To Ensure Accurate Measurement
Pay attention to the following points to ensure accurate measurement.
• Make sure that there are no ambient vibrations or noise.
• Check whether the bed is large enough and does not cause tension by not properly accommodating the limbs.
• Check that limbs are located on the limb cushions correctly so that the patient does not become tense from the effort
of keeping them in position.
• Check that the cuffs are not too loose.
Note: Points for Checking Waveforms
PCG waveform: Check that there is a primary radical wave in the
second heart sound.
Brachial pulse wave: Check that the pulse wave rises smoothly and
that there is a notch on the downward slope.
Ankle pulse wave, knee pulse wave: Check that the pulse wave
rises smoothly.
