POSITIONING THE ARM CUFF
Ensure the arm cuff is correctly placed to obtain
an accurate reading.
If your physician has diagnosed you with
poor circulation in your left arm, use your right
arm.
1. Choose the position from which you wish to
measure, sitting or lying down.
2. Roll or push up your sleeve to expose the
skin.
3. Put arm through the cuff loop.
4. Place cuff about an inch (1-2 cm) above your
elbow.
Use cushions or other supports if necessary to
adjust.
The air tube should run down, between the inside
of your forearm and the side of your chest, in line
with your middle finger.
5. Fasten the arm cuff so it fits snugly. If the cuff
is too loose, the measurement will not be
accurate.
PREPARING TO TAKE BLOOD PRESSURE
MEASUREMENT
You can choose to take blood pressure while
sitting or lying down. Below are some helpful tips
for taking a measurement.
Be sure to set the clock before taking your
first measurement, or whenever you replace
the batteries, so that the date and time are
stored in the memory with your history. For
instructions, refer to
Monitor Settings
section.
