MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

Important Notes:
• Blood pressure changes with every heartbeat and is
in constant fluctuation throughout the day.
• Blood pressure measurement can be affected by the
position of the user, his or her physiologic condition
and other factors. For greatest accuracy, wait 1
hour after exercising, bathing, eating, drinking
beverages with alcohol or caffeine, or smoking
to measure blood pressure.
• Before measurement, it is suggested that you sit
quietly for 15 minutes as measurements taken
during a relaxed state will have greater accuracy.
You should not be physically tired or exhausted
while taking a measurement.
• During the measurement, do not talk or move your
arm or hand muscles.
• See page 23 for additional notes regarding your
blood pressure measurement.
