BloodPressureDB - How to use

Sign Up

Before you can use BloodPressureDB, you need to register. You will need to provide your email address. To ensure that it is indeed your address, we will send an email with a confirmation link. Click on this link to activate your account. Only then can you log in to the app or the website and use it. This somewhat cumbersome step is unfortunately necessary because the PDF evaluations are also sent to the registered email address. We need to be sure that these emails are indeed desired and that no one is entering someone else's address for fun.

By the way: Each registration applies to both the app and the website. You can also alternate between both or use the app on multiple devices. This is especially convenient if your phone should ever break; you still have access to all your data.

Note: It is also possible to use the app as a "Guest without registration". No registration is required, and the use will be anonymous. However, the PDF evaluation cannot be sent via email because no address is stored. Additionally, you will not be able to access your data from different devices.

Measure

Measure with your existing upper arm or wrist blood pressure monitor. No special device is required. If you do not have a monitor yet, you can find one quite affordably on the market. The app also supports monitors that connect directly via Bluetooth.

Record

To record a measurement, simply enter the values. The date and time are already pre-filled with current values but can be changed to add old values. You can use the on-screen keyboard or a "scroll wheel" for input. When entering blood pressure and pulse with the scroll wheel, the previous average value is used as a default. This often means that only a few changes are necessary. The pulse can also be left blank.

If you use a Bluetooth monitor, the data will be recorded automatically. This step can therefore be skipped.

If desired, a comment can be added, and a measurement can be ignored for evaluation. This is useful, for example, for measurements taken immediately after strenuous activities.

Evaluate

When you call up the data, you will see the last days for which data has been recorded. However, the time frame can be changed almost arbitrarily. With direct switches, you can display the last 7, 30, or 90 days with a click.

Tips

Average over time

For a long period with many values, the option Statistical Average over Time is recommended. You will see your average and its change over time.

Events

Doctor visits or medication changes can be entered as an Event. To do this, save an extra entry under New Entry and enter the Date and Time of the respective event in the Comment Field. The other fields can remain empty.

Medications

You can record your medication intake. If you enter your supply, BloodPressureDB will automatically calculate how long this supply will last.

PDF Evaluation

To show the data to your doctor, you can generate a PDF Evaluation.
It contains clear statistics and charts. The document can be easily sent via email or printed.
