5. Taking a Blood Pressure Measurement
5.1. Before the measurement:
• Avoid eating, smoking as well as all forms of exertion directly before
your measurement. These factors influence the measurement result.
Relax by sitting in an armchair in a quiet atmosphere for about ten
minutes before your measurement.
• Always measure on the same wrist (normally left).
• Compare readings at the same time of day, since your blood pressure
changes during the course of the day.
