Disposable medical pressure cuffs of the type having one side made from a flexible non-porous plastic sheet and the other side made from a woven fabric sheet that presents a fleecy surface to provide comfort when in contact with the body of a patient are improved to prevent air leakage around joints of such sheets with inflation fittings by containing them in a small, fabric sheet-free section along the longitudinal edge of the cuff where the fittings enter the cuff and flanges of the fittings are heat sealed to the inside surface of the plastic sheet within the area of such section. Methods for forming such improved cuff structures are disclosed.
