Two-step blood pressure technique<\/strong><\/h2>
  1. Palpate the radial or brachial artery, inflate the blood pressure cuff until the pulse is no longer felt, and then continue to inflate 20\u201330 mm Hg more:  this is the maximum pressure inflation.<\/li>
  2. Deflate the cuff quickly.<\/li>
  3. Now, you can start blood pressure so place the bell of the cleansed stethoscope over the brachial artery using a light touch and complete seal.<\/li>
  4. Inflate the cuff to the maximum pressure inflation number.<\/li>
  5. Open the valve slightly.<\/li>
  6. Deflate the cuff slowly and evenly at about 2 mm Hg per second.<\/li>
  7. Note the points at which you hear the first appearance of Korotkoff sound (systolic blood pressure), and the last Korotkoff sound before it goes silent (diastolic blood pressure).<\/li><\/ol>
