The patient should sit or lie comfortably. The arm should be supported
on a flat surface at heart level. (If the arm's position varies, or is not
level with the heart, measurement values obtained will not be consistent
with patient's true blood p re s s u re). Observer should view manometer (gauge)
in a direct line to avoid ''parallax erro r'' .
