5. Measuring your blood pressure
The 10 golden rules of blood pressure measurement
Many factors play a role in blood pressure measurement. These ten general rules help you to correctly carry out the measurement.
1. Rest for about 5 minutes before measuring your blood pressure.
Even working at your desk increases blood pressure by an
average of about 6 mmHg systolic and 5 mmHg diastolic.
2. Do not consume any nicotine or caeine up to one hour before
measurement.
3. Do not measure when you have a strong urge to urinate. A full
bladder can increase blood pressure by about 10mmHg.
4. Measure your blood pressure on a completely bare wrist and
in a comfortable upright seated position. The blood circulation
must not be constricted by a rolled-up sleeve, for example.
5. If you are using a wrist monitor, hold the cu at heart height
during measurement. The cu of an upper arm monitor is
naturally positioned at the correct height.
6. Please do not talk or move when measuring your blood
pressure. Talking increases values by about 6–7 mmHg.
