How to measure your blood pressure correctly

Before taking a reading, you should sit still for around 10 minutes, and you should wait
1 minute between each reading. While taking a measurement, remain sitted and stay
calm and relaxed. You should also try not to talk. This should improve the accuracy of
readings.

Correct posture

Rest your left arm on a table and relax your arm.
Correct cuff placement
Put the cuff around your arm with the tube positioned on the inner side of your arm,
around 2cm above the elbow. The Withings logo should be on top. Wrap the arm cuff
snugly.
Correct level
Make sure the cuff is at the same level than your heart. If you can not place your arm at
the same level than your heart, use a cushion. Your arm should lightly bend while taking
the measurement.
