I want to know how to measure correctly using digital bp monitor. The result is very different in next/second measurement when no minutes gap is given. Is it the defect of bp monitor or is it also happen on analog monitor.

The monitor should be placed at the level of your heart. You should be in a relaxed state. There is some difference of 10-20 units in digital and manual checking.
