Advice on use
• For consistency, always measure your blood
pressure at the same time each day.
• Before each measurement, relax for about five
minutes.
• When performing multiple measurements on an
individual, wait five minutes between each mea-
surement.
• Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes of
eating, drinking, smoking or exercising.
• Repeat the measurement if you are unsure of the
results.
• Measurements are for your information only –
they are no substitute for a medical examination.
Discuss the measurements with your doctor and
never base any medical decisions on them (e.g.
medicines and their administration).
• Do not use the wrist blood pressure monitor on
newborns or patients with pre-eclampsia. Consult
a doctor before using the wrist blood pressure
monitor during pregnancy.
