Cuff Selection and Connection
Warning
• If a cuff is used on a patient with an infection, treat the cuff as medical
waste, or disinfect before reuse.
Caution
• Do not use the cuff if it is damaged or has holes.
• Use the appropriate cuff size to ensure correct measurements. If a
cuff that is too large is used, the measured blood pressure value tends
to be lower than the actual blood pressure. If a cuff that is too small is
used, the measured blood pressure value tends to be higher.
Note:
• Make sure that the connectors are tightly connected.
Selecting the cuff
Measure the circumference of the patient’s arm and select the cuff
size that is appropriate for the circumference.
It is important to use the correct sized cuff for a patient in order to get
an accurate reading.
