You will not need to acquire an additional stethoscope. Comfortable cuff Manual Blood Pressure Cuff by Paramed has a comfortable cuff 42 cm long. This means that people of any stature can measure pressure without problems. The cuff is designed for daily use and multiple measurements. Standard D-Ring Cuff A D-ring cuff is a cuff in which the user passes through one end of the cuff through a metal ring and then attaches it to the arm. Cuff adjustment is easily done using this stainless steel ring. Clip for a cuff The manometer has a special fastening tool so that you can attach it in a place that's comfortable for you. It's convenient for the readout to be at eye level so that you can carefully monitor the pressure gauge. How to use a sphygmomanometer correctly Put the cuff Put the cuff on your left arm 2-3 cm (~1 inch) above your elbow. Cuff's tubes should run along the center of your arm. Wrap the cuff around your arm so that you can fit one finger between the cuff and your arm, and attach it with Velcro. Place the stethoscope Put the stethoscope on. Make sure that the earpieces are facing forward. If you put them in backwards, you won’t be able to hear anything. Place the head on your humeral artery a bit above the elbow joint facing the body where the artery usually runs. You can secure the stethoscope using the cuff. Pump air Quickly fill the cuff with air until it reaches your typical upper pressure reading with an additional 30 mmHg. Then, stop pumping in air. Start letting air out of the cuff so that the manometer's arrow descends 2-3 marks per second. Listen to Korotkoff sounds Note the pressure when you first hear your heartbeat. This is the upper, or systolic, pressure number. Note the pressure when the sound stops. This is the lower, or diastolic, pressure number. We recommend writing down your measurements, which will help you and your doctor analyze your health. Factors that may affect the real values of the arterial blood pressure Cuff is too small Increase in systolic blood pressure to 10–40 mmHg. Cuff used over clothing Clothing can impact a systolic blood pressure from 10 to 50 mmHg. Not resting 3-5 minutes Exercise or eating can affect your systolic blood pressure measurement 10 to 20 mmHg. Arm/Back/Feet Unsupported Diastolic blood pressure measurement may be increased by 4 to 8 mmHg. Talking Systolic blood pressure measurement may increase 10 to 15mmHg.

I bought this pressure cuff and stethoscope to use in my nursing assistant class in which we we required to measure blood pressure accurate to +/- 10 mmHg of our instructor's measurement, and they held up very nicely. They were comparable in accuracy to a 40 dollar combo that the class was selling, which pleasantly surprised me. Here are some pros and cons that I encountered while using them.PROS:1. Like I said, the value. These will have no problem with accuracy or sound. I was able to clearly make out the systolic and diastolic sounds.2. The cuff is slightly more comfortable to put onto someone and is easier to get a tight fit in comparison to other cuffs.CONS:1. The only major downside that I encountered was the flimsy air valve. It is really hard to have precise control over how much air was being let out because of how flimsy the knob was. Even a slight turn would sometimes release air too fast to measure, forcing me to redo the measurement.In conclusion, I believe that this cuff and stethoscope combination is a great starting kit and is comparable in value to kits way pricier than the low price that Paramed charges.
