3) Wrap and tighten the cuff around the arm.
4) Leave a little free space between the arm of the patient
and the cuff. It must be possible to fit 2 fingers between
the arm and the cuff. Clothing must not restrict the arm.
Remove all clothing covering or constricting the arm to
be measured.
5) It may result in incorrect blood pressure readings if the
cuff does not fit properly. Use a different size cuff if the
range index at the end of the cuff does not fall into the
range specified by the range stripes.
6) Apply the same steps to the other arm if a measurement
of the other arm is required.
*
When the cuff is wrapped around
the arm, the edge of the cuff should
be in the range which is marked
“OK”.
