get the pressure drop slowly and steadily at about 2-3 mmHg per second. Listen
and watch the dial plate carefully during deflation, the point at which repetitive,
clear tapping sounds first appear for at least two consecutive beats gives the
systolic blood pressure. The point where the repetitive sounds finally disappear
gives the diastolic blood pressure;
• After you get the diastolic pressure, screw the deflation button to the end for
rapid deflation;
• Remove the stethoscope and cuff from arm after the pressure in the cuff bot-
toms out.
