Questions and instructions

Question pretext

First I would like to measure your blood pressure and pulse rate. Stay seated, and once I put this on your wrist,keep it steady and at the level of your heart. We will need to take the blood pressure reading three times. It will squeeze your wrist a bit, but won't hurt. Relax.

Literal question

Time 1, Systolic

Interviewer instructions

INTERVIEWER: respondent should remain seated. Demonstrate to the respondent how to hold their arm while the machine is measuring. Place the monitoring device on the wrist and have the respondent hold it at heart level against his/her chest. When the device is in the correct position and respondent is relaxed, press the button to start. Check to make sure it is working. Collect the blood pressure and pulse 3 times with one minute between each measurement. You do not need to remove the device between measurements.
