I especially don't like this clown because we share a name, but you can absolutely put a cuff on over sleeves and get an accurate reading. Especially a dress shirt.

not with an oxygen moniter on the same arm...

It's imperfect to use the same arm but it's not a big deal

Just don't read the results until a few moments after the cuff is done running

hartsigns.bsky.social•51 days ago

did you learn that from your bong?

hartsigns.bsky.social•51 days ago

just going by the Harvard standard

monitor damn it

It just shuts off the blood to the O2 monitor when the cuff inflates. Comes right back after the cuff relaxes.

You can, but shouldn’t. We’d have put him in a hospital gown, but that ain’t macho.

Not if you want him out in a 1/2 hour or less as in “move along son- we got real fixin’ to do”

nursedarry.bsky.social•51 days ago

True dat. 👍🏻

hartsigns.bsky.social•51 days ago

That's not even the bad part, you NEVER use the same arm for BP and measure oxygen at the same time ON THE SAME ARM !! Nursing 101

he may have commandeered the equipment and self assessed when the pros told him to get lost
