Before using WatchBP Office
Selecting the correct cuff
Two different cuff sizes are provided with the
WatchBP Office: Medium and Large. Select the cuff
size that best matches the circumference of the
patient’s upper arm.
Fitting the cuff properly
1) Place the cuff over the left (right) upper arm so
that the air tube and artery mark arrow point
toward the lower arm.
2) Lay the cuff on the arm. Make sure that the lower
edge of the cuff lies approximately ¾” to 1”(2 to
3cm) above the elbow.
Connect the cuff to the device by inserting the cuff
connector into the cuff connector socket.

3) Wrap and tighten the cuff around the arm.
4) Leave a little free space between the arm and
the cuff. The patient should be able to fit 2 fingers
between the arm and the cuff. Clothing must not
restrict the arm. Remove all clothing covering or
constricting the measurement arm.
5) Cuffs that do not fit properly can result in
incorrect blood pressure measurements. Use a
different size cuff if the range Index at the end of
the cuff does not fall into the range specified by
the range stripes.
6) Apply the same steps to the other arm if a double
arm measurement is required.
* The range index of cuff should
be fallen into this range.
