MEASUREMENT
With the individual in a sitting position and with the cuff attached as
previously mentioned, a blood pressure reading can be obtained.
Note:
- For accurate pressure measurement, take blood-pressure
readings in a seated position. Avoid leaning back while
the measurement is being taken.
- Ensure that the lower arm is raised so that the upper edge
of the cuff is on the same level as the heart.
- Ideally, place the palm of the hand facing upwards.
- In order to ensure a proper measurement, sit quietly and
avoid talking and moving the fingers and hand. Rapid
movements or other activities may alter blood pressure
readings.
- At any time, to stop the pressurizing process, press the
"
"Button; the cuff will stop inflating and air will exhaust
from the unit.
