Continue releasing the air from the cuff. When the sound stops, the pressure indicates your heart's diastolic pressure, or the pressure it exerts in between heartbeats. This is the lowest blood pressure level your heart exerts.Repeat the process and measure your blood pressure two more times, with a rest time of two minutes in between each. This ensures that you have a more or less accurate reading. If the differences in the readings are more than 5mmHg, you should take the average of the three readings.
