When wrapping the cuff, wrap it loosely enough
around the arm so that two fingers can be placed
between the cuff and the arm. If the cuff is wrapped
more tightly or loosely than this, inaccurate blood
pressure readings may result.
If you are wearing a shirt that might restrict
circulation in your upper arm or you roll your
sleeve up over the upper arm, the blood flow will
be restricted, preventing accurate measurement.
