How to check your blood pressure
- Sit comfortably in a chair with your back supported. Relax for three to five minutes.
- Put your feet flat on the floor. Lay your left arm flat on the table, elevated to heart level, with your palm facing up.
- Loosen the monitor and slide your bare upper arm into the opening. The tube should be positioned against your inner arm.
- Fasten the monitor tight enough, so you can still slide two fingers underneath it, between the monitor and your upper arm.
- Select a simple measurement with a short button press or a triple measurement with a long press. Press the button again to start the measurement. Do not talk during or between measurements.
- Sit still as the monitor inflates and deflates around your upper arm.
- Wait for the blood pressure measurement to complete. When the measurement is complete, the monitor deflates automatically.
- Your systolic and diastolic blood pressure will appear on the tube.
- For the most accurate reading, take three measurements at one-minute intervals. You can achieve this with a long hold on the button.
- Once the reading appears on the device, it should transfer to the One Drop app within a few minutes.
You can also perform a triple measurement when you press down the circular button for 2-3 seconds. The display will change to BPx3.
Check your blood pressure twice daily: once in the morning and again right before bed. Do not smoke, drink, or exercise within 30 minutes of checking your blood pressure. Use the restroom before checking.
