Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring
24-hour blood pressure monitoring for clarity and confidence.
Pearlfect Care Pharmacy provides professional Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) to help you understand your blood pressure patterns throughout the day and night.
Our pharmacy-led service offers accurate, continuous readings that give a clearer picture than single-point measurements. It is ideal for screening, medication review, and preventive health checks.
This service provides objective blood pressure data, not a formal diagnosis. All results should be reviewed by your GP or cardiologist for full clinical interpretation.
What ABPM Measures
ABPM records your blood pressure at regular intervals over 24 hours, capturing:
- Daytime and night-time readings
- Average systolic and diastolic values
- Blood pressure variability and patterns
- Morning surge and nocturnal changes
These insights help identify conditions such as hypertension, white-coat hypertension, or masked hypertension, but interpretation must always be made by a qualified clinician.
Who This Service Is For
Our ABPM screening is suitable for:
- Patients with high or fluctuating blood pressure
- Individuals with white-coat hypertension
- Those monitoring medication effectiveness
- Fitness-to-train or occupational health checks
- Preventive cardiac wellness assessments
If you experience chest pain, severe headache, or dizziness, please seek urgent medical attention.

Common questions
Can I sleep with it on?
Yes, and we ask you to. Night-time readings are an important part of the assessment.
Can I shower?
No. The monitor must stay dry, so plan to shower before fitting and after removal.
Does it hurt?
The cuff tightens firmly for a few seconds at each reading. Most people get used to it quickly.
Will my GP accept the results?
The report is a recognised 24-hour recording and is designed to be shared with your GP.
