Applying the blood pressure monitor

The blood pressure must be measured on a bare wrist. The
cuff should not be applied on top of protruding wrist bones
as it will not lie evenly around the wrist.
The monitor has a fixed connection to the cuff and the cuff
must not be removed from the monitor.
Now pull the cuff over your wrist. The blood pressure monitor
is positioned on the inside of the wrist about 1 to 1.5 cm from
the crease of the wrist.
The cuff should fit securely but not tightly. Please note
that incorrectly applying the cuff may distort the meas-
ured result. The Veroval
®
wrist blood pressure monitor
has a cuff size of 12.5 to 21 cm. For wrists with a larger
diameter, it is recommended to switch to a Veroval
®
upper arm blood pressure monitor because otherwise
precise blood pressure values cannot be measured.
This innovative Veroval
®
monitor with Comfort Air tech-
nology ensures a comfortable measurement. Inflation to
190 mmHg is required for the first measurement. For
subsequent measurements, inflation pressure is adjusted
individually based on previously measured blood pressure
values. This allows for more comfortable measurements.
Carrying out the measurement
You should take your blood pressure in a quiet place, in a relax-
ed and comfortable seated position.
Measurement can be taken on the right or left wrist. We
recommend you perform the measurement on the left wrist.
Over the long term, the wrist giving higher readings should be
used for blood pressure monitoring. However, if there is a very
clear difference between readings on either wrist, you need
to check with your doctor which wrist you should use for the
measurement.
Always take measurements on the same wrist.
