Difference between upper-arm and wrist measurement

The blood pressure measured with a watch-type blood pressure monitor may differ from the values measured on the upper arm. Measurement with a wrist blood pressure monitor may show a difference of up to 10 mmHg in a healthy adult.

In those who suffer from hypertension, arteriosclerosis, diabetes, kidney failure and other disorders of the circulation system, the difference may exceed 10 mmHg. In that case measurement on the upper arm is to be preferred.

In case of doubt, consult your doctor about the best method in your case or make a comparison between a measurement on the upper arm and one on the wrist.
