Daily Heart Tracker Template
Build a steady daily heart routine
This template keeps one person focused on the basics that matter: add a Daily Log to the exact date, record AM/PM readings and meds, then use the sidecar to review your week and prep for care conversations.
- Track AM/PM blood pressure on a calendar
- Prepare for doctor visits with ready‑to‑copy cards
- Stay consistent with a simple weekly review
- Export your board as PDF or image
Tune your Daily Log
Open the duplicate‑locked ‘Daily Log’ and make the fields fit how you track — keep AM/PM BP and Meds, or add an extra line if your clinician asks for something specific.
Pro tip: If you track resting HR or symptoms, add those lines now so you never forget.
Add today’s entry (Calendar)
Drag to duplicate ‘Daily Log’ and drop it onto today’s calendar cell. Keeping logs on the date they belong makes weekly and monthly patterns obvious.
Pro tip: If you missed yesterday, place that card on yesterday’s date — don’t cram two days into one.
Measure correctly
Rest 5 minutes, feet flat, arm at heart level, correct cuff size. Take two readings 1 minute apart and record both if your clinician prefers.
Pro tip: Avoid caffeine/exercise for 30 minutes before AM/PM readings.
Tag patterns and context
Use tags like Diet, Exercise, Medication, Stress, or Urgent to mark spikes and important context. It makes follow‑ups and week‑over‑week comparisons faster.
Pro tip: Create only a few tags you’ll actually use; consistency beats detail.
Review weekly
Duplicate ‘Weekly Review’ every Sunday. Note unusually high/low readings, misses, average sleep/steps, and one adjustment for next week.
Pro tip: If a change worked, add it to your ‘What worked’ note so it sticks.
Prep for your next visit
Duplicate ‘Visit Prep’ and list your top 3 goals, recent highest/lowest readings, current meds, and the questions to ask. Bring or share a PDF if helpful.
Pro tip: Keep a running ‘Questions for Doctor’ list so you’re never scrambling the night before.
