Steps for attaching the cuff and recorder
Step 1 Make a circle where the end of the cuff is passed through the ring.
Step 2 Search for the brachial artery using palpation.
Step 3 Attach the cuff directly against the skin so that the artery position mark is
directly over the brachial artery and the lower edge of the cuff is placed one
inch above the inside of the elbow.
Step 4 Wrap the cuff so that the ring is within the slide range, evenly and tight
enough not to slip down but loose enough to insert two fingers. (If the ring
is not within the slide range, you need a proper cuff.)
Step 5 Position the air hose over the shoulder and affix it on the patient using the clip.
Step 6 Assemble the belt and carrying case.
Step 7 Position the belt so that the carrying case is on the right (left) side of the patient,
when a patient attaches the left (right) arm cuff.
Step 8 Connect the air hose plug to the air socket.
Step 9 Place the recorder into the carrying case.
Caution
Do not disturb the cuff or air hose
during the measurement because
the recorder measures small
pressure variations.
