Suitable for routine examinations, ongoing patient monitoring, and diagnostic evaluations, it supports reliable blood pressure measurement across a range of clinical scenarios.
Usage Guidelines
Place the cuff snugly on the patients upper arm, aligning the artery marker with the brachial artery. Ensure the cuff fits securely without excessive tightness. Connect the 2 tubes to the inflation bulb and gauge. Inflate to the recommended pressure while listening with a stethoscope placed over the brachial artery, then deflate gradually to measure systolic and diastolic values. Clean the cuff exterior with a mild disinfectant after each use. Do not immerse the bladder in liquids or autoclave.
