7. Usage (blood pressure)
General rules when measuring blood pressure yourself
• In order to generate as informative a profile of the progression of your blood pressure as possible and
ensure that the measured values can be compared, you should measure your blood pressure regularly
and always at the same times of day. It is recommended that you measure your blood pressure twice a
day: once in the morning after getting up and once in the evening.
• You should always carry out the measurement when you are sufficiently physically rested. You should
therefore avoid taking measurements during stressful periods.
• Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes of eating, drinking, smoking or exercising.
• Before the initial blood pressure measurement, make sure always to rest for 5 minutes.
• Furthermore, if you want to take several measurements in succession, make sure always to wait for at
least 1 minute between the individual measurements.
• Repeat the measurement if you are unsure of the measured value.
• Place the cuff on your upper arm only. Do not place the cuff on other parts of the body.
