BP Cuffs
by Cathy Parkes December 04, 2019 Updated: December 29, 2021

Blood pressure cuffs: If the cuff is too large, you will get a falsely low reading. If the cuff is too small, you will get a falsely high reading.
Cuff width should be 40% of arm circumference. Bladder should surround 80% of arm circumference.
