Although most nursing students and nurses will rely on machines to report blood pressure readings, they should know how to take a manual blood pressure. This tutorial provides an example of taking a blood pressure in the arm.
In addition, there are a few tips and techniques you'll want to use. You want to place the cuff so that the arrow lines up on the arm.

Thank you so much for this video I am currently in training to be a medical administration technician and this video has helped me by far💙
Thank you for having a nice personality which makes it fun to watch! Thank you Ben, For being such a good sport! May you two have many wonderful years together.
These videos are amazing.
Hello!!! I watched your video on how to take blood pressure for an interview. Today I had to give a mock teaching on how to take blood pressure. Watching your video, and taking ideas from it helped me get the job!!!!! I just want to give thanks to you for that assist!!!
😊
How adorable are you two!!! You can tell your husband is so proud of you!! Thank you for your videos!!
Take care u guys :)
I’m in the polysomnography program at my school and my teacher spent literally less than 5 minutes on how to take blood pressure and told us it isn’t rocket science. We are all first semester students and our check off is soon, so I thank you for actually taking the time to teach this.
You have just explained this so much better than my Medical teacher!!!! Thank you so much for taking time and making a video about one step and two step Blood pressure, maybe now I will get this right!
+Sadie Richards Wow, thank you so much, Sadie! I'm glad I could help you understand it better. Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a comment :) I appreciate your kind comment so much!
completely agree!!! so much better understanding listening to your videos. thank you.
I’m in nursing school and my instructors recommend you all the time. I was struggling with hearing where the diastolic is so I started looking up different videos to understand the systolic sound. I switched my ear tips to a smaller size as well, but no matter what I did I couldn’t get the correct BP. I found this video yesterday before my vital signs assessment and like how you broke down both of the sounds and how to tell them apart. During my assessment I said 140/92 and the correct BP was 140/90! Got it within the 2 point range. Thank you for all that you do!
SO grateful for this video, Nurse Sarah! I'm teaching vital signs to my nursing and allied health students via distance learning (video classroom) and it's SO challenging to teach without the hands on aspect. This is so helpful!
I would be so lost without you in nursing school!!! You help me SO MUCH! Thank you so much for all of your videos💜🙏🏼
Awesome video! I'm an EMT student and we briefly practiced in class. Most of my classmates already knew how to do manual bp and they explained it but I didn't get it. I feel a lot more confident now and can't wait to practice this skill more!
Same dude....
Very well made video,good info👍
same here!
I am currently a Student in Enrolled Nursing and have just been introduced to taking blood pressure. It's been quite complicating using the equipment and measuring BP, but after watching this video it has helped me so much.Thank you from Australia!!
Yay! I'm so glad I could help you understand it. I agree it is quite complicating using the equipment and trying to listen all at the same time.....we need more hands lol. It is very awesome you're from Australia......beautiful country :)
Emily Wills measuring blood pressure can be a nightmare. I've had the cuff inflate off the patient.
You did an amazing job of clearly explaining the process. If you're not already an instructor, you should be one!
Was never sure how slowly you need to release the air, so thank you! Also, thank you for reminding people to tell their patients what their blood pressure readings are. I always tell people if it’s high, low, or good and exactly what their number is. It’s important for everyone to know what their “normal” blood pressure is.
The way your hubby is looking at you is like he is saying “all of me love all of you😍”
Great instructional video.
i'm a freshman nursing student, thanks for this!
Thank you so much for this video!! Yesterday we started practicing blood pressure in our clinical skills (very first skill we have to learn) and I felt like I was the only person who didn’t get it. I feel a lot better and more prepared about it now!!
Thank you so much, really helpful, it gave me a full heads up so I can take my mom's blood pressure manually even though I have the Color Doctor blood pressure monitor, but I love to use the conventional manual way. I even practice it on myself. Great video.
Hi hello I’m so happy all the vedio that you make is so helpful specially that I’m taking care giver course and it help a lot because every time we have practical exam thanks a lot
Your positivity makes the information stick in my head so clearly, great video
Thankyou, I just started doing blood pressure in my CNA class and am having truble getting BP reading but watching your video really helped me understand a whole lot on how to get manual BP and I hope I can finally get it!! Thanks! Amazing video!!
I just subscribed to RegisteredNurseRN, I'm a first year student in SA and tomorrow during our clinical skills, we are going to practice Blood Pressure. I was so nervous, but after watching this video I'm sure tomorrow will be fine Thank you so much Sara ❤❤
Thank you so much for the comment and for subscribing! I REALLY appreciate it! I hope your clinicals went well.
whiedaad fortuin I'm a first year as well, this Friday we practice our skill and I wanted to already have an idea going in. Her videos are so helpful and amazing
Wonderful Video !!!!!!!!!!!!!!×
Bp
As a MD student I find this demo to be very informative. Simple and efficient. Great work!
