ABSTRACT
With household digital compact wrist blood pressure monitors, blood pressure was measured in hemiplegic patients who were receiving kinesitherapy.<BR>During the training program routinely worked out by physical therapists, most patients had shown elevated levels of both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. There were some patients whose blood pressure went up so high as to call doctors' attention.<BR>As changes in blood pressure are affected by various factors, we cannot say at once that doing exercise alone adds to blood pressure. Nonetheless, by using a household blood pressure monitor, it would be easy to know the extent to which blood pressure rises in accordance with the amount of exercise, so that it would be possible to make patients and their family aware of the importance of blood pressure readings. We thought it possible to obtain an index of the amount of exercise at home.
