INTENDED USE

The Dario Blood Pressure Monitoring System is intended to be used to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate by using a non- invasive technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped on the upper arm. This system should only be used for the testing on people over 18 years of age and over.
The Dario Blood Pressure Monitoring System (model no. DH-1160 and DH-1165) provides Bluetooth transmission.

TEST PRINCIPLE

Blood pressure is measured non-invasively at the arm based on oscillometric method.
This device is NOT able to take measurements in the presence of common arrhythmia, such as atrial or ventricular premature beats or atrial fibrillation. It may produce reading error.

NOTE

These parameters can ONLY be changed in the setting mode.
If the meter is idle for 3 minutes during the setting mode, it will turn off automatically.

USER NUMBER SELECTION

This system stores blood pressure measurements for up to four users. Each user’s test results are stored separately under each user number.

Press to select the desired user number.
Press to confirm. The monitor will repeat the selected user number and then turn off automatically.

TESTING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE

BEFORE MEASUREMENT

Avoid caffeine, tea, alcohol and tobacco for at least 30 minutes before measurement.
Wait 30 minutes after exercising or bathing before measurement.
Sit or lie down for at least 10 minutes before measuring.
Do not measure when feeling anxious or tense.
Take a 5-10 minutes break between measurements. This break can be longer if necessary, depending on your physical condition.
Keep the records for your healthcare provider as reference.
Blood pressure naturally varies between each arm. Always measure your blood pressure on the same arm.

FITTING THE CUFF PROPERLY

Connect the air plug of the tubing to the air jack of the meter.
Assemble the cuff as shown. The smooth surface should be inside of the cuff loop and the metal D-ring should not touch your skin.
Stretch your left (right) arm in front of you with your palm facing up. Slide and place the cuff onto your arm with the air tube and artery mark region toward the lower arm.
Wrap and tighten the cuff above your elbow. The bottom edge of the cuff should be approximately 0.8” to 1.2” (2 cm to 3 cm) above your elbow. Align the tube over the main arteries on the inside.
Leave a little free space between the arm and the cuff; you should be able to fit two fingers between them. Clothing must not restrict the arm. Remove all clothing covering or constricting the measurement arm.
Press the hook material firmly against the pile material. The top and bottom edges of the cuff should be tightened evenly around your upper arm.

PROPER MEASUREMENT POSITION

Sit down for at least 10 minutes before measuring.
Place your elbow on a flat surface. Relax your hand with the palm facing up.
Make sure the cuff is about the same height as the location of your heart.
Press . Remain still and do not talk or move during the measurement. WARNING
If the cuff is relatively lower (higher) than the heart, the obtained blood pressure value could be higher (lower) than the actual value. A 15 cm difference in height may result in an error around 10 mmHg.
Measurement is in progress. After the meter is turned on, the cuff will begin to inflate automatically

TAKING MEASUREMENTS

Always apply the pressure cuff before turning on the meter.

Press . All the LCD symbols will appear. Press to select user “ “(numbers from 1 to 4) whose test reading will be stored in its memory. Then the cuff will begin to inflate automatically.
The heart symbol “ “will flash when pulse is detected during the measurement.
After the measurement, the meter displays the systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse rate.
Press to switch off or it will switch off automatically after being idle for 3 minutes.
The meter will enter Bluetooth mode automatically.

NOTE

If you press during measurement, the meter will be turned off.
If the pulse rate symbol is shown as “ ” instead of “ ” this indicates that the meter has detected an irregular heart beat.

AVERAGING MEASUREMENT MODE

Always apply the pressure cuff before turning on the meter.

Press and hold until the meter displays “AVERAGE’: then press to select user “ ” (numbers from 1 to 4) whose test reading will be stored in its memory. Then the cuff will begin to inflate automatically.
After the first measurement is completed, the meter will start counting down before the second measurement begins. The number on the right represents the remaining countdown between each measurement. The meter will take three (3) measurements consecutively with intervals of 20 seconds.
After taking three measurements, the results are averaged to produce the blood pressure measurement with “AVERAGE” symbol display on the meter. Press to turn off the meter.

METER MEMORY

Your meter stores the 400 most recent blood pressure test results along with respective dates and times in the meter memory. To recall the memory, start with the meter off.

DETAILED INFORMATION

REFERENCE VALUES

Clinical studies show that adult diabetes is often accompanied by elevated blood pressure. People with diabetes can reduce their heart risk by managing their blood pressure along with diabetes treatment1.
Monitoring your routine blood pressure trend helps you to know your body condition. Human blood pressure naturally increases after reaching middle age. This symptom is a result of continuous ageing of the blood vessels. Further causes include obesity, lack of exercise and cholesterol (LDL) adhering to the blood vessels. Rising blood pressure accelerates hardening of the arteries, and the body becomes more susceptible to apoplexy and coronary infarction. Categories of blood pressure in adults2:

Blood Pressure Category| Systolic Blood Pressure (mmHg)| | Diastolic Blood Pressure (mmHg)
---|---|---|---
Normal| Less than 120 mmHg| and| Less than 80 mmHg
Elevated| 120-129 mmHg| and| Less than 80 mmHg
Hypertension| | |
Stage 1| 130-139 mmHg| or| 80-89 mmHg
Stage 2| 140 mmHg or more| or| 90 mmHg or more

Individuals with systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in two categories should be designated to the higher blood pressure category.

a) Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the DH-1160 and DH-1165 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the DH-1160 and DH-1165 should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the DH- 1160 and DH-1165.
b) Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended separation distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the DH-1160

The DH-1160 and DH-1165 is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment (for home healthcare) in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the DH-1160 and DH-1165 can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the DH-1160 and DH-1165 as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

NOT E ** If necessary to achieve the IMMUNITYTEST LEVEL, the distance between the transmitting antenna and the ME EQUIPMENTor ME SYSTEM may be reduced to 1m. The 1m test distance is permitted by IEC 61000-4-3.
a) For some services,on ly the uplink frequenciesare included.
b) The carrier shall be modulated using a 50% duty cycle square wave sig nal.
c)** As an altern ative to FM modulation, 50 % pulse modulation at 18 Hz may be used because while it does not represent actual modulation, it wou ld be worst case.
