Place cuff in such a manner that the lower cuff edge finishes
ca. 2 – 3 cm above the elbow and the centre of the rubber bag
rests on top of the artery.

Taking the measurement:

Fully close the valve by turning the air release screw to the
right. Inflate the cuff to above the systolic pressure. By tur-
ning the air release valve the air release speed can be ad-
justed. The World Health Organisation (WHO) recom-
mends a deflation rate of 2 – 3 mmHg per second. To avoid
a reading error, read the pressure values perpendicular to
the scale.
After the measurement is completed open the release valve
to fully deflate the cuff.
Cuffs:
