5. Measuring blood pressure
Positioning cuff
Fit the cuff round your bare left
upper arm. Blood circulation in the
arm should not be restricted by
tight clothing or other objects.
The cuff should be placed on the
upper arm so that the lower edge is
2 to 3 cm above the bend of the el-
bow and above the artery. The tube
should be in line with the centre of
the palm.
Now place the free end of the cuff
snugly, but not too tightly, around
the arm, and fix it with the Velcro
fastener. The cuff should be fitted
tight enough to allow just two fin-
gers to fit beneath the cuff.
Insert the cuff tubing into the
socket for the cuff attachment.
