A&D UA-787 manual Selecting the Correct Cuff Size

SELECTING THE CORRECT CUFF SIZE

Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. A cuff that is too large will produce a reading that is lower than the correct blood pressure; a cuff that is too small will produce a reading that is higher than the correct blood pressure. With your arm hanging at the side of your body, measure the circumference of your upper arm at the midpoint between the shoulder and elbow.

Using the right sized cuff is essential to an accurate measurement. Our unique Easy-Fit™ cuff is designed to accommodate most arm sizes, from 9-17" (23-43 cm). The Easy-Fit™ cuff is contoured to provide you with a quick and com- fortable fit. Just slide the cuff onto your upper arm and secure – it’s that sim- ple! To place the cuff on properly, please read the section Taking Your Blood Pressure (see pg. E-8).

If your arm circumference is greater than 17" (43 cm) or smaller than 9" (23 cm), you will need to purchase a different sized cuff than the one that is included in this box. Please call A&D Medical at 1-888-726-9966 (in Canada
