Comment on What is the best take your blood pressure to get the most accurate results?

I’m a GP, here’s my opinion

Can’t have eaten/drank anything for the last half hour

Feet flat on the floor

Lying down but sitting up

Back against the chair

Don’t cross your legs/ankles

Only use your left arm

Hand facing upward/downward

Keep your arm down/raised

Most important is be relaxed, sit still, don’t move your arm, of you get a high reading calm yourself and take it once more then leave it.
