INTRODUCTION

General Description

Thank you for selecting the HoMedics arm blood pressure monitor. The monitor features blood pressure measurement, pulse rate measurement and result storage. The design provides you with two years of reliable service. Readings taken by the blood pressure monitor are equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using the cuff and stethoscope auscultation method.
This manual contains important safety and care information and provides step- by-step instructions for using the product. Read the manual thoroughly before using the product.

Features:

  • 60mm x 40.5 mm LCD
  • Maximum 60 records
  • Measuring during inflation

Indications for Use
The HoMedics Blood Pressure Monitor is a digital monitor intended for use in measuring blood pressure and heartbeat rate with an arm circumference ranging from 22cm to 42cm (about 8¾˝-16½˝). It is intended for adult indoor use only.

Contraindications

  1. The device is not suitable for use on pregnant women or women who think they may be pregnant.
  2. The device is not suitable for use on patients with implanted, electrical devices, such as cardiac pacemakers, and defibrillators.

Measurement Principle
This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring method to detect blood pressure. Before every measurement, the unit establishes a “zero pressure” equivalent to the air pressure.  Then it starts inflating the arm cuff, meanwhile, the unit detects pressure oscillations generated by beat-to-beat pulsatile, which is used to determine the systolic and diastolic pressure, and also pulse rate.

MEASUREMENT

Tie the Cuff

  1. Remove all jewelry, such as watches and bracelets from your left arm. Note: If your doctor has diagnosed you with poor circulation in your left arm, use your right arm.

  2. Roll or push up your sleeve to expose the skin. Make sure your sleeve is not too tight.

  3. Hold your arm with your palm facing up and tie the cuff on your upper arm, then position the tube off-center toward the inner side of arm in line with the little finger. Or position the artery mark over the main artery (on the inside of your arm). Note: Locate the main artery by pressing with 2 fingers approximately 2 cm above the bend of your elbow on the inside of your left arm. Identify where the pulse can be felt the strongest. This is your main artery.

  4. The cuff should be snug but not too tight. You should be able to insert one finger between the cuff and your arm.

  5. Sit comfortably with your tested arm resting on a flat surface. Place your elbow on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart. Turn your palm upwards. Sit upright in a chair, and take 5-6 deep breaths.

  6. Helpful tips for Patients, especially for patients with Hypertension:

  • Rest for 5 minutes before first measuring.
  • Wait at least 3 minutes between measurements This allows your blood circulation to recover.
  • Take the measurement in a silent room.
  • The patient must relax as much as possible and do not move and talk during the measurement procedure.
  • The cuff should maintain at the same level as the right atrium of the heart.
  • Please sit comfortably. Do not cross your legs and keep your feet flat on the ground.
  • Keep your back against the backrest of the chair.
  • For a meaningful comparison, try to measure under similar conditions.
    For example, take daily measurements at approximately the same time, on the same arm, or asdirected by a physician.

INFORMATION FOR USER

Tips for Measurement
Measurements may be inaccurate if taken in the following circumstances.

Maintenance
In order to get the best performance, please follow the instructions below.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE

What are systolic pressure and diastolic pressure?
When ventricles contract and pump blood out of the heart, the blood pressure reaches its maximum value in the cycle, which is called systolic pressure. When the ventricles relax, the blood pressure reaches its minimum value in the cycle, which is called diastolic pressure.HoMEDiCS BPA 3020 EU Automatic Arm
Blood Pressure Monitor - PRESSURE

What is the standard blood pressure classification?
The blood pressure classification published by World Health Organization (WHO) and International Society of Hypertension (ISH) in 1999 is as follows:HoMEDiCS BPA 3020 EU Automatic Arm Blood Pressure Monitor
-hypertension

CAUTION
Only a physician can tell you’re normal BP range. Please contact a physician if your measuring result falls out of the range. Kindly note that only a physician could tell whether your blood pressure value has reached a dangerous point.

Blood Level
pressure (mmHg)| Optimal| Normal| High-normal| Mild| Moderate| Severe
---|---|---|---|---|---|---
SYS| <120| 120-129| 130-139| 140-159| 160-179| ?180
DIA| <80| 80-84| 85-89| 90-99| 100-109| ?110

Irregular Heartbeat Detector
An irregular heartbeat is detected when a heartbeat rhythm varies while the unit is measuring the systolic and diastolic blood pressure. During each measurement, the monitor records all the pulse intervals and calculates the average; if there are two or more pulse intervals,the difference between each interval and the average is more than the average value of ±25%, or there are four or more pulse intervals, the difference between each interval and the average is more than the average value of ±15%,the irregular heartbeat symbol appears on the display when the measurement results have appeared.

CAUTION
The appearance of the IHB icon indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during measurement. Usually, this is NOT a cause for concern. However, if the symbol appears often, we recommend you seek medical advice. Please note that the device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.

Why does my blood pressure fluctuate throughout the day?

  1. Individual blood pressure varies multiple times every day. It is also affected by the way you tie your cuff and your measurement position, so please take the measurement under the same conditions.
  2. If the person takes medicine, the pressure will vary more.
  3. Wait at least 3 minutes for another measurement.

Why do I get a different blood pressure at home compared to the hospital?
The blood pressure is different even throughout the day due to weather, emotion, exercise etc, Also, there is the “white coat” effect, which means blood pressure usually increases in clinical settings.

Is the result the same if measuring on the right arm?
It is ok for both arms, but there will be some different results for different people. We suggest you measure the same arm every time.HoMEDiCS BPA 3020 EU
Automatic Arm Blood Pressure Monitor - measure

What you need to pay attention to when you measure your blood pressure at home:

  • If the cuff is tied properly.
  • If the cuff is too tight or too loose.
  • If the cuff is tied on the upper arm.
  • If you feel anxious.
    Taking 2-3 deep breaths before beginning will be better for measuring.
    Advice: Relax yourself for 4-5 minutes until you calm down.
