Correct posture and cuff positioning
Correct posture during measurement
is important to obtain accurate readings.
For greater accuracy, we recommend using
the left arm because it's closer to your heart.
The correct position of the cuff should be 2-3 cm
above the elbow, with tube outlet facing in the
direction of your hand and running along the
centre of the inside of your elbow, close the
cuff with Velcro fasterner so it fits tightly but
comfortable on your arm. There should not be
a space between the cuff and your arm.
The ActivScan™ 9 provides on-screen
animations to help you achieve the correct
posture and fit the cuff properly. This assisted
reading function will be displayed automatically when the device is first used and then
can be displayed optionally before each reading by selecting the Settings icon
The on-screen animation guide can also be viewed at any time by choosing the Information
icon
from the main menu.
