HOW TO TAKE A READING

1. Make sure you are seated with your feet flat and your

back and arm supported. Rest your arm at heart level.

CAUTION:

MAKE SURE ALL COMPONENTS ARE ASSEMBLED COR-

RECTLY AND SECURELY. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT

IN INJURY OR AN INCORRECT READING.

2. Locate brachial artery by placing two fingers 2 cm above

the bend of the elbow on the inside of the arm.

3. Put your left arm through the cuff loop. Place the bottom

edge of the cuff approximately 1-2 cm above the elbow.

Place the cuff so that the air-pipes were over the brachial

artery.

4. The cuff should be wrapped so that it fits snugly and

stays in place. You should be able to place one finger

between the cuff and arm. Fasten the cuff by folding the

end of the cuff over the D-ring and press the hook material

firmly against the fuzzy pile material. Make sure the cuff sits

correctly.

5. Insert stethoscope ear-pieces into ears.

6. Put the chestpiece over the brachial artery under or 1-2

cm below the cuff.
