A new study has recommended that doctors take blood pressure readings from both arms rather than just one. In a detailed review of medical literature, researchers in Britain found that measuring a significant difference between the readings from each arm could help doctors more readily detect the possibility of strokes and a range of frequently fatal conditions.
