Patient's question:

I currently have high blood pressure and need to go to the hospital for some health checks. What are the blood draw precautions for the four high blood pressure tests?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to the situation you described, a light diet should be maintained before undergoing the four-item hypertension test, and it is strictly forbidden to eat greasy, spicy, or other highly stimulating foods, including carbonated drinks. At least eight hours of fasting is required before the test. After blood collection, you can defecate. Avoid mental tension, pay attention to rest, ensure sufficient deep sleep, and engage in appropriate exercise to enhance your body's resistance.
