Why are the readings different from those of other blood pressure monitors?

Readings may vary depending on your measuring position, the timing of the measurement, how the cuff is wrapped, and other factors. When using a wrist-type monitor, measure with your wrist at the same height as your heart; when using an upper-arm monitor, position the cuff at the same height as your heart. In addition, wrist-type and upper-arm monitors measure at different sites and the blood vessels vary in thickness, so readings may differ from person to person. Measure under the same conditions as much as possible and compare the readings.
