Can this measure BP accurately if the arm is not large, but is either normal size or thin..?

From the product description: "Cuffs that are too small or too large will result in inaccurate readings." For it to be accurate, it must fit snugly, but not tight. If too tight it can give high readings and if too loose it can give low readings.

It's a single cuff. If you look at the photo of the unit and the cuff (product photo) it shows the main cuff cylinder which measures 13". I used a plastic tape measure used in sewing to take this measurement. My arm is 12" at the bicep when relaxed and I need to tighten it around my upper arm just a bit when taking a reading. There is an extension flap with velcro that is attached and can probably accommodate an arm diameter up to 19" comfortably-possibly even 20". I will say this. I considered getting a cheaper, handpump bulb type but I have had this for a few days and it is great. Really professional and worth the Amazon price. It's a single cuff.

Just called and spoke with A&D makers of the Life Source 853 and the rep said it is designed for Medium and Large cuffs only. That if I needed a Small cuff I would need a different blood pressure monitor. I was hoping it took a Small. Darn, looks like I'm purchasing a new blood pressure monitor that takes a small cuff.

I purchased the Omron 785 and it is very accurate. Omron BP785 10 Series Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor, Black/white

My daughter's BP was very high so we sent her this monitor. So far, she has told me it is holding pretty steady each time she uses the monitor. Other than what she tells me, I cannot tell you how accurate it is....I will know more when I speak with my daughter again. My husband did a lot of checking on BP monitors and found this one to be a good one at a good price. Good luck......

The cuff measures at 13" (a rigid portion) but it does have an extra velcro padded portion that extends beyond that for a total of between 19-20". I will point out that I am not sure if that means it will read everything properly when taking BP readings. I would advise to contact the company directly and see if they can verify whether this will work at that extended size. If so, I would buy it as it has been very reliable. Hope this helps.

You could if you have used the standard cuff & scope before. You have to listen via scope to get an acuurate reading of your blood pressure. There are accurate digital machines, check w your doctor.

Yes. Took BP at the doctor then had my wrist BP monitor with me and it was the same.

Hello I love my Ozeri BP4M, the cuff is just right for my arms. However my arms is small. If you have a big arm, you would need a bigger cuff

From their website: "The Withings Blood Pressure Monitor fits all arm circumferences; from 22 to 42 cm. Measurements won't be reliable beyond this."

The arm cuff secures with Velcro to fit a range of sizes for an average adult arm. The actual guage is not adjustable, that I know of, but doubt you'd want to mess with it anyway. Hope that helps!

First of all it is easier to use than a arm monitor. I never could get the arm monitor adjusted correctly on my upper arm. Also it is known, you BP is not always the same in both arms. Wrist Blood one says to put on right wrist, based on the readings and if you didn't put it on right, you will definitely get a weird reading or it won't take at all, it will say there is an error. Also you should take BP reading right after you have eaten or drank something cold, suppose to wait at least 1/2? or 1 hour? before taking BP reading. All my readings seem to be about what the Dr. had recorded in his office, so I figured I was doing it right.

may not be as exact as u would like but it is accurate enough to help monitor blood pressure problems. If used as directed you get a good picture of blood pressure and heart rate

I got just the opposite results. Mine were low. I think we can assume this cuff does not work properly. My doctor says that in general wrist cuffs are not reliable. She wants me to buy an upper arm cuff.

medium cuff is for arm size 9.5" to 14.2" which fits most people. If you have a smaller arm size then order the smallcuff, a larger arm size would require the large size cuff. Incidentally I am very pleased with this unit, it calibrates sameas my doctor's readings taken in his office.

This is a regular size cuff for a regular sized adult. To get an accurate blood pressure on a large adult, you will need to order an extra large cuff. A regular sized cuff will not give accurate readings on a really large arm. Proper fit is important for an accurate reading. Suggest you look on another site if there are none on Amazon. Make sure that it comes with a guage included, unless you already have one, and a stethoscope.

A larger arm cuff is available. Call Blipcare customer service. They provided mine at no charge.
