How to Sit Correctly When Taking a Measurement
Correct posture during measurement is necessary to get accurate
results.
Notes:
• Measurements should be taken in a quiet place and you should be in
a relaxed, seated position. Make sure that the room is not too hot or
too cold.
• Avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, or exercising for at least 30
minutes before taking a measurement.
• Do not move or talk during measurement.
Correct
Posture
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 so that it becomes tight
around the arm.
Sit upright with
your back
straight.
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.
