Intended use

Intended use
The blood pressure monitor is intended for the fully automatic, non-invasive measurement of arterial blood pressure and pulse values on the upper arm.
Target group
It is designed for self-measurement by adults in the home environment and is suitable for users whose upper arm circumference is within the range printed on the cuff.
Indication/clinical benefits
The user can record their blood pressure and pulse values quickly and easily using the device. The recorded values are classified according to internationally applicable guidelines and evaluated graphically. Furthermore, the device can detect any irregular heartbeats that occur during measurement and inform the user via a symbol on the display. The device saves the recorded measurements and can also output average values of previous measurements. The recorded data can provide healthcare service providers with support during the diagnosis and treatment of blood pressure problems, and therefore plays a part in the long-term monitoring of the user’s health.

Usage

General rules when measuring blood pressure yourself

• In order to generate as informative a profile of the progression of your blood pressure as possible and ensure that the measured values can be compared, you should measure your blood pressure regularly and always t the same times of the day. It is recommended that you measure your blood pressure twice a day: once in the morning after getting up and once in the evening.
• You should always carry out the measurement when you are sufficiently physically rested. You should therefore avoid taking measurements during stressful periods.
• Do not take a measurement within 30 minutes of eating, drinking, smoking, or exercising.
• Before the initial blood pressure measurement, make sure always to rest for 5 minutes.
• Furthermore, if you want to take several measurements in succession, make sure always to wait for at least 1 minute between the individual measurements.
• Repeat the measurement if you are unsure of the measured value.

Attaching the cuff

• Fundamentally, blood pressure can be measured on both arms. Certain deviations between the measured blood pressure on the right arm and left arm are due to physiological causes and completely normal. You should always perform the measurement on the arm with the highest blood pressure values. Before starting self-measurement, consult your doctor in this regard. From this point on, always take measurements on the same arm.
• The device may only be operated with one of the following cuffs. This should be selected in accordance with your upper arm circumference. The fit should be checked before measurement using the index mark described below.

* Included in a standard delivery

• Pass your bare upper arm through the tube-shaped cuff. The circulation of the arm must not be hindered by tight clothing or similar.
• The device must be placed on the upper arm so that the bottom edge is positioned approx. 2–3 cm above the elbow. Adjust the device so that the  “ARTERY  ” mark is directly over the artery.
• Now press the easy lock locking button until it clicks into place to activate the locking mechanism.
• After it has clicked into place, you can adjust the cuff precisely by turning the easy lock locking button.
• The cuff should be fastened securely but not too tight – so that two fingers fit under the closed cuff.
• The easy lock cuff is suitable for you if parts of the index marking are still visible after attaching and adjusting the cuff and do not disappear in the cuff.

Cuff tightness indicator
The device has a cuff tightness indicator function. Using this feature, the device automatically checks the correct positioning of the cuff on your upper arm during measurement. If the cuff is correctly positioned, the symbol   will appear on the display during inflation. It will remain there until the measurement has been successfully completed and will then be displayed together with the determined measured values. In the event that the cuff has been positioned incorrectly, the measurement is canceled and an error message appears on the display. In this case, please observe the information in the section “What if there are problems?”.

Adopting the correct posture

• To carry out a blood pressure measurement, make sure you are sitting upright and comfortably. Lean back and place your arm on a surface. Do not cross your legs. Place your feet next to each other flat on the floor.
• Always make sure that the cuff is at heart level.
• To avoid distorting the measurement, you should remain as still as possible during the measurement and not speak.

Selecting the user
This device has 2 user memories with 120 memory spaces each in order that you can save measurements from 2 different people separately from each other.
If multiple people are using the device, make sure that the relevant user is set before each measurement.
To do so, proceed as follows:

• Press the setting button  +  or  –  on the switched-off device. The last selected user appears on the display.
• Using the  +/-  setting buttons, set the desired user and confirm your selection with the Start/Stop button  .
  The device then switches off automatically.

Performing the blood pressure measurement

Measurement

• To start the blood pressure monitor, press the Start/Stop button  . All display elements are briefly displayed.

• The blood pressure monitor will begin the measurement automatically after approx. 3 seconds.

• The cuff inflates automatically while the actual measuring process starts. As soon as a pulse is found, the pulse symbol   is displayed.
   You can cancel the measurement at any time by pressing the Start/Stop button .

• • The remaining air is released quickly once the measurement is complete.

• The systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse measurements are displayed, and the LED risk indicator gives you a classification of your measured values using various colors.

•  appears if the measurement could not be performed properly. In this case, please read the section “What if there are problems?”.

• • If the Bluetooth ® function has been activated, the data transfer to the ”beurer HealthManager Pro” or “beurer HealthManager” app starts automatically after the measurement.

• The Bluetooth® symbol flashes on the display. The device now attempts to connect to the app for approx. 30 seconds.

• The Bluetooth® symbol stops flashing as soon as the connection is established. All measurement data is transferred to the apps. Once the data transfer is successfully complete, the device switches off automatically.

• If a connection to the app cannot be established after 30 seconds, the Bluetooth® symbol goes out and the device switches off automatically after 1 minute.

• If you forget to turn off the device, it switches off automatically after approximately 1 minute. In this case, too, the value is stored in the selected or most recently used user memory.

