Other Tips for correct pressure intake: It is important to take it correctly to get accurate values. Sit in the right position in a chair and put your arms on the table. If the wrist is not at heart level, a correct value will not be obtained. Relax your shoulders and arm, and take it in a natural posture. It is important to take at home and write down the obtained values, every day at the same time; so, you can figure out the trend of your pressure. Your doctor will diagnose the results, to advise you on your health care.As the taking posture and thickness of the blood vessels are different in the socket on the wrist, the value may vary slightly with respect to the intake in the arm. Test sampling is applied to the ENAC-accredited Corysan calibration laboratory prior to sale for these devices.
