General rules when measuring blood pressure yourself
• In order to generate as informative a profile of the progression of your blood pressure as possible and ensure
that the measured values can be compared, you should measure your blood pressure regularly and always
at the same times of day. It is recommended that you measure your blood pressure twice a day: once in the
morning after getting up and once in the evening.
• Y
-
fore avoid taking measurements during stressful periods.
• Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes of eating, drinking, smoking or exercising.

• Furthermore, if you want to take several measurements in succession, make sure always to wait for at least
1 minute between the individual measurements.
• R epeat the measurement if you are unsure of the measured value.
• Fundamentally, blood pressure can be measured on both arms. Certain deviations between the measured
blood pressure on the right arm and left arm are due to physiological causes and completely normal. You
should always perform the measurement on the arm with the highest blood pressure values. Before starting
self-measurement, consult your doctor in this regard. From this point on, always take measurements on the
same arm.