Unlocking the cuff and removing the device
After the measurement has been taken successfully, you can take off the device again. To do so, proceed as follows:

• Pull the easy lock locking button upwards with your fingers to unlock the cuff.
• You can now slightly expand the tube-shaped cuff and then remove it from your upper arm.

Transfer of measurements via Bluetooth®
In addition to displaying and saving your measurements locally on the device, you have the option of transferring your measurements to your smartphone using Bluetooth® low-energy technology.
For this you need the “beurer Health Manager Pro” or “beurer Health Manager” app. These apps are available for free in the Apple App Store and Google Play.

System requirements:
– iOS ≥ 12.0, Android™ ≥ 8.0
– Bluetooth® ≥ 4.0

List of compatible devices:

To transfer the measured values, proceed as follows:

| Step 1: BM 81
Activate the Bluetooth® function on your device as described in the section “Setting the hour format, date, time and Bluetooth® ”.
---|---
Step 2: “bearer Health Manager Pro” or “bearer Health Manager” app
In the „bearer Health Manager Pro“ or „bearer Health Manager“ app, add the BM 81 under Settings / Devices and follow the instructions.
Step 3: BM 81
Take a measurement.
Step 4: BM 81
(Data transfer immediately following the measurement):
If the Bluetooth® function has been activated, the data transfer to the „beurer Health Manager Pro“ or the „bearer Health Manager“ app starts automatically after the measurement.
Step 4: BM 81
(Data transfer at a later point in time):
Go into the memory recall mode for the desired user memory (see “Saving, accessing and deleting measured values”). The data transfer starts automatically.

 Also, note the following information:

• When connecting for the first time, a randomly generated six-digit PIN code is displayed on the device, and at the same time, an input field appears on the smartphone in which you must enter this six-digit PIN code.
  After successfully entering the code, the device will be connected to your smartphone.

• Ensure that the „beurer HealthManager Pro“ or „beurer HealthManager“ app on your smartphone is always activated and open when you start the data transfer on the device.

• You can tell that the data transfer is in progress by the Bluetooth ® symbol shown on the display.

• If your smartphone has a protective cover, remove it to ensure that there is no interference during the transfer.

Evaluating the results
General information about blood pressure

• Blood pressure is the force with which the bloodstream presses against the arterial walls. Arterial blood pressure constantly changes in the course of a cardiac cycle.

• Blood pressure is always stated in the form of two values:
  – The highest pressure in the cycle is called  systolic blood pressure. This arises when the heart muscle contracts and blood is pumped into the blood vessels.
  – The lowest is  diastolic blood pressure , which is when the heart muscle has completely stretched back out and the heart fills with blood.

• Fluctuations in blood pressure are normal. Even during repeat measurements, considerable differences between the measured values may occur. One-off or irregular measurements, therefore, do not provide reliable information about the actual blood pressure. Reliable assessment is only possible when you perform the measurement regularly under comparable conditions.

Cardiac arrhythmia
This device can identify any cardiac rhythm disturbances as part of the analysis of your recorded pulse signal during blood pressure measurement. In this case, after the measurement, the device will indicate any irregularities in your pulse by displaying the   symbol on the display. This can be an indicator of arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is an illness in which the heart rhythm is abnormal because of flaws in the bioelectrical system that regulates the heartbeat. The symptoms (skipped or premature heartbeats, pulse being slow or too fast) can be caused by factors such as heart disease, age, physical disposition, excess alcohol and tobacco, stress, or lack of sleep. If the symbol appears on the display after the measurement, the measurement must be repeated as the measurement accuracy may be impaired. To assess your blood pressure, only use the results that have been recorded without corresponding irregularities in your pulse. If the   symbol appears frequently, please consult your doctor. Only they can establish the existence of an arrhythmia during a checkup, using their means of diagnosis.

LED risk indicator
The World Health Organization (WHO) has defined the internationally recognized classification for the evaluation of measured blood pressure values listed in the table below:

Measured blood pressure value range| Classification| Colour of the LED
risk indicator
---|---|---
Systole  (in mmHg)| Diastole  (in mmHg)
≥ 180| ≥ 110| High blood pressure stage 3 (severe)| Red
160 – 179| 100 – 109| High blood pressure stage 2 (moderate)| Orange
140 – 159| 90 – 99| High blood pressure stage 1 (mild)| Yellow
130 – 139| 85 – 89| High normal| Green
120 – 129| 80 – 84| Normal| Green
< 120| < 80| Optimal| Green

Source: WHO, 1999 (World Health Organization)

The LED risk indicator (colored LED on the device to the left of the display) shows which category the recorded blood pressure falls into. If the measured values are in two different classifications (e.g. systole in the high normal category and diastole in the normal category), the risk indicator then always shows you the higher category – “high normal” in the example described.
Please be aware that these standard values can only serve as a general guideline, as the individual blood pressure varies in different people and different age groups, etc. Furthermore, it must be noted that measurements were taken yourself while at home are generally lower than those that are taken by the doctor. For this reason, it is important that you regularly consult your doctor for advice. Only they are able to give you your personal target values for controlled blood pressure – in particular, if you receive medicinal therapy.
