Attaching the cuff
Place the cuff on to the bare left upper
arm. The circulation of the arm must
not be hindered by tight clothing or
®
similar.
The cuff must be placed on the upper
arm so that the bottom edge is
positioned 2 – 3 cm above the elbow
and over the artery. The line points to
the centre of the palm.
Now tighten the free end of the cuff,
but make sure that it is not too tight
around the arm and close the hook-
and-loop fastener. The cuff should be
fastened so that two fingers fit under
the cuff.
Now insert the cuff line into the
connection for the cuff connector.
If the measurement is performed
on the right upper arm, the line
should be located on the inside of your elbow. Ensure that
your arm is not pressing on the line.
Blood pressure may vary between the right and left arm, which
may mean that the measured blood pressure values are diffe-
rent. Always perform the measurement on the same arm.
