Applying the Cuff
Press your brachial artery approximately 1 inch (2 ~ 3 cm) above
the elbow on the inside of your left arm to determine where your
strongest pulse is.
Slide the end of arm cuff furthest from the tube through the metal
ring to a loop. The smooth cloth should be on the inside of the cuff.
If the cuff is located correctly, the velcro will be on the outside of
the cuff and metal ring will not touch your skin.
Put left arm through the cuff loop.
The bottom of the cuff should be approximately1 inch (2 ~ 3 cm)
above the inner elbow. The tube should lie over the brachial artery
on the inner part of the arm.
Pull the cuff so that the top and
bottom edges aretightened
around your arm.
When the cuff is positioned
properly, press the velcro firmly
against the pile side of the cuff.
Sit on a chair and lay your forearm
on the table sothat the cuff is at
the same level as your heart.
Relax your arm and turn your arm upward.
Make sure there are no kinks in the air tube.
