The first vertical 'blip' is systole; to measure, follow the dotted line and read the pressure on the y axis. Write the answer below. Repeat that procedure for the last vertical 'blip', which would correspond with diastole. 210.00 190.00 E 170 170.00 150.00 В 130.00 130 110.00 90 90 00 T0.00 50 30 50 30.00 10 00 -10.00 31.00 1.00 A .00 A.

- Patient Scenario Harry Miller, 66 years old, went to his primary health care provider for his annual health assessment. He had gained 15 pounds in the past year. When the office nurse took his blood pressure, it was 166/92 mm Hg. The nurse took Mr. Miller's blood pressure again and then repeated it later after his health assessment was completed. Although the reading varied by a few points, it remained consistently high. Mr. Miller was obviously surprised at having hyperten- sion, because he said, "It has never been this high before. There must be something wrong with your machine." His health care provider tried to discuss the need for changes in his lifestyle as well as the need to take the medication prescribed for his blood pressure, but Mr. Miller said he had no questions and rushed out of the examining room. to control his high blood pressure to prevent serious risks, such as heart attack and stroke.
