Anyone seen a position like this before? Thought I'd given myself a chance with Ng8. Sadly still came up short 🤷♂️#chesspunks
#C24Live Great coverage from you guys, thanks for the expert insights. Great stamina too - 6 hours and counting. Keep up the brilliant work!
Home BPs are fine but you must ensure the patient is using the standardised technique at home. Very often it isn't a 'resting' BP that is being taken so careful explanations v important here #NephJC
In my hypertension clinic I insist on having a separate area (room) for 2x left and 2x right arm BPs to be taken following 5 minutes resting. Explaining the rationale to clinic staff helps a lot #NephJC
