Why are my blood pressure readings dierent than at my doctor’s
oce?
Blood pressure is a variable body parameter that uctuates throughout
the day. To compare your pressure levels, you should perform a daily
measurement under comparable situations. Make sure that you feel
relaxed and are not disturbed by your environment. In addition, check for
proper cu t, tightness, and artery alignment. If you still need assistance,
call 1-800-568-4147.
Higher readings: Many experience what is called “White Coat
Hypertension” when measured by a doctor. White Coat Hypertension
refers to blood pressure that rises above its usual level when measured in
a clinical setting, such as a doctor’s oce (versus at home). It is named for
the typical white coat uniform worn by health care providers.

Always measure using the same arm, at the same time of day.
Avoid eating, tobacco or any form of exertion before you take
your measurement.
Make sure your bladder is empty.
A full bladder can increase systolic pressure by 10-15 mmHg.
Ensure clothing does not interfere with the cu.
A cu over clothing can raise systolic pressure by 40 mmHg.
Sit quietly at a table with both feet at on the oor, avoiding
movement and talking during a measurement.
Talking can raise systolic pressure by 10-15 mmHg.

Make sure the cu
tube is securely
connected to the
monitor.
Tighten the cu until
it is snug against your
arm, but not too tight.
You should be able to
t 2 ngers between
cu and arm.
Sit and rest for 5 minutes
prior to measurement.
Relax your arm and push
the start button.
Slide your arm
through the cu until
the bottom edge is
about ½" above your
elbow. Align artery
mark and tubing to
brachial artery (inner
arm). Cu ts most
biceps 8.7" – 18.1".
What do my blood pressure numbers mean?
Blood pressure is determined by the circulatory center in the brain and is
made up of two numbers:
Systolic (the rst number): shows how much pressure the blood is exerting
against the artery walls as the heart contracts (pumps).
Diastolic (the second number): shows how much pressure the blood is
exerting against the artery walls while the heart rests (between beats). In
addition to blood pressure, its important to monitor the pulse, or the
number of times a heart beats in a minute.

TIP: If you still feel your results are inaccurate, there is no need to
return the unit. Instead, call 1-800-568-4147 for assistance.
My blood pressure varies. How do I know what my true blood
pressure is?
Just as a time lapse video tells more than a snapshot, the average of
several measurements, obtained over several days under similar
conditions, is the best way to accurately determine your blood pressure.
It’s vital to measure your pressure consistently and regularly to better
manage your health. See chart below for daily variation.
