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.

There are instructions to measure the forearm 4 inches fron the elbow and then there is a chart to reference. They seem to be accurate.

I don't know the exact answer except to say it is a Velcro strap that should fit the wrist of any human wrist. The reason I tried this one was for that very reason. Most of the home version BP Monitors fit regular sized arms but not large arms like mine. This works fine for me and I can't imagine it not working for anyone else.

Measure just below elbow point with arm straight, error on smaller size if close

For the most accurate measurements we recommend you rest your elbows on a table, position your arm so that the pressure cuff is at the same height as your heart, then position your palm upward.

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.

It wraps around, kind of like the sleeve they use to measure blood pressure. It's 18" long, about half of it is Velcro, so it fits pretty much any size. Fits my arm fine and I am pretty skinny.

NO........... My average BP readings (130/80) were within two points of my doctor's readings (132/81). Make sure you have sat a while before you take your reading. Also make sure your legs aren't crossed when taking BP.

Absolutely YES. Ive had both my shoulders replaced and have allot of trouble with my hands and this is so easy to use. Very accurate as I tool it with me to my doctors office to compare with their BP cuff reading. This one is very accurate. So easy to use.

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.

That cuff won't give an accurate reading on a large arm. It's too small. You need to do a little research to find one that will work.

It is by far the most accurate digital electronic bp monitors I have used. Here's a detailed review that might help you out: http://tinyurl.com/kl39fs2

Shirley, this blood pressure cuff is small and will fit kids, it will not fit and average persons arm. When you log into Amazon put your model of the unit in Amazon will show you all the blood pressure cuff's that work with your machine. Hope this helps Thanks John

Yes, my wife was very frail and had lost a lot of weight. It is a lot bigger than I had expected, and will only work well on one arm if a person needs to have blood pressure taken while lieing down because of the monitor screen which needs to fold down.

Not sure. I have the BP4M, it is pretty accurate, + or - within 5 points of a manual BP. I hope that helps a little.

I couldn't confirm. Returned it anyway because cuff was too big ... couldn't align it without it spinning around my arm. The few times I managed (with a 2nd person helping - which makes it almost useless anyway) the reading was wildly different (> 20 points higher for both systolic&diastolic;) than on my older machine. Didn't know which machine to believe ... have a gut feeling the older machine was more accurate.
