5.3. Using the cuff
a) Pass the end of the cuff through the flat
metal ring so that a loop is formed. The
hook and loop material must be facing
outward. (Ignore this step if the cuff has
already been prepared.)
b) Slide left arm through cuff until the bottom
edge is about 1/2” above your elbow. The
rubber tube should be on the inside of your
arm extending downward to your hand.
IMPORTANT:
The red strip on the edge
of the cuff (Artery Mark) must lie over the
artery which runs down the inner side of the
arm.
TIP:
Align red artery mark to pinky finger.
c) To secure the cuff, wrap it around your
arm and press the hook and loop material
together. Check the size range indicator on
the cuff. The arrow should point within
the size range on the inside of the cuff.
d) There should be little free space between
the arm and the cuff. You should be able
to fit 2 fingers between your arm and the
cuff. Clothing must not restrict the arm.
Any piece of clothing which does must be
removed. Cuffs that don’t fit properly
result in false measurement values.
Measure your arm circumference if you
are not sure of proper fit.
e) Lay your arm on a table so the cuff is at
the same height as your heart. Make sure
the tube is not kinked.
f) Remain seated quietly for five minutes
before you begin the measurement.
