BLOOD PRESSURE Blood Pressure is a measure of the blood’s pressure in the circulatory system, which changes constantly during the course of the cardiac cycle. Blood pressure readings report two values. The higher reading (systolic pressure) shows the highest pressure in the arteries occurring when the heart contracts. The lower reading (diastolic pressure) shows the lowest pressure in the arteries, which occurs right before the heart contracts.
Inflating the cuff: Close the bulb’s air valve by turning the air release valve clockwise. Squeeze the inflation bulb at a steady rate until the gauge’s needle points at approximately 30mmHg above the individual’s normal systolic pressure value. If the individual’s normal blood pressure is not known, it is recommended to inflate to 200mmHg.
MAINTENANCE Recommended care and maintenance: Do not drop or pull excessively on the sphygmomanometer components. Never inflate beyond 300mmHg. Do not expose the cuff to direct sunlight. Do not put the sphygmomanometer in contact with sharp objects which could pierce the material and cause damage. Do not dismantle or disassemble. Cleaning Wipe off the manometer and bulb with a clean, damp cloth. Wash the cuff with soap and cold water, rinse and air dry. Do not press cuff with a hot iron.
