bottom limit is on the two fingers of the middle fold of the inner circumference We insert it, we install it not too tight but also not loose We put it in like this So it can't go up and down again But the patient doesn't feel too tight either Then we measure, we install this on

the hang can be attached to the hang that is in the tensimetre itself, it can be attached to the patient, it can be on the clothes as long as it doesn't bother. Then we also use a stethoscope to listen to the nodules. Later we will choose with the fourth and first nodules as we explained earlier. Like this, we attach it to

half of the inside like this half of the inside we press with our fingers like this then we tie it up we put the air balloon covered then we press we fill it with air the meter so that the needle will rise

until about 200 Then we release it slowly while one scoop is pressed We release it slowly, the slower we release this air, the lower it will be the slower, the smoother we see the first and fourth sounds

here the first thread shows 130 the bottom is 80 so the first thread is raised to 130 and the last or the fourth is raised to 80 so the tension is 130/80 to release it also slowly first we release the transimator first then we release the

and the tension measurement has been done. From the video you have watched, there are four things that need to be prepared. The first is the position of the measurement, the second is the condition of the person we will check, the third is the surrounding situation, and the fourth is the preparation of the equipment.

The position is meant to be the position of the patient's heart and the position of the patient's heart, where the position of the patient's heart and the position of the patient's heart must be in the same order.

The condition of the person we will examine must be in a calm condition, where if previously not doing activities, give a 2-5 minute dose to calm yourself down and if previously doing heavy activities, give a dose of about 30 minutes to calm yourself down. The purpose of giving this dose of time is to calm yourself down and so that the heart's work, the irama, becomes more stable.

Second condition, the person who is examined is not joking or talking because it also affects the heart. Third condition, make sure that he has not been drinking coffee or medicines before. The situation is meant to be a situation around the measuring point where it will affect the emotions and the heart of the patient. The surrounding situation must be calm,

For example, in a funny environment, the patient will laugh and this will change the heart rate. Or in a situation around there is something that makes you nervous, where the patient will jump nervous and the heart rate will increase faster. Preparing tools, if using a manual densimeter, make sure the location is correct and connected well, and the air does not leak.

If you use digital meter, make sure the battery you use is in full condition. The question is, when is the right time to measure blood pressure in one day? Ideally, blood pressure measurement is done twice a day. The first is in the morning, right before waking up before doing activities.

Second, do it at night before bed. Make sure you lie down for about 2 minutes before doing the test. And the most important thing is to do it routinely and regularly. After doing blood pressure measurement, you will get the value of blood pressure. There are two types of values, namely the above and below values.

The value above is called systolic and the value below is called diastolic. As in the video we watched earlier, the upper limit value is 130 and the lower limit is 80. Where 130 is called systolic and 80 is called diastolic.

Systolic is the pressure from the heart muscle that pump blood from the heart to the entire blood vessels. While diastolic is the pressure from the heart muscle during rest, before pumping the next one. The upper normal value limit or systolic is 90 to less than 120.

while the normal limit of the lower part or diastolic is 60 to less than 80. There are three groups of blood pressure values that you need to know. The first is the normal group, the second is the perhypertensive group, and the third is the hypertensive group.

If you are in the first group, the normal group, where the upper or upper systole is 90 to less than 120 and the lower range is 60 to less than 80, this means that your heart condition is healthy and normal.

The second group is the group of hypertension, where the upper number or systole is 120-139 and the lower number is 80-89. This condition is called an unimpeded condition of hypertension.

The third group is the hypertension group, where the upper limit or systole is more than 140 and the lower limit or diastole is more than or equal to 90. Now the question is, which group do you belong to? And what should you do next?

If you are in a normal group, it means your heart is in good condition. Continue the lifestyle you have been living, healthy eating and healthy activity. Healthy eating is a balanced diet, between rice, porridge, vegetables and fruits.

What I mean by enough physical activity is enough exercise 3-4 times a week and 30-45 minutes per time. If you are in a pre-hypertension group, this is a group that is not fully hypertensive. There are many ways that can be done before you actually enter the actual hypertension.

starting from applying a healthy diet, doing physical activity or exercise, to controlling stress. And if you are in the hypertension group, then in addition to applying a healthy diet, physical activity and exercise, as well as controlling stress, you must immediately visit a doctor for drug consumption to stabilize blood pressure.

There are two things you don't need to worry about if your tension enters the group of hypertension or hypertension. The first, if you do measurements after doing physical activity or exercise or after eating and drinking. Because after doing physical activity, after eating or drinking, heart rate can be fast and blood pressure can rise.

The second is the term White Coat Hypertension. White Coat Hypertension is a high blood pressure due to anxiety when being examined by a doctor or medical staff.

Generally, if you do a blood pressure test at home, the blood pressure is normal. So, it is best to bring a record of the results of the blood pressure measurement at home and show it to your doctor as the actual blood pressure index. And the next question is, when do we need to find access to health?

First, if in 10 days your blood pressure is average, including in the group of hypertension and hypertension. Second, if symptoms are found such as headache, dizzy, dizzy, dizzy, sneezing, look of a runaway, deafened ears, nausea, chest pain, shivering, feeling uncomfortable or difficult to breathe.

Third, if you feel symptoms that lead to stroke such as nausea, nausea, or nausea on one side of the body, either right or left. And second, if you feel a balance disorder. Symptoms of balance disorder, for example, fatigue or dizzy, and difficulty in coordinating movement between the right and left body parts.

Discipline in measuring blood pressure in a way that is consistent because there is a phenomenon of silent killer from hypertension. It is called silent killer because it is killing silently without showing symptoms or symptoms before.

Hypertension is the number one cause of death in the world, where more than 50% of people who live it do not realize that they have hypertension before doing blood pressure tests. But don't worry if you are in the pre-hypertension and hypertension group and you do blood pressure measurements regularly, hypertension can be cured and treated.

The conclusion of this video is that first, make sure you do the correct blood pressure measurement. Second, make sure you are in which group, including the normal group, pre-hypertensive or post-hypertensive. Third, know when you start to find access to health.
