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.

What is the standard blood pressure classification?

The blood pressure classification published by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Society of Hypertension (ISH) in 1999 is as follows:

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

Irregular Heartbeat Detector

This Blood Pressure Monitor is equipped with an intelligent Irregular Heartbeat (IHB) Detector function. During each measurement, this equipment records the heartbeat intervals and works out the standard deviation. If the calculated value is larger than or equal to 15, this equipment will light up the IHB symbol on the screen when displaying the measuring result.

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.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE

Why does my blood pressure vary, even in one day?

1. Individual blood pressure varies every day. It is also affected by the way you tie your cuff and your measurement position, so please take the measurement in the same conditions.
2. Blood pressure variation is greater if the person takes medication.
3. Make sure you wait at least
3 minutes before taking another measurement.

Why is the blood pressure I get from the hospital different from home?

Blood pressure can vary even during a 24 hour period due to influences like the weather, emotions, exercise etc. You may experience different environmental and emotional conditions at a hospital compared to at home which can affect your blood pressure measurements.

Will I get the same result if I measure on the right arm?

It is ok to use the device on both arms, but the results may differ depending on the person. It is recommended that you measure on the same wrist every time to maintain an accurate record of measurements.

Pay attention to the following when measuring 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 or under pressure,
take a few deep breaths before beginning.
If your measurement is inaccurate, wait 4 to 5 minutes before retesting.
