Why is it important that edge of the cuff is above the antecubital space

Anika [276]

Answer:

It is important that the edge of the cuff is above the antecubital space in order to fasten it evenly and snugly.

Explanation:

The question above is related to "getting the blood pressure of a person accurately."

After preparing the patient, you have to apply the cuff to the patient at the level of his heart. Make sure that the cuff is completely deflated. The cuff's "inflatable bladder" should be placed where the brachial artery is and its lower edge should be placed above the "antecubital space." This can secure the cuff in place. The gauge should then be adjusted, so you can read it well.
