Abstract
A blood pressure measurement apparatus detects a downward flexure of an arm rest and informs a user of the downward flexure on a display unit. By providing a partially color changing display or a blinking display on the display unit, the user is informed that a measurement posture is not good. The blood pressure measurement apparatus has an elbow rest with an arrangement that can easily prompt the user to be in a good posture for measurement.
