Can you do blood pressures on old arm fistula?

Yes, it is generally safe to take blood pressures on an old arm fistula. However, there are a few things to keep in mind.

* The fistula may be more fragile than normal skin, so it is important to be gentle when taking the blood pressure.

* The fistula may be located in an area that is difficult to reach, so it may be helpful to use a blood pressure cuff that is designed to be used on the upper arm.

* The fistula may have a higher flow of blood than normal veins, so it is important to inflate the blood pressure cuff slowly to avoid causing pain or discomfort.

If you have any concerns about taking blood pressures on an old arm fistula, it is always a good idea to talk to your doctor first.
