Taking a measurement

5.1. Before the measurement

• Avoid eating, smoking as well as all forms of exertion directly before the
measurement. All these factors influence the measurement result. Try to find
time to relax by sitting in an armchair in a quiet atmosphere for about ten
minutes before measurement on the left wrist.
• If you compare readings note the time of day as blood pressure fluctuates
throughout the day.

5.2. Common sources of error:

Note: Comparable blood pressure measurements always require the
same conditions! Quiet conditions are always required for your
optimal measurement.
• All efforts by the patient to support the arm can increase the blood pressure.
Make sure you are in a comfortable, relaxed position and do not flex any of
the muscles in the measurement arm during the measurement. Use a cushion
