Blood Pressure Table
The Blood Pressure Table is a tool used to track and monitor a person's blood pressure readings over time. It helps healthcare providers and individuals to identify any patterns or changes in blood pressure levels, which can be an indication of health conditions such as hypertension or hypotension.
The blood pressure table is typically not filed by a specific entity. It is usually maintained by the healthcare provider or clinic where the blood pressure readings are taken.
