How to Take Accurate Measurements
For the most accurate blood pressure measurement:
Sit comfortably on a chair. Rest your arm on the table. Do not cross your
legs. Keep your feet flat on the floor and straighten your back.
Relax for about five to ten minutes before measurement.
Place the center of the cuff at the same level as your heart.
Remain still and keep quiet during measurement.
Do not measure immediately after physical exercise or a bath. Rest for
twenty or thirty minutes before taking the measurement.
Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time every day.
Measurement
During measurement, it is normal for the cuff to feel very tight. (Do not be
alarmed).
After Measurement
After measurement, press the START button to turn the device off.
Remove the cuff and record your data. After one minute of non-operation,
the device will turn off automatically.
