Suggestions Before Measureing Blood Pressure

Align the wrist cuff with the level of your heart (breast height) and gently support your left hand with your right hand.

1.Avoid eating, smoking and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking measurement. Also rest for at least 10 to 15 minutes before taking a reading.

2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.

3. The cuff should be applied to your left wrist.

4. Measurments should be taken in a quiet place and you should be in a relaxed, seated position. Gently support your left hand in your right hand.

Do not place your right hand on the cuff itself.

5.Remain still and do not talk during the measurements.

6.Keep a record of you blood pressure and pulse for you doctor. Remeber, a single measurement does not provide an accurate reading of your true blood pressure. You need to take and record several readings over a period of time. Try to mesure your blood pressure at the same time each day for consistnecy.

7.Wait 2-3 minutes between successive mesurements. Waiting allows the engorged blood vessels to return to normal. You may require more rest time between readings depending on your individual physiological characteristics.
