TAKING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE

Tips for Blood Pressure Monitoring:

☞

Relax for about 5 minutes before measurement.

☞

Do not smoke or ingest caffeine at least 30 minutes prior to

measurement.

☞

Remove constricting clothing and place cuff on bare wrist.

☞

Unless your physician recommends otherwise, use left arm

to measure pressure.

☞

Do not talk during measurement.

☞

Do not cross legs. Keep your feet flat on floor during

measurement.

Now you are ready. Follow these simple steps:

1. Sit comfortably in a chair near a flat surface.

2. With palm facing upward, attach monitor to the

inside of your left wrist and fasten securely. The top

edge of the cuff should align with the crease of your

wrist.

3. Position your wrist so it is level with your

heart, using an arm rest if needed. Positioning

of the wrist at heart level is critical for accurate

measurement.

4. Press the START button. Your average blood

pressure reading will appear with the number

of measurements stored in memory (i.e. A25 = total of 25

measurements stored in memory). As the cuff pressurizes,

measurement will begin and the Cuff Inflation Meter will

show on the display screen. It is normal for the cuff to feel

very tight.

NOTE: To stop inflation at any time, press START

5. Remain still and refrain from talking or moving during reading.
