Hold your arm with your palm facing up and
tie the cuff on your upper arm, then position
the tube off-center toward the inner side of
arm in line with the little finger. Or position the
artery mark over the main artery (on the
inside of your arm). Note: Locate the main
artery by pressing with 2 fingers
approximately 2 cm above the bend of your
elbow on the inside of your left arm. Identify
where the pulse can be felt the strongest.
This is your main artery.
The cuff should be snug but not too tight.
You should be able to insert one finger
between the cuff and your arm.
Remove all jewelry, such as watches and
bracelets from your left arm.
Note: If your doctor has diagnosed you with
poor circulation in your left arm, use your right
arm.
Roll or push up your sleeve to expose the
skin. Make sure your sleeve is not too tight.

Sit comfortably with your tested arm resting on a
flat surface. Place your elbow on a table so that
the cuff is at the same level as your heart. Turn
your palm upwards. Sit upright in a chair, and take
5-6 deep breaths.
Rest for 5 minutes before first measurement.
Wait at least 3 minutes between measurements.
This allows your blood circulation to recover.
The patient must relax as much as possible and do
not move and talk during the measurement procedure.
For a meaningful comparison, try to measure under
similar conditions. For example, take daily
measurements at approximately the same time, on the
same arm, or as directed by a physician.
6.
Take the measurement in a silent room.
The cuff should maintain at the same level as the
right atrium of the heart.
Please sit comfortably. Do not cross your legs and
keep your feet flat on the ground.
Keep your back against the backrest of the chair.
