Measuring blood pressure and pulse

6 Measuring blood pressure and pulse
6.1 Before measuring
▪
Choose the right cuff size. The blood pressure cuff
size is printed on the cuff.
▪
Avoid eating, smoking or any strenuous activity
directly before the measurement. All these factors
affect the results. Before measuring your blood
pressure, you should relax in a quiet atmosphere for
5 minutes.
▪
Always measure on the same arm (normally your
left).
▪
Blood pressure changes over the course of the day.
Measurements are only comparable when they are
measured at the same time of day and under the
same circumstances.
6.2 Putting the blood pressure cuff on
WARNING
Risk of injury due to incorrectly connected air
hose!
▪
Do not kink, knot or stretch the air hose.
WARNING
The blood pressure monitor must only be
operated with the original blood pressure cuff,
since otherwise there is a danger of incorrect
measurements or injury!
