Blood pressure is measured from the upper area of one of 
the forelimbs; hence, it is necessary for the cuff to fit your 
upper arm perfectly. In case of the cuff not fitting your arm, 
the readings the monitor shows may be inaccurate. As per 
the guidelines provided by various American medical 
colleges, in 2017, the appropriate cuff sizes are:
 Adult Small: Circumference of the 
arm from 22-26 cm
 Adult Average: Circumference of 
the arm from 27-34 cm
Cuff Size  Adult Large: Circumference of the 
arm from 35-44 cm
Accuracy check
You can look for the stores or sites for 
buying medical equipment online, and you 
can quickly get your hands on a monitor. 
However, it is better to match the 
equipment with that of your physicians or 
doctors. You have to make regular 
accuracy checks after two or three years 
anyway as that’s the average life of a blood 
pressure measuring device for homes.
Avoid 
Smart Apps
There is a wide array of apps available on the 
internet as well as your mobile phone app store 
which claims to be tracking and providing 
readings of blood pressure. However, Dr. Laffin 
has dismissed such claims, and the fact has been 
made widely known that these apps show false 
readings as they often read the waves in your 
finger artery. Misleading information can be 
devastating. Hence it is suggested to be kept 
away from.
Triple 
Measurement
Many blood pressure measuring 
devices have a triple 
measurement feature. They take 
readings at intervals of half a 
minute to one full minute two 
times before taking the final 
measurement after an interval of 
the same time frame. This 
increases the chances of an 
accurate reading as the final 
reading comes as an average of 
all three readings. Thus, the 
probability of the most accurate 
reading is maximized.
Choose Arm Cuffs 
Over Wrist Cuffs
If you are older than 50 years, it is highly 
recommended that you opt for arm cuffs 
instead of wrist cuffs. Apart from that, 
picking a fully automatic machine over a 
semi-automatic one that requires a 
stethoscope is a better option. You can 
easily sort it out by the name brachial blood 
pressure monitor. However, if you are 
younger than 50 years, you can choose the 
wrist cuffs also.
