Explain why you should not take a blood pressure in a patient who has lessened circulation in his or her arm?

Taking blood pressure is not recommended on a limb with an IV because it can cause the vein to blow, resulting in a new IV line needing to be inserted. You can take a blood pressure on an IV limb when there is no other choice but try to do it far away from the IV site. If the IV is at the wrist/hand use the upper arm, if it's at the elbow use the lower arm close to the wrist.Good Luck I hope this helps.
