MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

Note:
• Position the monitor at the same level as your heart
during measurement to ensure accurate readings.
• Blood pressure changes with every heartbeat and is in
constant fluctuation throughout the day.
• Blood pressure measurement can be affected by the
position of the user, his or her physiologic condition and
other factors.
Before Measurement:
To help ensure an accurate reading, follow these
instructions before taking a measurement:
• Wait 1 hour after exercising, bathing, eating, drinking
beverages with alcohol or caffeine, or smoking, to
measure blood pressure.
• Sit quietly and rest for 15 minutes.
• Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking
measurements during stressful times.
• Take your reading in a comfortable environment
as measurements can be affected by hot or cold
temperatures. Take your blood pressure at normal
body temperature.
