1. Sit comfortably on a chair with your legs
uncrossed and your feet flat on the floor and
place your elbow on a table in order to relax
before starting blood pressure measurement.
NOTES: • The distance from the top of your seat
measuring to the top of the table you
are sitting at, should be 12±2 inches
(30±5 cm). If the distance measured
between the top of your seat and table
do not fall within this parameter, please
correct your seat or table height.
• The cuff must be approximately the
same height as your heart. If the cuff is
too high above your heart, your blood
pressure will read artificially low. If the
cuff is too low below your heart, your
blood pressure will be artificially high.
• Relax your wrist and hand. Do not
bend your wrist back, clench your fist,
or bend your wrist forward.
