CORRECT MEASUREMENT POSTURE

1. Place your elbow on a table so that

the cuff is at the same level as your

heart as shown in Fig. A. Relax your

entire body, especially between

your elbow and fingers.

Note: Your heart is located slightly

below your armpit.

2. If the cuff is not at the same level

as your heart or if you cannot keep

your arm completely still throughout

the reading, use a soft object such

as a folded towel to support your

wrist as shown in Fig. B.

3. Turn your palm upwards.

4. Sit upright in a chair, and take 5-6

deep breaths.

Note:

• Avoid leaning back while the

measurement is being taken as

shown in Fig. C.

• This device should not be used

when your wrist is wounded or

injured.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

Important Notes:

• Position the monitor at the same level as your heart during

measurement to ensure accurate readings.

• Blood pressure changes with every heartbeat and is in

constant fluctuation throughout the day.

• Blood pressure measurement can be affected by the

position of the user, his or her physiologic condition and

other factors. For greatest accuracy, wait 1 hour after

exercising, bathing, eating, drinking beverages with alcohol

or caffeine, or smoking to measure blood pressure.

• Before a measurement, it is suggested that you sit quietly for

15 minutes as measurements taken during a relaxed state

will have greater accuracy. You should not be physically

tired or exhausted while taking a measurement.

• During the measurement, do not talk or move your arm or

hand muscles.

• See page 26 for additional notes regarding your blood

pressure measurement.