Amazing video, very informative. I'm in my first semester of nursing school and we will be practicing this skill in next weeks class. Thank you!
just started learning about taking BP and I'm so happy i watched your video i feel more confident thank you!!
After 3 years, I'm going back to nursing and you're a great teacher/lecture! Very clear and concise informations..thank you for helping me out!👍
+Siti Humairah Awesome! I wish you the best re-entering nursing. I'm sure you will do great! Thank you very much for your kind words :) I appreciate them very much!
Tomorrow are my clinical check offs and manual blood pressure is on the list, thanks for sharing😍😍😍
Nurse in training right now having a hard time finding the brachial artery on my friends and family. I'm unsure if I'm palpating incorrectly but I can't practice blood pressure if I can't find the artery! Then, I watched your video and I was able to locate it every time when you gave the note it's always on the inside of the elbow! Thanks so much!
I suck at finding the brachial artery and I finally found it and got so happy lol
Your videos are amazing. I’m an aspiring nurse and I start my pre reqs this fall. You make learning nursing so much more worthwhile and exciting!
I just want to say that I appreciate this video so much. Thank you for explaining everything so thoroughly. I just had lecture on this and my teacher wasn't really explaining it all the way through. I was so lost and had no idea what I was doing but, this video made everything so much easier. Thank you so much!
Awesome video. I get tested tomorrow for Vital Sign competencies for becoming a Medical Assistant. I knew your visual teaching was just what I would need- I was struggling trying to locate the brachial artery! Liked how you gave an anatomy pointer too on how this artery becomes the radial and ulnar artery later. My Mother was a Virginian. I am from Wisconsin. I love a Southern accent. Reminds me of my Mom and my Southern kin. Hush puppies!!! You are doing good, important work. Peace
Make sure you always ask your patient which arm to use, but not Ben. I’m gonna use his left arm because he’s my husband and because I said so. 😂
🤒🤕🤢🤮🤧🥵😷🤯
Hi there! Thank you for this awesome video!! Taking general ed classes to apply for the nursing program but I love watching your videos and learning something new every time! Blood pressure was quickly explained in our medical terminology class last semester but your in depth explanation is great!! Makes it very easy to comprehend. Keep up the good work!! :)
You're most welcome, Norma :) I'm so happy the video helped you! Thank you for watching it and for your kind words! I hope my channel can be a resource for you throughout general ed classes and especially when you enter the nursing program!
This video really helped break everything down about taking manual blood pressure, and as an OT student this is something that I’m struggling to learn. Thanks for all the tips!
I appreciate this video and excited about your channel! I worked as a medical assistant 18 years ago, but put all that on hold to raise kids. I am ready to jump back in but need some brushing up on a few things. I know you have an updated video on how to take bp, but this one was a little more "dumbed down" and helped more. Thank you
I’m in school to become a MAA and this is so helpful for vitals, thank you!
thank you for this! I looked like an idiot in my APII college class when doing bp readings on my classmates. I got home and found your video and have successfully figured it out. Thank you so much for your clear and concise instructions! My professor's instructions were very rushed like this was something we should have already known how to do (which might have been the case). Feeling much more confident now :D
I just started nursing school and came upon this channel. It is awesome and so helpful!!! Thank you for all the time and effort put into these videos...so grateful!!!
This video helped so much with my demonstration speech in class. It’s a fantastic guide and very informative compared to how I was originally taught. Thank you!
thank you! I have a test coming up on this and I'm a visual learner. Love the videos. Keep them coming. Although I am not going for RN but for MRI , a medical assisting class is required for my pre-reqs.
You are a LIFESAVER! Now i know how to manually measure blood pressure. I will be studying with you for ALL of my nursing skills for school! Thank you soo much! By the way, you and your husband are soo adorable together and are examples of couple goals the way he is your “pracrice dummy”. You’ve earned a subscriber for life!! God bless you both!!
Hello! I just wanted to respond to you and say THANK YOU for the very kind comment. I'm so glad you know how to obtain a manual blood pressure now. I wish you the best in your nursing journey, and thanks for bringing me a long for the journey :)
Thanks Sara I'm about to perform a test out for skills lab on my first year of traditional RN track and this tutorial is amazing
Awesome demonstrations Sarah.Your explanation is very simple and easy to follow. Thank you very much.👏👏👏👏👏
This was amazing, you truly have a passion for teaching, thank you!!
