• With repeated measurements, blood accumulates in the respective arm, which
repeated
repeated measurements,
can lead to false results. Correctly executed blood-pressure measurements
should therefore first be repeated after a 5 minute pause or after the arm has
been held up in order to allow the accumulated blood to flow away (after at least
3 minutes).

5.3. Fitting the cuff

a) Remove all eventual objects and jewellery (e.g.
wristwatch) from the wrist in question. Draw the
cuff over the wrist.
b) The distance between the cuff and the hand should
be approx. 10 mm.
c) Secure the cuff with the Velcro fastener, so that it
lies comfortably and not too tight, whereby no
space should remain between the cuff and the wrist.
d) Lay the arm on a table, with the palm upwards.
Support the arm a little with a rest (cushion), so that
the cuff rests at about the same height as the heart.
Take care, that the cuff lies free. Remain so for
2 minutes sitting quietly, before beginning with the
measurement.
e) In case the measurement is to be carried out on the
right wrist, position the cuff accordingly. However,
measurements should always be carried out on the
same wrist, so that the values can be compared
with each other.
