Crane Valley PCN has made the decision to discontinue the BP@Home monitoring, and we will no longer be transitioning to the Luscii app.

We understand this may be disappointing news for those who enjoyed using the digital system, and we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience.

Please rest assured that your care remains your GP's top priority. Regular home blood pressure readings are still an excellent way to manage your health. 

Visit your GP surgery website or contact your practice to learn what to do next.

High blood pressure affects more than 1 in 3 adults in England; around 50% of all heart attack and strokes are associated with high BP and it is a major risk factor for chronic kidney disease, heart failure and dementia.  Persistent high blood pressure can increase your risk of some serious and potentially life-threatening health conditions, such as:

• heart disease
• heart attacks
• strokes
• heart failure
• peripheral arterial disease
• aortic aneurysms
• kidney disease
• vascular dementia

Prevention is key:  If you have high blood pressure, reducing it even a small amount can help lower your risk of these health conditions.

When taking your blood pressure readings, it is important to be relaxed, so avoid taking your blood pressure when stressed, in pain or in a hurry.
