USING THE DEVICE
MEASURING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE
Suggestions before Measuring:
•
Avoid caffeine, tea, alcohol, and cigarettes at least 30
minutes before measurement.
•
Wait 30 minutes after exercising or bathing before
measurement.
•
Sit or lie down for at least 10 minutes before measuring.
•
Do not measure when feeling anxious or tense.
•
Please take a 5-10 minute break between measurements.
•
Waiting allows the engorged blood vessels to return to
normal status. This break can be longer if necessary,
depending on your physical conditions.
•
Keep the records for your physician as reference.