I've watch other vidoes i did not understand, but yours give me a better understanding. thank you!
Thank you very much, Julia! I'm glad the video helped you!
The demonstration was very helpful. It clearly explained the process of taking blood pressure on a patient. I'm now enable to easily locate the bronchial, and read and work the sphygmomanometer.
You are amazing! I am hoping to be an NA while taking pre-regs for a ABSN program, and your videos are an absolute savior! Thank you!
Your videos are making my first semester in nursing school significantly easier!
Your videos help me so much! I'm in school for my BSN and always watch your videos before my skill evaluations for little tips and tricks. Thank you for explaining it in a way that's understandable to all! 💜
Great explanation! I just practiced on my own arm and was successful! Thank you so much!
I'm taking prereqs for occupational therapy and discovered your channel yesterday. This video is soooo helpful for A&P II! Thank you :)
This was the best tutorial on BP I have seen. You gave a lot of great info and detail. Thank you!
+kerry king Thank you so much, Kerry! I appreciate it so much! Glad you found the video helpful :) Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment.
-Sarah
I'm a CPA and I'm planning on taking medicine next year. This video really helps me get a grasp of Blood pressure.
Great video, I need to take my husband’s manually and this was great information,
Thank you for these vids you explain very clearly.
Thank you so much! If only my instructor explained it this well she literally showed us an example on a student then told us to do it. Not telling us any terms or what to look for and when. I was so stressed out 😩
The fact that I learned all of this in one go. You're such a great educator! 💕
This was very helpful! Thank you so much :) it always feels better with a review before I start clinicals!
I’m currently in nursing school, i had problems hearing the sounds! Watching your videos makes it easier to understand !
Thank you.
OMG!! Thank you, so much for uploading and sharing this video.
You're such a great teacher, and a blessing! Thank you so much
Very helpful! I need to take my blood pressure to check if it is also high at home and not just at the doctor's office. You are a great educator, very clear and helpful. Thankyou! :)
Amazing video. I appreciate how you showed us how to determine the numbers for SBP/DBP from the sphygmomanometer.
I'm about to practice taking blood pressure right now.
Yay! I'm glad I could help! Thank you for watching my videos and for taking the time to watch the video!
OMG THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOO MUCH you pretty much went over everything !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you !!!! I basically fixed my errors with your video. OMG THANK YOU !
Thank you so much for posting this! I am excited to find all these helpful videos as a first-year nursing student.
That was SO helpful! I love that you repeated the same thing a few times and did a demo.
Thank you so much.I'm a new CNA and sometimes we do not get an accurate reading on the patient with the digital machines so we have to do it manually and so I just needed a refresher course Lol..Excellent demonstration.Thank you..Thank you also to your husband..
THANK YOU! This video helped alot. My husband just just got diagnosed with high bp and I wanted to learn how I can monitor this way and you made it easy.
Thank you! We were learning how to take blood pressure today and I found it quite complicated, but this has really helped! Thanks!
Awesome! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this comment. I really appreciate it. I'm glad you liked the video!
Thanks Sarah. I always like watching medical videos as an EMT so I can learn something new. Like regarding blood clots, i'll be sure to ask my patients that.
Thank you! I'm going for my EMT Basic and the intructor didn't really explain it too well. This really helps!
Same here! So grateful for her.
You explained this so much better then my teacher. He showed us your videos in class actually and I was having such a hard time learning on my own. Because of Covid we can’t learn on each other. :( so I’m having to try on my boyfriend and I’m having such a hard time hearing the thumps. But you helped explain it so well.
Before seening this video I thought that I knew how to take BP. But your video guided me well enough that now I can get accurate results of my readings. Indeed a great skill for early diagnosis that can save precious lives of the patients. Thanks for such an informative video.
I just bought a automatic blood pressure moniter and when I used it , the err reading came up. I will buy a manual blood pressure kit. You really helped me a lot, with the instructions. Thank you very much.
This was amazing and informative for a PT student
Thank you so much, Tamika :) I really appreciate your comment! Thanks for watching the video!
This video helped me to take my grandmothers blood pressure. Thank you!
This is really gonna help me with my exam in two days time thanks for the demonstration
I am a Medical Assistant student. I am glad to know that I am not the only one who is having a hard time listening to the BP sound. Thank you for your video, it is a great help for me.
1st year nursing student here. Thanks so much for this. Only in a few weeks but I wouldn't be surviving Fundamentals without you!
my prof didnt really take time to explain how this works and just played the heart sounds and expect i know everything! you guys are wonderful! keep doing those videos!
