4.3.  Fitting the cuff

a)   Push the cuff over the left upper arm so that the tube 

points in the direction of the lower arm.

b)   Lay the cuff on the arm as illustrated. Make certain 

that the lower edge of the cuff lies approximately  
2 to 3 cm above the elbow and that the rubber tube 
leaves the cuff on the inner side of the arm.

Important! 

The mark (ca. 3 cm long bar) must lie 

exactly over the artery which runs down the inner 
side of the arm.

c)   Tighten the free end of the cuff and close the cuff 

with the closer.

d)   There must be no free space between the arm and 

the cuff as this would influence the result. Clothing 
must not restrict the arm. Any piece of clothing which 
does (e.g. a pullover) must be taken off.

e)   Secure the cuff with the closer in such a way that it 

lies comfortably and is not too tight. Lay the arm on 
the table (palm upwards) so that the cuff is at the 
same height as the heart. Make sure that the tube is 
not kinked.

f)   Remain seated quietly for two minutes before you 

begin the measurement.

Comment

If it is not possible to fit the cuff to the left arm, it can also be placed on the right one. However 
all measurements should be made using the same arm.
