About Blood Pressure
1. What is blood pressure?
Blood pressure is the force exerted by circulating blood against
the walls of the blood vessels. It is typically measured in
millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and consists of two values: systolic
pressure (the higher value) and diastolic pressure (the lower
value).
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety, or the time of
day can influence your blood pressure. Blood pressure is typically
low in the mornings and increases from the afternoon to the
evening. It is on average lower in the summer and higher in the
winter.
2. Why is it useful to measure blood pressure at home?
Medical physicians generally recommend the Rule of 3, where you
are encouraged to take your blood pressure three times in a row (at
3 ~ 5 minute intervals), three times a day for three days. After
three days, you can average all the results, and this will give you
an accurate idea of what your blood pressure really is.

1. Can this device be used by children?
No, this device is intended for use by adults aged 18 years and
older.
2. Can I use this device if my arm circumference is smaller
than 9 inches or larger than 17 inches?
This device is designed to accommodate arm circumferences
ranging from 9 inches to 17 inches (approx.23 cm to 43 cm). If your
arm circumference falls outside this range, please consult with
your healthcare provider for alternative options.
3. How often should I measure my blood pressure?
It is recommended to measure your blood pressure three times in
a row, at 3 ~ 5 minute intervals, three times a day for three days.
After three days, you can average all the results to obtain an
accurate idea of your blood pressure levels.
4. Can this device detect irregular heartbeats?
Yes, the HL868AX can detect the appearance of irregular

About Blood Pressure
1. What is blood pressure?
Blood pressure is the measurement of the force of blood pushing against the
walls of the arteries. Arterial blood pressure is constantly fluctuating
during the course of the cardiac cycle. The highest pressure in the cycle is
called the systolic blood pressure, and represents the pressure in the artery
when the heart is beating. The lowest pressure is the diastolic blood
pressure, and represents the pressure in the artery when the heart is at rest.
Both the systolic and the diastolic pressure are necessary for a physician to
evaluate the status of a patient’s blood pressure.
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety or the time of day, can
influence your blood pressure. Blood pressure is typically low in the mornings
and increases from the afternoon to the evening. It is on average lower in the
summer and higher in the winter.
2. Why is it useful to measure blood pressure at home?
Having one’s blood pressure measured by a doctor in a hospital or a clinic is
often associated with an event called “White Coat Hypertension” where the
patient becomes nervous or anxious, thus raising his blood pressure. There are
also numerous other factors that might cause your blood pressure to be raised
at a specific time of day. This is why medical physician recommend home
monitoring as it is important to get readings of blood pressure during
different times of the day to really get an idea of your real blood pressure.
Medical physicians generally recommend the “Rule of 3”, where you are
encouraged to take your blood pressure three times in a row (at 3 ~ 5 minute
interval), three times a day for three days. After three days you can average
all the results and this will give you an accurate idea of what your blood
pressure really is.

About Blood Pressure
A. AHA blood pressure classifications: Standards for assessment of high or low
blood pressure without regard to age, have been established by the American
Heart Association (AHA 2017), as shown in the chart.
However, this chart is not exact for classification of blood pressure and it’s intended to be used as a guide in understanding non-invasive blood pressure measurements. Please consult with your physician for proper diagnosis.
B. Variations in blood pressure:
Individual blood pressures vary greatly both on a daily and a seasonal
basis. These variations are even more pronounced in hypertensive
patients. Normally the blood pressure rises while at work and is at its
lowest during sleeping period.
(hypertension: means a person who has high blood pressure
symptom.)
The graph below
illustrates the variations
in blood pressure over a
whole
day
with
measurement
taken
every five minutes.
The thick line represents
sleep. The rise in blood
pressure at 4 PM (A in the
graph) and 12 AM (B in
the graph) correspond to an attack of pain.

Measurement Method
HL868AX Automatic Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor measures blood pressure and
heart rate by oscillometric method, meaning the fluctuations in pressure are
measured. Once the cuff is wrapped around your upper arm, just turn on the
monitor and inflation automatically starts. The inflation of the cuff creates
pressure around the arteries inside upper arm.
Within the cuff is a gauge which senses the fluctuations (oscillations) in
pressure. The fluctuation measured represents the degree of intensity that
your arteries contracting with each heartbeat, and also a result of the
pressure that the cuff has placed on the upper arm. The monitor measures these
contractions and converts the information to a digital value. This is the
result displayed on the monitor screen.
Once the measurement is completed, the cuff will automatically deflate.

