Tips for a correct pressure shot:

It is important to make the shot correctly to obtain exact values.

Sit in the right position in a chair and put your arms on the table. If the wrist is not at the height of the heart, you will not get a correct value. Relax your shoulders and arm, and take it in a natural posture.

It is important to make the shot at home and score the values obtained, every day at the same time; thus, you can find out the trend of your pressure. Your doctor will diagnose the results, to advise you about your health care.

Since the taking posture and the thickness of the blood vessels are different in the take on the wrist, the value may vary slightly from the take on the arm.
