Blood pressure measurement
Blood pressure measurement
The blood pressure should be measured with the arm supported and the cubital fossa at the level of the heart. The stethoscope bell is placed over the brachial artery pulse below the bottom edge of the cuff, which should be about 2 cm above the cubital fossa.