Features
Risk Category Indicator (AHA 2017)
This device is equipped with Risk Category Indicator which classifies your
blood pressure measurements into five stages (Normal, Elevated, Hypertension
stage 1, Hypertension stage 2 and Hypertensive crisis) based on the blood
pressure standards established by the American Heart Association (AHA).
Besides, for yours and your loved ones ‘health, we further classify the five
stages into numeral ranges, which sorts out hypertension symptoms more
clearly. Moreover, to your convenience and readability, we use three
corresponding colors to represent your measuring result. Refer to below
comparison chart for details:
After measurement, LCD displays the systolic and diastolic pressure, heart
rate, date and time along with Risk Category Indicator bar. The higher the
blood pressure, the higher the bar. Compare the bar with the three colors at
the left of LCD display to know the classification of your blood pressure
based on American Heart Association standard (AHA 2017).
Note When a person’s systolic and diastolic pressures fall into different categories, the higher category should apply. e.g. systolic pressure 181 and diastolic pressure 99 Red category (Hypertensive crisis) e.g. systolic pressure 110 and diastolic pressure 95 Red category (Hypertension stage
2)
Note !
The above table is not exact for classification of blood pressure and it’s
intended to be used as a guide in understanding non-invasive blood pressure
measurements. Usually this is not a cause for concern; however we recommend
you consult with your physician for proper diagnosis or seek medical advice
according to our recommendation mentioned above. Please note that the device
does not appropriate to diagnose hypertension, and it is only for user
reference on blood pressure monitoring.

Features
Advanced Average Function
The advanced average function automatically takes and averages 3 readings in a
row, with 1 minute rest intervals between each measurement. To deactivate this
feature and take only one single reading, slide the switch on the back to the
OFF position.
Irregular Heartbeat Detector
The symbol
will appear on screen indicating a certain
heartbeat irregularity was detected during measurement.
The heartbeat rhythm that is more than or less than 25% from the average
rhythm is usually defined as an irregular heartbeat rhythm. Talking, moving,
shaking or an irregular pulse during the measurement can result in the
appearance of this symbol. Usually this is not a cause for concern, however if
the symbol appears often, we recommend you seek medical advice. And please
note that the device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to
detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
*Note The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart
pacemakers. If a certain pulse irregularity is detected during measurement
often, we recommend you seek medical advice As a safeguard, we recommend that
if you have arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats and
atrial fibrillation or any other special conditions you should check with your
physician before using your device. The IHB function is designed neither for
use by people with arrhythmias nor for diagnosing or treating an arrhythmic
problem. In order to filter the unstable status of user and avoid affecting
the detection of heart rate from any movement, shaking or talking in the
beginning of measurement, the method of averaging heartbeat intervals of
subject device is calculated with the three proper heartbeat pulses detected
in the beginning of measurement and that is different from a strict
mathematical averaging of all recorded intervals. At least 3 beats with 25% or
greater difference from the average heartbeat interval will generate the IHB
icon on the screen.

Applying the Cuff
Wrap the cuff on a bare arm or over thin clothing. Thick clothing or a rolled
up
sleeve will cause inaccurate blood pressure measurements. Press your brachial
artery approximately 1 inch (2 ~ 3 cm) above the elbow on
the inside of your left arm to determine where your strongest pulse is. Slide
the end of arm cuff furthest from the tube through
the metal ring to a loop. The smooth cloth should be on the
inside of the cuff. If the cuff is located correctly, the velcro will be on
the
outside of the cuff, metal ring will not touch your skin, and
the arrow on the cuff should be fallen within the Proper Fit
Range (Figure 1). Put left arm through the cuff loop. The tube should lie over
the brachial artery on
the inner part of the arm. The bottom edge of the cuff should be
approximately. 1 inch (2 ~ 3
cm) above the inner elbow.
Pull the end of the cuff so that it tightens evenly around your arm,
allowing room for 2 fingers to fit between the cuff and your arm
(Figure 2). When the cuff is positioned properly, press the velcro firmly
against
the pile side of the cuff and make sure the cuff is not slipped during
measurement, and the arrow falls within the Proper Fit Range.
Sit on a chair comfortably, put your feet flat on the floor and lay
your forearm on the table, make sure your back and arm supported,
legs uncrossed, so that the cuff is at the same level as your
heart(Figure 3). Relax your arm and turn your arm upward. Make sure there are
no kinks in the air tube.
Note Fit the cuff snugly, leaving enough space for 1 inch (2 ~ 3 cm) between
the inner elbow and
the lower edge of the cuff, or the measurement may not be accurate. In case
the cuff kept pumping up non-stop, unwrap the cuff at once. Do not wrap the
cuff around any body part other than your arm. Do not use this device if your
arm has any wound or injury, especially after surgery on the
arm. Otherwise, it may cause infection at the surgical site. Please use the
device after the wound has healed. If there is one of situations mentioned
below, please dispose the device without reuse. If you have any infectious
skin disease or the device is used by users with infectious skin disease,
