The opening B (see Fig. 2) on the cuff, opposite the grip tab, should lie in the
■
inner elbow. The tube should lie in the middle of the inner elbow and point
towards the hand.
Now bend your arm slightly, grasp the free end of the cuff, wrap it firmly
■
round your arm and close the hook-and-loop fastener.
The cuff should fit securely but not too tightly. You should be able to insert
two fingers between the arm and the cuff. Make sure the tube is not bent
or damaged.
Important: It is essential that the cuff is correctly fitted to obtain correct
measurement results. The marking on the edge of the cuff helps you to
choose the correct cuff size. The white arrow must point to an area within
the sizing scale. If it is outside the scale, it is not possible to guarantee a
correct measurement and a different cuff size is required (see Chapter 10
'Accessories').
This innovative Veroval
for comfortable measurement. The inflation pressure is determined
independently for each measurement and depends on the corresponding
systolic blood pressure value.
5.3 Carrying out the measurement
You should take your blood pressure in a quiet place, in a relaxed and
■
comfortable seated position.
Measurement can be taken on the right or left arm. We recommend
■
performing the measurement on the left upper arm. Over the long term, the
arm giving higher readings should be used for blood pressure monitoring.
However, if there is a very clear difference between readings on either
arm, you need to check with your doctor which arm you should use for the
measurement.
Always measure on the same arm and place your forearm in a relaxed position
■
on a support.
We recommend that you measure your blood pressure while sitting with your
■
back supported by the back of the chair. Place both feet flat on the floor next
to each other. Do not cross your legs. Relax your forearm and hand with your
palm facing upwards on a support and make sure the cuff is on the same level
as your heart.
