What it’s for
A doctor asked about blood pressure will want numbers, not a feeling, and an upper-arm cuff is the format most home readings are validated in. Some wrist cuffs are validated too; check the validation list before buying one.
What to check in the listing
Sit for five minutes first, feet flat, arm resting at heart height, and take two readings a minute apart in the morning before coffee. Measure your upper arm: the standard cuff fits 22–42 cm and the wide one goes bigger. Write the numbers down or use the app; a single high reading means nothing, a week of them means something worth showing someone. Before buying, check the model is on a validation list (in the US, the validatebp.org register).
