BP Cuff


Is there any certain brand that is better than another or any brand I should not consider? I know I need one for NS, but evidently we will not get our supply list until we start and I kind of need to space out my purchases. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Your own gloves too??? That's strange. BP cuffs come in so many sizes, do you have to buy all of them? That's going to be expensive.

I am guessing you were joking about the gloves, but with the BP cuff, it does not matter what brand it is. Cheap IS ok here. I used a BP cuff that cost $13 at the time. You should try Ebay for that, or hit up a cheaper catalog. I suggest buying a cuff through Galls.com. Just get their ecnomy BP cuff and you will be fine.
