How to use the sphygmomanometer to correct the new electronic sphygmomanometer

At the time of the physical examination, there is a routine examination that measures blood pressure, so everyone should be familiar with the sphygmomanometer. In addition to being used in clinics and hospitals, many sphygmomanometers are now equipped with home sphygmomanometers. But for the use of sphygmomanometer, many people are still not very well understood. Today we will teach you how to use it correctly.

How to use the sphygmomanometer correctly

First, the preparation work before the measurement

1. Before taking a measurement, sit for 10 minutes and relax. (This is very important. If it is measured in an emotional ups and downs, it is easy to see the blood pressure fluctuations measured twice before and after it is too large).

2. Do not rub urine during measurement, do not exercise, smoke, etc. before measurement.

3. The arm band should be in contact with the skin as much as possible. If it is difficult to achieve, it can be measured by wearing a relatively thin clothes. It is not allowed to wear thick clothes such as sweaters for measurement, which will affect the blood pressure value.

4. Connect the Philippine sphygmomanometer body and armband and install the battery (you can also use the power supply).

Second, start measuring

1. Remove the clothing at the arm or wear only thin underwear, put the arm band into the left upper arm, and point the hose downward toward the arm, ensuring that the bottom of the arm band is 2 to 75px from the elbow joint (about two finger width), arm Relax, open your palms, don't make a fist.

2. The armband can be worn comfortably. The tightness can be placed in the two fingers during the period, and the position of the hose is adjusted to the middle of the arm.

3. When measuring blood pressure, the body is sitting straight, the arm is flat on the table, the palm is up, and the arm band is at the same level as the heart.

Blood pressure measurement can be performed by pressing the switch key, the electronic sphygmomanometer will automatically pressurize, one button operation, the measured blood pressure value is measured, and the voice is broadcasted.

Third, the average blood pressure value

To get a more accurate value, press the “-/+” key to display the average of the last three measurements while the Phillips sphygmomanometer is off.

Why should blood pressure be averaged? Blood pressure is constantly fluctuating, and blood pressure at a certain time cannot represent the overall blood pressure level. It is recommended to take the average of multiple measurements as a reference for blood pressure levels.

Fourth, data records

The blood pressure data record is very important. When the Phillips sphygmomanometer is off, press “-/+” to display the previous 90 measurements.

Why should we record the daily blood pressure value? The blood pressure of the human body changes during the day, not a constant. The normal person's daily high pressure changes between 20-40mmHG, and the low pressure changes between 10-20mmHG, even at night. Fluctuations of 5-10mmHG (except objective factors such as exercise, mood swings, smoking and drinking, etc.), so the daily data of blood pressure can provide a more accurate basis for doctors' diagnosis.

Precautions:

What are the factors that influence the blood pressure measurement value and why is the measured blood pressure inaccurate?

1. It is important to fully relax before measurement. Measurements in a state of intense excitement can cause excessive fluctuations in blood pressure before and after.

2. Must choose a quality-assured electronic sphygmomanometer, usually OMRON, Philipsco, Mike.

3. The height of the arm band must be consistent with the height of the heart. If the cuff position is too high, the measured blood pressure value will be low; if the cuff position is too low, the measured blood pressure value will be high.

Measuring blood pressure seems like a very simple matter. But for the use of sphygmomanometers, we still have to master the correct method. After all, blood pressure can reflect the real situation of our body. The above is the usage method introduced by everyone. I don't know how much you have mastered. The new electronic blood pressure monitor will be launched every year. Have you noticed it?
