INTRODUCTION & INDICATIONS FOR USE

It is recommended that you first seek the advice and recommendation of your physician or healthcare professional when using home diagnostic devices, including blood pressure monitors.

Automatic blood pressure monitors use the oscillometric method to electronically measure your blood pressure. The monitor detects your blood’s movement through the artery in your arm and converts the movements into a digital reading. The oscillometric method does not require a stethoscope, making the monitor ideal for home use.

Blood pressure readings determined with this device are equivalent to measurements obtained by a trained healthcare professional using the cuff/ stethoscope auscultation method, within the limits prescribed by the American

National Standard for Electronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers.
Thank you for purchasing a Smart Heart Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor. With proper care and use, your monitor will provide you with many years of reliable readings.

PLEASE READ THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL COMPLETELY BEFORE OPERATING THIS UNIT.

FITTING & APPLYING YOUR CUFF

PROPER CUFF FIT AND PLACEMENT IS CRITICAL IN OBTAINING ACCURATE BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS. PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND CONSIDER CONSULTING WITH YOUR PHYSICIAN FOR FURTHER DIRECTION.

Before applying your blood pressure cuff, be sure you have selected the appropriate size cuff.
To determine the proper cuff size, measure the circumference of your left upper arm at the point midway between inside bend of your elbow and your shoulder.

Adult Cuff fits arm circumference 8-3/4”—12-1/2” (22—32 cm)
Additional cuff sizes are available for order on the enclosed order form.
If for any reason you are unable to or should not use your left arm, please modify the instructions for cuff application to your right arm. Your physician can help you identify which arm is best for you to take measurements from

Assembling Your Cuff

Your cuff may need to be ‘threaded’ through the metal bar to form the cuff cylinder for your arm.

  1. Lay the open cuff hook and loop side down, size/ instruction wording side up on a flat surface.
  2. Keeping the words on the inside of the cuff, thread the end of the cuff through the metal bar, Fig 1. The end of the cuff should be able to fold over onto itself for securing via the hook and loop closure, Fig 2.

Applying Your Cuff

Be seated at a table or desk with your feet flat on the floor. To avoid accidently pulling on or dropping your monitor, the cuff should not be plugged into the monitor until after the cuff is applied to your arm.

  1. Remove any constrictive clothing or jewelry that may interfere with cuff placement.

  2. Slide the cuff cylinder onto your left arm and align the air hose over the main artery on the inside of your arm, Fig 3. For proper positioning, the tube should follow the inside length of the arm, Fig 4.

  3. The bottom edge of the cuff should be positioned approximately one inch above the elbow joint, Fig 5.
    diagram

  4. The INDEX mark arrow should be within the range bar marking as shown, Fig 6; if the INDEX arrow is outside of the range, a different sized cuff is needed.
    diagram

The cuff should fit comfortably, yet snugly around your arm. You should be able to insert one finger easily between your arm and the cuff.
