How does it work?

This is a very routine test, it’s very fast and painless. This is how it works:
-
First, one of our specialists will wrap an inflatable cuff around your arm.

This cuff will inflate and gently tighten your arm.

With the help of a gauge, we will measure the pressure in your blood vessels.
-
Then the air will be let out off the cuff while our specialists are listening to your pulse with a stethoscope and monitoring the gauge.
