Reference for selecting a cuff
The AHA (American Heart Association) recommends that the cuff width be 40% of the
circumference of the upper arm. Refer to the following graph and select the cuff which suits the
patient’s arm.
NOTE
• If a range of arm circumference appropriate for the cuff is prescribed, use a
cuff within that range.
• To obtain accurate measured values, select a wide cuff which can be attached
to the upper arm. Measuring with a very narrow cuff may result in measured
values higher than the actual values.
• The YP-943P NIBP cuff is for standard size adult. Do not use this cuff when it
does not fit the patient.
