CORRECT POSITION DURING MEASUREMENT

Sit down at the table so that
during the blood pressure
measurement your hand is on
its surface. Make sure that the
place where the cuff is put on
the upper arm is about the
same level as the heart and
the hand freely lies on the ta-
ble and does not move (Fig. 4).
You can also measure your
blood pressure when lying on your back. Look up, stay calm and do not move during
the measurement. Make sure that the place where the cuff is put on the upper arm is
about the same level as the heart (Fig. 6).
Measured values may vary slightly, depending on the position during the
measurement. If the cuff is above/below the level of the heart, resulting reading

1. Apply the cuff to your left upper arm so that the air
tube is directed to your palm (Fig. 7). If the measurement
on your left arm is diffi cult, you may use your right arm. In
this case remember that the readings may diff er by 5-10
mmHg and even more.
2. Wrap the cuff around your upper arm so that the bottom
of the cuff is approximately 2-3 cm above your elbow. Air
tube should be directed towards the palm (Fig. 8).
3. Fix the cuff so that it fi ts tightly to the arm, but see that
it is not overtight (Fig. 9). Too tight or too free placement
of the cuff may give inaccurate readings.
4. If the hand is cone-shaped, it is recommended to put
the cuff spirally, as shown in the fi gure (Fig. 10).
5. If the rolled-up sleeve squeezes the arm interfering
with free blood fl ow the Device may give inaccurate
fi gures not corresponding to your actual blood pressure
(Fig. 11).
