Why Keeping a Blood Pressure Log Matters
A log transforms isolated readings into a meaningful health picture.
See patterns, not just readings
A single reading is a snapshot. A week of readings is a story. Logging reveals when your pressure peaks and what drives it.
Know if treatment is working
Whether you are making lifestyle changes or taking medication, a log shows whether your readings are actually moving.
Prepare better doctor visits
Arriving with two weeks of data turns a 10-minute appointment into a productive conversation backed by evidence.
Catch white coat hypertension
Up to 30% of people read higher at the clinic. Home log data helps your doctor distinguish true hypertension from anxiety-driven readings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I record in a blood pressure log?
Record the date, time, systolic pressure (top number), diastolic pressure (bottom number), and pulse. Adding notes about context is valuable: note if you had caffeine recently, exercised, slept poorly, felt stressed, or changed your medication. Context turns numbers into insight.
How often should I log my blood pressure?
The American Heart Association recommends logging twice daily: once in the morning before eating or taking medications, and once in the evening before dinner. Take two readings one minute apart and record both. Aim for at least two weeks of consistent readings before a doctor appointment.
How do I print the blood pressure log template?
Click the "Print Log Template" button on this page. Your browser will open the print dialog. Select "Save as PDF" as the destination to save a digital copy, or select your printer to print on paper. The template is formatted for standard A4 and US Letter paper.
Is a digital blood pressure log better than a paper one?
Digital logs offer significant advantages: they cannot be lost or misplaced, they calculate averages automatically, they display trends visually, and they can generate formatted reports for doctors. The Cardilog app is a free digital blood pressure log that also provides AI-powered insights into your readings.
What time of day gives the most accurate blood pressure reading?
Morning readings taken before eating and before taking medications capture your baseline pressure. Evening readings show how pressure responds to the day's activity and stress. Measuring at consistent times each day makes your data comparable across weeks and months.
