4. Taking the measurement

a) manometers with screwable air release valve (description: right hand use)
Take the instrument into your right hand and check that the air release valve is
closed. (Turn clockwise between thumb and index finger.)
The cuff is inflated by pumping the bulb. The pointer of the instrument goes up and
shows the respective pressure in the cuff. Increase the pressure to approx. 20 -30

mm Hg or higher. Wait for 4-5 pulse beats, then open the air release valve a little.
The recommended descending rate is 2-3 mmHg per second.
Observe the pointer going down. As soon as pulsation is audible in the stethoscope,
read the upper (systolic) value on the manometer. On continued air release a
number of pulsations of decreasing intensity will follow. The last audible pulsation
gives the lower (diastolic) value.
The user him- or herself can adjust the model SWITCH manometer for right or left
hand use. Individual identification is possible by means of (inscribing) the various
color labels attached (refer to item 8).
b) manometer with automatic valve
The handling of this instrument is easier and more comfortable. By pumping the
bulb the hexagonal button in the centre of regulating screw comes up. Measuring
should be made as described in chapter 4a.
The air release speed is fixed once. For that turn the regulating screw with the arrow
mark.

or left stop.
After having taken the blood pressure, press the button in the centre of the
regulation screw for a quick and complete venting of the cuff. Press this button too
to stop the measuring immediately.
