The blood pressure can differ between your right and left wrist and therefore also the measured blood pressure values can be different. Omron recommends to always use the same wrist for a measurement. If the values between the two wrists differ substantially, please check with your doctor which wrist to use for your measurement. - Page 13 3.Using the Monitor Hold the bottom part of the wrist cuff and wrap it around the wrist while pulling so that it fits comfortably. Make sure that the wrist cuff does not cover the protruding part of the wrist bone (ulna) on the outside of the wrist. Unless the wrist cuff is wrapped securely around the wrist, it may not be possible to take correct measurements.
