FAQs
How do I determine which blood pressure cuff size to use for the patient?
According to Livestrong, in order to gain an accurate reading, blood pressure cuffs should be the correct size for the patient’s arm. A blood pressure cuff that is too small could give an inaccurately high reading, or a cuff that is too big, could give a reading that’s too low.
For each of our IEM, GE Carescape,and SunTech blood pressure cuffs, we list the suitable arm circumference to use them on.
For example, the IEM Mobil-O-Graph Blood Pressure Cuff (Extra Small) is designed to fit arm circumferences between 14 - 20 cm. The GE Carescape V100 DuraCuf Blood Pressure Cuff with Dinaclick Connector - Adult is suitable for arm size 23cm - 33cm.
Why are disposable sleeves for blood pressure cuffs necessary?
Disposable blood pressure cuffs reduce the risk of infection. The cuffs are for one-use only and provide the same level of comfort and accuracy as regular blood pressure cuffs but can be disposed of when the session with each patient has ended. This helps to reduce the risk of cross-infection from contaminated accessories.
