•Avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, or exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement.
•Do not move or talk during measurement.

Posture
Sit upright with your back straight.
Remove tight fitting clothing from your upper arm, and any thick clothing such as a sweater.
Do not place the cuff over thick clothes and do not roll up your sleeve if it is too tight.
Place your arm on a table so that the cuff will be at the same level as your heart.

The gap between the chair and the top of the table should be between 25cm to 30cm.
