Healthy Living monitors measure blood pressure and pulse rate
by using an oscillometric method, meaning the fluctuations in
pressure are measured. Once the cuff is wrapped around the
upper arm, the monitor is turned on and you begin to inflate the
cuff. The inflation of the cuff creates pressure around the arter-
ies inside the arm. Within the cuff is a gauge which senses the
fluctuations (oscillations) in pressure. The fluctuations mea-
sured are the arteries contracting with each heart beat as a
result of the pressure the cuff has placed on the arm. The mon-
itor measures these contractions and converts the information
to a digital value. That is the result displayed on the monitor
screen.
