how to mesure blood pressure in the right way?
I recently bought a new-brand high-quality pressure-measuring device, but not able to measure accurately with it despite the fact that I do all the requirements in instructions.
The problem is that results can differ by more than 10 points, depending on tightlyness of tension of the belt and its position.
