TIPS FOR OBTAINING ACCURATE MEASUREMENTS
Your blood pressure varies according to your posture, the time of day
and a range of other factors. Ideally, you should measure your blood
pressure in the same posture at the same time every day.
1
Make sure that your posture is correct.
Sit up straight, take a deep breath and relax.
2
Place your palm facing up and
keep your fingers relaxed.
3
It is important to have the
cuff level with your heart.
Place a folded towel or similar
under your arm.
