Your blood pressure doesn’t stay the same all day.
In a healthy pattern, it’s higher when you’re awake and gently drops 10 to 20 percent at night.
But sometimes this natural rhythm changes — and that can raise health risks.
Non-dippers: when your blood pressure doesn’t fall enough at night, your heart and brain stay under pressure.
Reverse dippers — or risers: when blood pressure is actually higher at night, the risk of stroke and heart failure goes up sharply.
Extreme dippers: if it drops too much, the brain and heart may not get enough blood, leading to silent strokes.
And watch out for a morning surge — a sudden spike after waking — which can trigger heart attacks and strokes in early morning hours.
Tracking your day and night pattern helps you and your doctor make better decisions about treatment and lifestyle.
