The tensiometer, also called sphygmomanometer, is a device that measures blood pressure (or tension).
It is the pressure of the blood that circulates in our arteries.
The sphygmomanometer also indicates the heart rate (number of heartbeats in 1 minute) which is essential to analyze the proper functioning of the heart.
The measurement of blood pressure is very important to assess the health of a person.
Indeed, if the blood pressure is permanently too high, it can lead to many complications and put the person's life in danger (stroke, cardiac arrest, ...).
In the same way, a blood pressure that is too low exposes to many risks (fainting, dizziness, fainting, ...).
High blood pressure (HTA) is a chronic disease that results in a permanent and frequent increase in blood pressure.
This disease can cause serious consequences at the cardiac, renal and visual levels if it is not properly managed.
The diagnosis of hypertension is made by measuring the blood pressure with a blood pressure monitor.
If the blood pressure is higher than 14/9 cmHg on several occasions within a few months, then it may be hypertension.
It is important to take several measurements to be sure that the elevation is not due to stress or another factor that causes the blood pressure to rise. There are treatments to control high blood pressure that have been shown to be effective.
