Tie the Cuff

1. Tie the cuff on your upper arm, then
position the tube off-center toward the inner
side of arm in line with the little finger.
2. The cuff should be snug but not too tight.
You should be able to insert one finger
between the cuff and your arm.
3. Sit comfortably with your tested
arm resting on a flat surface.
4. Patients with Hypertension:
The middle of the cuff should be
at the level of the right atrium of the heart;
Before starting measurement, please sit
comfortably with legs uncrossed,
feet flat on the floor, back and arm
supported.
Rest for 5 minutes before measuring.
Wait at least 3 minutes between
measurements. This allows your blood
circulation to recover.
For a meaningful comparison, try to
measure under similar conditions. For
example, take daily measurements at
approximately the same time, position of
upper arm, or as directed by a physician.
