Certification Course to
Improve BP Measurement

PAHO, WHL, the Lancet Commission on Hypertension Group, Hypertension Canada and Resolve to Save Lives have developed a free brief training and certification course in blood pressure measurement. Video only is available below and on Youtube at this link (English) and this link (French).

The full certification course  is available at  this link. The course includes a knowledge and aptitude test and provides a certificate valid for 6 months for those who pass the test. Answers to the test questions are available for people taking the course to review and there is also a brief course evaluation that can be filled in. The hope is the course will facilitate improvements in the accuracy and reproducibility of blood pressure assessments.
