Suggestions Before Measuring 
Blood Pressure
1.
Avoid eating, smoking and exercising for at least
30 minutes before taking measurement. Also rest
for at least 10 to 15 minutes before taking a reading.
2.
Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking
measurements during stressful times.
3.
The cuff can be applied to your left 
or right wrist.
4.  Measurements should be taken in a quiet place 
and you should be in a relaxed, seated position. 
5.
Remain still and do not talk during 
the measurements. 
6.
Keep a record of you blood pressure and pulse for you doctor.
Remember, a single measurement does not provide an accurate indication 
of your true blood pressure. You need to take and record several readings 
over a period of time. Try to measure your blood pressure at the same 
time each day for consistency.
7.
Wait 2-3 minutes between measurements. Waiting allows the engorged blood
vessels to return to normal. You may require more rest time between readings
depending on your individual physiological characteristics.
