MEASURING BLOOD PRESSURE

The blood pressure monitor needs to be at room temperature when measuring. Measurements can be performed on the left or right wrist.

Attaching the Cuff:

1. With your palm up, place the cuff around your left wrist.
2. Position the cuff about half an inch (0.4 in) below the bottom of your hand.
3. Secure the cuff with the hook and loop strip so that it fits snugly but does not affect blood circulation.

Correct Posture:

1. Rest for at least five minutes before each measurement.

2. Perform the measurement either sitting or lying down. Always make sure that the cuff is level with your heart.

3. To perform a measurement, sit comfortably with your arms and back supported. Do not cross your legs and place your feet flat on the floor.

4. Keep still during the measurement and do not talk.

Performing a Measurement:

1. With the device shut off, press M1 or M2 to select a User Number and confirm by pressing the START/STOP Button.
2. With the cuff attached properly and in a correct posture, press the START/STOP Button. All LCD Display elements will briefly display and measurement will begin after about five seconds. To cancel a measurement at any time, press the START/STOP Button again.
3. As the measurement concludes, the cuff will deflate. The pulse symbol will display, along with systolic and diastolic pressure.
4. “Er_” will appear if the measurement was not performed properly. Refer to the “Troubleshooting Guide” section for details about specific error message numbers.
5. Press the START/STOP Button to shut off the blood pressure monitor. The measurement is now stored in the selected user memory. The device will also shut off automatically after about three minutes.
6. If the Bluetooth function is on, data will transfer after pressing the START/STOP Button; the Bluetooth icon will flash in the LCD Display and the unit will try to connect to the HealthManager app on your Bluetooth device for about 30 seconds.
7. When Bluetooth pairing is successful, the icon will display steadily and all measurement data is transferred. The unit will then shut off.
8. If a Bluetooth pairing is not found, the icon will disappear from the LCD Display and the unit will shut off after about three minutes.
9. Wait at least five minutes before taking another measurement.

EVALUATING RESULTS

• Irregular Heartbeat:
  This device can detect irregular heartbeat patterns during measurement and will indicate them by displaying the Irregular Heartbeat Indicator . This may be an indicator for arrhythmia, a condition where the heart rhythm is abnormal. These symptoms (omitted or premature heartbeats, slow or excessively fast heart rate) may be caused, among other things, by heart disease, age, physical predisposition, excessive use of stimulants, stress, or lack of sleep. Only your doctor can determine if you do have arrhythmia.

• Repeat the measurement if the Irregular Heartbeat Indicator displays after a measurement. Rest for at least five minutes between measurements and do not talk or move during measurement. If the Indicator appears often, contact your doctor, since self-diagnosis and treatment based solely on the test results may be dangerous. It is vital to follow your doctor‘s instructions.

Risk Classification
Measurements can be classified and assessed by the table below. However, these standard values are only a general guideline, since individual blood pressure varies in different people and different age groups, etc.

Hypertension Category| Systolic

(in mmHg)

| Diastolic

(in mmHg)

| LED Risk Indicator
---|---|---|---
Grade 3: Severe hypertension| ≥ 180| ≥ 110| Red
Grade 2: Moderate hypertension|

160 – 179

|

100 – 109

|

Orange

---|---|---|---
Grade 1: Mild hypertension| 140 – 159| 90 – 99| Yellow
High Normal| 130 – 139| 85 – 89| Green
Normal| 120 – 129| 80 – 84| Green
Optimal| < 120| < 80| Green

Source: WHO, 1999
It is important to consult your doctor regularly for advice. Your doctor will tell you your individual values for normal blood pressure as well as the value above which your blood pressure is classified as dangerous.
The classification on the display and the scale on the unit show which category the recorded blood pressure values fall into. If the systolic and diastolic values fall into two different categories, the Risk Classification Indicator on the device always shows the higher category.
