What Is FlexiPort?
The FlexiPort is Welch Allyn's universal blood pressure cuff connection system. It allows their blood pressure cuffs to be interchangeable between devices, saving you both money and time.

How Do I Measure Cuff Size?
Cuff size is measured as the circumference around the patient's bicep. For adults this will usually fall between around 25cm and 45cm.
Which Cuff Sizes Are Available?
There is a wide range of options available to choose from:
| Cuff | Cuff Size (cm) |
| Small Infant | 7 – 10cm |
| Infant | 9 – 13cm |
| Small Child | 12 – 16cm |
| Child | 15 – 21cm |
| Small Adult | 20 – 26cm |
| Adult | 25 – 34cm |
| Adult Long Tube | 25 – 34cm |
| Large Adult | 32 – 42cm |
| Thigh (see below) | 40 – 44cm (Thigh) |
Please select your preference from the drop-down menu at the top of this page.
What Is The Long Tube Cuff?
The adult long tube cuff is designed for the same range of arm sizes as the standard adult cuff. The main difference is that the long tube cuff is slightly longer, and therefore potentially able to accommodate a greater range of patients.
What Is the Thigh Cuff?
The thigh cuff allows for blood pressure readings to be taken by an alternate method to the standard cuff, ideal for patients for whom this method is ineffective or impossible. Measurement is taken in the same manner as the standard cuff size, but mid way up the thigh.
Which Devices Are These Cuffs Compatible With?
The Welch Allyn FlexiPort system means that these blood pressure cuffs are compatible with any device which uses a FlexiPort connection. This includes the vast majority of Welch Allyn blood pressure monitoring devices.
