Correct Method Of Measurement - Medline MDS1001U Guía De Operación

CORRECT METHOD MEASUREMENT
To obtain the most accurate blood pressure measurement, please follow these
important directions:
• Be seated in a chair with back support.
• Rest your arm on a table so the cuff is at the same level as your heart with the artery
indicator aligning with your brachial artery.
• Place both feet flat on the ground.
IMPORTANT:
The arm cuff must be at the same level as your heart, or accurate measurement
will not be possible. (Your heart is located slightly below your left armpit.)
