BEFORE TAKING A MEASUREMENT

To ensure a reliable reading follow these recommendations:
1. Avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, exercising and bathing for at
least 30 minutes before taking measurement. Rest for at least 15
minutes before taking a measurement.
2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking
measurements during stressful times.
3. The cuff can be applied to your left or right
wrist.
4. Measurements should be taken in a quiet place
and you should be in a relaxed, seated position.
5. Remain still and do not talk during the
measurements.
6. Keep a record of your blood pressure and pulse for your physician.
A single measurement may not provide an accurate indication of your
true blood pressure. You need to take and record several readings over
a period of time. Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time
each day for consistency.
