Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. A cuff
that is too large will produce a reading that is lower than the correct
blood pressure; a cuff that is too small will produce a reading that is
higher than the correct blood pressure. With your arm hanging at the
side of your body, measure the circumference of your upper arm at the
midpoint between the shoulder and elbow.

Cuff Size Indicator On The Cuff
Our cuff has an indicator which tells you whether you are using the
correct cuff size or not. Place the cuff on your arm (see Page E-6
to learn how to put the cuff on correctly) and if the Index Mark points
within the Proper Fit Range, you are using the correct cuff size. If the
Index points outside of the Proper Fit Range, contact A&D Medical
at 1-888-726-9966 for more information on where to obtain a cuff
replacement.
NOTE: If the cuff size indicator falls on a borderline between two size
categories, pick either one and make sure to use the same cuff size for each
measurement.
