Using the
correct cuff size is important for an
accurate reading.
A cuff that is too large will produce a
reading that is lower than the correct blood
pressure; a cuff that is too small gives a
measurement that is higher. With your arm
hanging at the side of your body, measure
the circumference of your upper arm at the
midpoint between shoulder and elbow.
