4 Operation
4.1 Fitting the cuff
First attach the free end of
the cuff’s air tube
to the
designated connector
on
the unit. Open up the cuff to a
ring and slip it over the bare
left upper arm just above the
elbow region. If wearing tight clothing, ensure that the circulation in the arm is not
impaired when rolling up the sleeve. Please ensure that the cuff buckle is never
positioned directly over the artery, as this can result in an incorrect blood pressure
reading.
The tube should run along the centre of the inner arm towards the palm of the
hand. Ensure that the cuff itself is not twisted in any way.
Fasten the pressure cuff in such a way that it fits tightly but does not constrict the
arm. Do this by passing the end through the buckle, pulling it tight and attaching
it to the Velcro fastener.
4.2 Correct position for taking readings
Take readings while in a seated
position. Relax your arm and
rest it lightly on a surface
such as a table. Relax during
the measuring process: do not
move or talk, as this can affect
the results.
