Applying Your Cuff
It is important to avoid smoking, eating, taking medication,
alcohol consumption or physical activity 30 minutes prior to
taking a reading. If for any reason you are unable to or
should not use your left arm, please modify the instructions
for cuff application to your right arm. Your physician can
help you identify which arm is best for you to take
measurements from.
1. Remove any constrictive
clothing or jewelry that
may interfere with cuff
placement.
2. Be seated at a table or desk with your feet flat on
the floor.
3. The cuff should not be plugged into the monitor until after
the cuff is applied to your arm.
Note:
Blood pressure naturally varies from one arm to the other;
therefore, measure your blood pressure on the same arm to
ensure comparability of the two readings.
4. Unfold the Easy Cuff and
apply to your left arm. Position
the air tube over the main
artery on the inside of your
arm.
5. The bottom edge of the cuff
should be positioned
approximately one inch above
the elbow joint.
6. Reaching underneath your
left arm with your right hand,
pull the end of the cuff
towards your body to tighten
the cuff. Incorrectly applied cuffs may result in inaccurate
readings or showing error message.
