Suggestions for Measuring Blood Pressure
Avoid eating, drinking, smoking, or exercising for at least 30 minutes before
taking a measurement. You should also try to measure your blood pressure at
the same time each day.
Measurement should be taken in a quiet place and you should be in a
relaxed, seated position.
1. Align the wrist cuff with the level of your heart
and gently support your left arm with your right
hand. Do not place your right hand on the cuff
itself.
2. Press the START/STOP button.
Remain quiet, sit still and do not talk during the
measurement.
Notes:
* Always wait at least 2-3 minutes before taking another blood pressure
measurement.
You may require more rest time between readings depending on your
individual physiological characteristics.
* Only use the IW2 to measure your own blood pressure since the results
of measurements are stored in memory.
* Always wrap the wrist cuff around your wrist before starting to take a
measurement.
* Do not measure your blood pressure while you are in a vehicle.
* Always measure your blood pressure on the same wrist.
