Important Observations to be
followed when Self Testing
Always take your blood pressure in a calm and relaxed
state. It is recommended to do two checks daily,– on
getting up in the morning and again at night before
retiring.
The blood pressure is best taken sitting down. Sit
comfortably in an armchair or at a table where you can
easily support your arm, holding it slightly bent.
The measurement is taken on the free upper arm.
Please ensure that there is no restriction from a tight,
pushed-up sleeve. It may be necessary to remove the
garment.
During measurement the arm has to be kept absolutely
still.
Between successive measurements an interval of at
least two minutes must be allowed.
Differences in blood pressure are quite normal. Even in
closely repeated measurements there can be marked
20
differences. One single measurement, or measure-
ments taken at irregular intervals, do not give any clear
indication of the real blood pressure. An accurate eva-
luation is only possible when measurements are taken
on a regular basis and for the established values to be
entered in the blood pressure check card.
Self testing does not mean self treatment. Never
change the doses of any medication as prescribed by
your doctor.
Irregular heart beats can influence the sensitivity of the
unit and result in inaccurate measurement values being
displayed. Adverse results can also be experienced by
patients with a pacemaker who have a weak pulse. The
BP unit itself has however no detrimental effect on the
pacemaker.
Using your blood pressure monitor in the vicinity of
strong electro-magnetic fields, (ie mobile telephones)
can also cause faulty readings.
