24 hour Blood Pressure Monitoring

Blood pressure monitoring equipment is put on in the clinic and then worn by the patient for 24 hours. The equipment is removed at the clinic after being worn for 24 hours. For the most accurate test results we require patients to have no changes to blood pressure medications in the six weeks leading up to their 24 hour blood pressure test.
Location and contact information is available on the Inform Alberta website.

 

Vascular Risk Reduction Program

The program helps people manage their risk factors that can lead to a heart attack, stroke, kidney disease and/or peripheral arterial disease. Services are provided by a nurse practitioner (NP). The NP provides assessments; orders and interprets diagnostic/laboratory tests; provides referrals; monitors client progress; adjusts treatments; and provides prescriptions as needed.
