Central Blood Bank donors can monitor their wellness profile through My Personal Donation History, a secure online record of personal donation information. The wellness information includes blood pressure, temperature, pulse, and hemoglobin.
Brighten Life members can also access this information. However, members who achieve
Bright status or higher have the added benefit of tracking their blood pressure and cholesterol test results.
It is important to frequently monitor blood pressure. High blood pressure can be dangerous because it makes the heart work harder to pump blood to the body. It can lead to heart attacks or heart failure, stroke, and kidney failure. More detailed blood pressure information can be found by accessing the link below.
Some cholesterol is needed in order for our bodies to function properly. Health problems such as heart disease may develop if a body has too much cholesterol. Monitoring cholesterol is an important aspect of good health. More detailed cholesterol information can be found by accessing the link below.
