Make sure to take proper precautions before measuring blood pressure. 

1. Avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, exercising, and bathing for 30 minutes prior to taking a measurement. Rest for at least 20 minutes prior to taking the measurement.

2. Stress raises blood pressure. Do not measure during stressful times.

3. Remove tight-fitting thick clothing from your arm.

4. Sit on a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Keep your cuff at the same level as your heart.

5. Remain still and avoid talking.

7. Try to measure your blood pressure at about the same time each day for consistency.
