24 Hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure

Evaluates the blood pressure over 24 hours for the assessment of efficacy of anti-hypertensive management, or to establish a diagnosis of hypertension in a patient in whom office readings are not diagnostic.

The ambulatory 24 Hour BP is performed using the multimodal operational "Novacor Diasys Interga 11" which measures and records blood pressure in Oscillometric and Auscultatory modes. It measures systole, diastole, mean blood pressure and heart rate for up to 24hours.

The Diasys Interga II unit weighs approximately 130g and is attached to the patient’s cuff with a tubing system.
