“White coat syndrome is a term used for what happens when patients come in to see the doctor,” he said. “They are stressed out because they hate going to the doctor and their blood pressure is higher. But if you take it at home, before your coffee and e-mail, you get a much more accurate reading.”
“白衣综合症是用来形容病人看到医生的后反应，”他说。“他们非常紧张，因为他们讨厌看病因而他们的血压升高。但是如果在家,在喝咖啡和发邮件前测量血压，你就会得到一个更准确的结果。”

Patients can also share their results with a physician, either via e-mail or by showing them the phone or iPad with the data on it during their next doctor visit.
病人会把结果通过邮件或在下次会诊时把手机或iPad里的数据给医师看，跟他们分享这些结果。

“这是一种自我监控和收集自身健康信息的全新生态途径。”Brandeis教授说。
