- Checking your blood pressure at home can be difficult. First, you have to choose the right machine, and then there is a long list of things you have to do to get an accurate reading. In this video, we explore how to take a blood pressure reading at home - accurately and easily!
1) Things not to do before checking your blood pressure:
No smoking
No Caffeine
No eating
No exercise
No watching Manchester United lose another football match (optional)
2) Sitting position is key for blood pressure. Sit upright on a chair and arm slightly bent
resting on a table. Feet flat on the ground.
3) Place the cuff on your arm using the 'Rule of two fingers' - two fingers above elbow, and tight enough to slip two fingers between the cuff and your upper arm.
4) Press the On button then start - and await as the machine inflates and deflates.
5) Write your blood pressure down, take 3 readings and work out the average.
