C) TIE THE CUFF (fig. 2,3 a 4)
1) Remove all jewelry, such as watches and bracelets from your left arm. Note : If your doctor
has diagnosed you with poor circulation in your left arm, use your right arm.
2) Roll or push up your sleeve to expose the skin. Make sure your sleeve is not too tight.
3) Hold your arm with your palm facing up and tie the cuff on your upper arm, then position
the tube off-center toward the inner side of arm in line with the little finger. Or position the
artery mark over the main artery (on the inside of your arm). Fig.2
Note : Locate the main artery by pressing with 2 fingers approximately 2 cm above the
bend of your elbow on the inside of your left arm. Identify where the pulse can be felt the
strongest. This is your main artery. Fig.3
4) The cuff should be snug but not too tight. You should be able to insert one finger between
the cuff and your arm.
5) Sit comfortably with your tested arm resting on a flat surface. Place your elbow on a table
so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart. Turn your palm upwards. Sit upright in
a chair, and take 5-6 deep breaths. Fig.4
6) Helpful tips for Patients, especially for Patients with Hypertension:
– Rest for 5 minutes before first measuring.
– Wait at least 3 minutes between measurements. This allows your blood circulation
to recover.
– Take the measurement in a silent room.
– The patient must relax as much as possible and do not move and talk during the
measurement procedure.
– The cuff should maintain at the same level as the right atrium of the heart.
– Please sit comfortably. Do not cross your legs and keep your feet flat on the ground.
– Keep your back against the backrest of the chair.
For a meaningful comparison, try to measure under similar conditions. For example, take
daily measurements at approximately the same time, on the same arm, or as directed by
a physician.
