Preparing to measure your blood pressure
Observe the following instructions
when measuring your blood pressure:
Avoid smoking or drinking coffee
for one hour before measuring
your blood pressure.
Sit comfortably for the blood pres-
sure measurement. Support your
back and arms. Do not cross your
legs. Place your feet flat on the
floor.
Relax for 5 minutes before taking
a measurement.
Do not move during the measure-
ment.

Attaching the cuff

The measurement should be taken from
the bare upper arm.
In the case of tightly fitting outer
clothing, ensure that the blood supply to
the arm is not cut off when the sleeve is
rolled up (if necessary remove the article of
clothing before taking the measurement).
¬ Open out the cuff into the shape of a
ring and slide it over the upper arm
until the bottom edge of the cuff is
about 2-3 cm above the elbow. The
cuff must be positioned so that the
marking is over the artery (see illustra-
tion 3).
