Hill-Rom Home Blood Pressure Monitors Reference guide

  • Hello! I have reviewed the user manual for Welch Allyn Blood Pressure Monitor BP, and I'm ready to assist you with any questions you might have about this device. The document includes details on how to take an accurate blood pressure reading, how to place the cuff correctly, set up the device and pair it with a smartphone.
  • Where should the blood pressure cuff be placed?
    How far above the bend in my arm should the cuff be?
    How do I start a blood pressure measurement?
    How can I stop the cuff inflation during the measurement?
Place the cu over your
bare upper arm so that
the blood pressure tube
runs down the middle
of your forearm.
Confirm that the bottom
edge of the cu is 2 finger
widths (about 1 inch) above
the bend in your arm.
Sit comfortably in a chair
that supports your back.
Place feet flat on the floor.
Keep legs uncrossed.
Support your arm on a
flat surface, and ensure
the cu is level with your
heart (right atrium).
Rest for 5 minutes after sitting down and
positioning the blood pressure cu.
Press to begin the blood pressure
measurement.
