1. Blood pressure measurements should be interpreted by

with your medical history. By using the unit regularly
and recording the results for a physician to interpret,
you can keep a physician informed of the continuing
trends in your blood pressure.
2. Wrap the cuff snugly around your arm, the cuff must be
at the same level as your heart.

reading will not be achieved.
4. Take measurement in a relaxed position without talking.
5. Do not wrap the cuff over a jacket/sweater sleeve or
an accurate reading will not be achieved.
6. Keep in mind that blood pressure naturally varies
throughout the day and is affected by many different
factors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, medication
and physical activity.
7. Blood pressure measurements taken with the unit are
equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using
the cuff/stethoscope auscultation method and are within
the accuracy limits prescribed by the American National
