Correct Measuring Posture
1. Place your elbow on a
table so that the cuff is at
the same level as your
heart as Fig. A.
Note: Your heart is located
slightly below your
armpit.
Relax your entire body,
especially the area
between your elbow and
fingers.
2. If the cuff is not at the same level as your heart or if
you can not keep your arm
completely still throughout
the reading, use a soft
object such as folded towel
to support your arm as
Fig. B. Do not allow hard
objects to come in contact
with the wrist cuff.
3. Turn your palm upwards.
4. Sit upright in a chair, and
take 5-6 deep breaths.
