Applying the Pressure Cuff
Step 1- Connect the air plug of the tubing to the air jack at the
side of the monitor. (Fig.24)
Step 2- Assemble the cuff as Figure 25. The
smooth cloth is on the inside of the cuff loop and
the metal D-ring will not touch your skin.
Step 3- Hold your left arm in front of you with your
palm facing up. Slide the cuff onto your left arm,
above your elbow. The red line on the edge of the
cuff should be approximately 0.8 to 1.2 inch (2 cm
to 3 cm) above your elbow. Align the tubing over
the main arteries at the inside of your arm. (Fig. 26)
Step 4- When the cuff is positioned correctly, pull the end of the cuff to tighten
the cuff snugly around your upper arm. You should be able to fit your index
finger between the cuff and your arm.
Step 5- Press the hook material firmly against the pile material. The top and
bottom edges of the cuff should be tightened evenly around your upper arm.
