7. Fitting the appliance
Use the appliance only on persons whose wrist 'fits'
the pressure sleeve. The sleeve must be attached
lightly and closed firmly with the Velcro fastener.
The sleeve is appropriate to a wrist perimeter
of 135m-195mm.
If ...
-
the wrist is too thin, it may not be possible to pump
up the pressure sleeve sufficiently, and in this case
an exact measurement is not possible.
-
the wrist is too thick, it may not be possible to fasten
the pressure sleeve firmly enough and, in this case
also, it is not possible to obtain an exact
measurement.
ƽ Caution: Do not use the appliance if you have any
injuries or lesions to the wrist. These could be aggrava-
ted by pressure when the sleeve is pumped up.
A measurement of blood pressure can only be meaning-
ful if the blood circulation has settled. You should take a
seat and relax for 3 - 5 minutes before taking a
measurement.
