3.2.1 Before Taking Measurements
To help ensure accurate measurements, follow these
directions:
⚫
Rest for at least 5 minutes before taking
measurements.
⚫
Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking
measurements when stressed.
⚫
Remove any tight - fitting clothing from your arm.
⚫
A single measurement does not provide an accurate
indication of your true blood pressure. You need to
take and record several results over a period of time.
