2.3. What can be done, if regular increased/low values are obtained?

a) Please consult your doctor.

b) Increased blood-pressure values (various forms of hypertension) are associated long- and

medium term with considerable risks to health. This concerns the arterial blood vessels of

your body, which are endangered due to constriction caused by deposits in the vessel walls

(Arteriosclerosis). A deficient supply of blood to important organs (heart, brain, muscles) can

be the result. Furthermore, with long-term continuously increased blood-pressure values, the

heart will become structurally damaged.

c) There are many different causes of the appearance of high blood pressure. We differentiate

between the common primary (essential) hypertension, and secondary hypertension. The

latter group can be ascribed to specific organic malfunctions. Please consult your doctor for

information about the possible origins of your own increased blood pressure values.
