AAMA CMA Practice Question

During your routine check of the clinic's electronic blood pressure monitor, you notice that the readings have been consistently higher when compared to a recently calibrated manual sphygmomanometer for the same patient. What should be your first action to address this issue?

  • Check if the electronic blood pressure monitor's batteries need replacement

  • Continue to use the electronic blood pressure monitor but record that readings may be higher

  • Remove the electronic blood pressure monitor from service and have it calibrated

  • Ignore the discrepancy as long as the electronic blood pressure monitor functions and turns on
