Applying the blood pressure monitor
1

The blood pressure must be measured on a bare wrist. The
cuff should not be applied on top of protruding wrist bones as
it will not lie evenly around the wrist.
The monitor has a fixed connection to the cuff and the cuff
must not be removed from the monitor.
Now pull the cuff over your wrist. The blood pressure monitor
is positioned on the inside of the wrist about 1 to 1.5 cm from
the crease of the wrist.
The cuff should fit securely but not tightly. Please note
that incorrectly applying the cuff may distort the meas-
ured result. The Veroval
has a cuff size of 12.5 to 21 cm. For wrists with a larger
diameter, it is recommended to switch to a Veroval
upper arm blood pressure monitor because otherwise
precise blood pressure values cannot be measured.

This innovative Veroval
nology ensures a comfortable measurement. Inflation to
190 mmHg is required for the first measurement. For
subsequent measurements, inflation pressure is adjusted
individually based on previously measured blood pressure
values. This allows for more comfortable measurements.
Carrying out the measurement
You should take your blood pressure in a quiet place, in a relax-
ed and comfortable seated position.
Measurement can be taken on the right or left wrist. We
recommend you perform the measurement on the left wrist.
Over the long term, the wrist giving higher readings should be
used for blood pressure monitoring. However, if there is a very
clear difference between readings on either wrist, you need
to check with your doctor which wrist you should use for the
measurement.
Always take measurements on the same wrist.
We recommend that you measure your blood pressure
while sitting with your back supported by the back of the
chair. Place both feet flat on the floor next to each other. Do
not cross your legs. You must support your arm and bend it
slightly. You must also make sure that the cuff is positioned
at the level of the heart. If not, the measurements may vary
