BLOOD PRESSURE

What is blood pressure?
Blood pressure is the pressure exerted by the blood on the inner walls of the arteries. Systolic pressure occurs when the heart contracts. Diastolic pressure occurs when the heart expands.
Blood pressure is often given in millimeters of the mercury column, mmHg. To find out what your normal blood pressure is, you measure the blood pressure in the morning  before you have eaten or begun to be active

What is high blood pressure and how do you treat it?
High blood pressure that is not treated can lead to many health problems, including strokes and heart attacks.
Lifestyle can influence blood pressure. High blood pressure can be treated with medicine under the direction of a doctor.
The following measures can help to counteract high blood pressure.
Do not smoke.
Reduce intake of fat and salt.
Avoid overweight.
Exercise regularly.
Undergo regular health checks

Why measure blood pressure at home?
Many people feel anxious when measuring blood pressure at the doctor’s, which can result in the measured value being 25 to 30 mmHg higher than if it was measured at home.  When measuring at home the measured value is not influenced to the same extent by external circumstances, which makes the readings more accurate.

WHO’s a classification of blood pressure
The World Health Organisation (WHO) has established limiting values for blood pressure, without reference to age, which is indicated in the table below.

Variations in blood pressure
A person’s blood pressure can vary by up to 30 to 50 mmHg during the day. For persons with high blood pressure, their blood pressure can vary even more.
Blood pressure normally increases during physical exertion, and is lowest during sleep. Individual measurement results can therefore be misleading.
Note you’re normal blood pressure and take measurements at the same time each day. A lot of measurements provide a better overview of variations in blood pressure.
Always make a note of the date and time for blood pressure measurements. Ask your doctor to help you interpret the results.

OPERATION

Before use Do not attempt to make a diagnosis on the basis of the measured values. Allow a doctor or other medically trained person who is familiar with your health to interpret blood pressure measurements. If you are regularly taking medicine, ask your doctor what is the best time to take your blood pressure. NEVER change your prescribed medication without consulting a doctor.
Persons with irregular or unstable peripheral circulation as a result, for example, of diabetes, liver problems, or stiff arteries, can get different results if their blood pressure is measured at the wrist or the upper arm.
The unit is only intended for adults. Consult your doctor regarding blood pressure measurement in small children or the elderly.
Never use the unit in the vicinity of equipment such as televisions, microwave ovens, X-ray equipment, or mobile phones — this can lead to incorrect results.
The unit must not be used for diagnosis, treatment, or continuous monitoring of acute conditions or operations. Wash your hands before use. If the sleeve is too tight or you experience discomfort, press the power switch immediately to relieve the pressure.

where P is the maximum output specified by the transmitter manufacturer in watts (W) and d is the recommended minimum distance in meters (m). The field strength from a permanent radio transmitter, determined by electromagnetic measurement in situ, should be less than the specified compliance level for the respective frequency range.
Interference can occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the symbol:
Note: 1: The higher frequency range is applicable at 80 MHz and 800 MHz.
Note: 2: These guidelines do not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic radiation can be affected by absorption in and reflection against building structures and other objects, such as people.

a The field strength from permanent transmitters, e.g. base stations for mobile phones and wireless telephony, communication radios, amplitude or frequency modulated radio and television broadcasting cannot be predicted theoretically with a practical degree of accuracy. In those cases where the electromagnetic environmental impact from permanent radio transmitters is important, measurement of electromagnetic field strength in situ should therefore be taken into consideration. If the measured field strength in the place where the model is used exceeds the applicable, above specified compliance levels for radio frequency radiation, the model should be tested and checked to verify that it is working properly. Additional measures may be necessary if incorrect or abnormal functionality is observed, for example, the realignment or repositioning of the model.
b In the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz the field strength should be less than 3 V/m.
