CORRECT METHOD OF MEASUREMENT

To obtain the most accurate blood pressure measurement, please follow these important directions:
1.Sit comfortably in a chair with your back supported. Place both feet flat on the floor and keep your
legs uncrossed.
2.Rest your left arm on a table and position your palm upwards.
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.)
3.Remain still, avoid moving or talking during the measurement.