Thanks... I am in my last year of medical school and professors never explain as you ... they think you now everythin automatically thanks sis again 😊
Thank you so so so much for making these videos. I just sent in my application for nursing school and I have extreme anxiety trying to get through Pathophysiology but your videos have helped so much.. you are a awesome!!!
+Jessica Perez Thanks so much for your comment and kind words, Jessica. I'm glad my videos have helped you. Patho is definitely a tough class, but hang in there. You'll make it through and be a nurse before you know it =)
Best channel for nursing for me and professional channel. Welldone
Thanks so much for this video! I’m currently in nursing school in this is super helpful. Also, I was so surprised when you turned around and showed how long your hair is!! 😂
Thank you Sarah you help me so much... Actually you are the only one who makes me understand this procedures so well
Thank you so very much! I just started a MA course, and was having such a hard time figuring out how to get an accurate bp. I watched this video on time through, and got it right after. I'll definitely have to subscribe for when I start nursing school!
+Abbi Campbell Wow, thank you so much for your very kind words, Abbi! Congrats on starting your MA course. MA is a great position to do while going to nursing school :) Thank you for subscribing and I hope my channel can help you in your nursing journey.
@@RegisteredNurseRN thanks for saying that. I was really starting to wonder if I was wasting my time in my MA program, being that I really am aiming for nursing. My plan was to work as an MA through nursing school, but not many people I have met think that is a good idea.
Ur lecture is super Sarah madam wonderful mind blowing, ur brilliant ,way teaching is aswome
Keep on doing
I'm a nursing student & ive been having a hard time "listening" to the first & last thump, do you think it's my stethoscope? I love your videos btw!
Hello Mark! It is hard at first to tell which sound is the first (S1) and the second (S2). If you can't hear it at all...then it may be your stethoscope. However, make sure you are placing the diaphragm directly on the artery and avoid placing it over clothes (because this muffles the sound). Also, if you check the carotid pulse in the neck and listen with your stethoscope over the heart at the same time...the "thump" that coincides with the carotid pulse is S1 (the first thump). I have a video that goes in depth with heart sounds if you are interested here: czcams.com/users/RegisteredNurseRNsearch?query=heart+sounds
I hope that helps!
I have the same problem I have a hard time hearing
@@KinkySphincter , My husband had that issues and he bought a new one and it was all he needed .
I now use it for my course.
@@sabrinatai31 Thank you for sharing your experience. I think it is time I upgrade the one my family has.
I’ve watched quite a few videos on this now and yours is the absolute best one, by far! Thank you so much!!
hi, I am so glad you have this video, I work in a hospital as a patient care tech I do almost the same as what a CNA does but a little more. whenever I do a blood pressure on one of my patients and it's too high or low I told my nurses to do it manually but now I am in a nursing program at college and I know I will have to learn to do it manually. I know it is difficult but I refresh from your teaching I hope I can do it better when needed to. thank a lot.( we used the modern day one).
Thanks so much have learned so much in less than 15 mntes.
Thank you so much for this video! Its so helpful ! I also didn't know I could buy them at Walmart I'll definitely be checking that out 😊
Thank-you for the video! It really helps when you have placement, as doing obs correctly is one of the mandatory components to passing first year.
+Amanda You're very welcome, Amanda! I'm glad I could help. I wish you the best in your studies :)
Thank you so much for this video! I just learned today how to properly wash our hands and how to put on and remove PPE, it was no verve wracking having her watch me do it, but I did it write and got those 2 skills checked off! We also learned about vital signs today, and ofc BP is one of them. I kept trying it on different people and I could never understand it, so I just gave it up. Been practicing on my siblings and I somewhat got it. But this video helps me understand ALOT more!! So thank you so very much!! I hope to be as smart as you one day (: oh btw, last semester in Anatomy & Physiology 2 we learned blood flow thru the
I'm a student nurse, you make it easier for me to understand awesome
Thank you so much for your kind words :) I appreciate you taking the time to watch the video and leave this awesome comment. Best wishes in your nursing program!
I just love your teachings and you inspire us so much

Amazing video. I am an economist, so I have nothing to do with medicine but your video made it simple and interesting to understand and learn! Thank you!
Great video! My situation is having 'noisey' finger joints. And they can make the process difficult..
better explication than my actual clinical professor. thank you so much for this video
Thank you so much for the awesome comment, Alanna :) I appreciate it!

I've known about your CZcams page for 3 years now! I finally made it into a traditional BSN program at Palm Beach Atlantic University! Looking forward to watching your videos over the next two and a half years. Great job on explaining how to take a proper blood pressure.
Yay! Congrats to you, Gwendolyn! I look forward to seeing you over the next couple of year as you complete your program. Thank you for the comment and for watching my videos!
