INTRODUCTION
The Alecto BDM-150 is a blood pressure monitor that has been
developed for easy and accurate blood pressure measure-
ments.
Regular blood pressure measurements taken at home can
provide your doctor with valuable information on your actual
«everyday» values.
Standard values:
Blood pressure constantly changes throughout the day. It rises
sharply in the early morning and declines during the late mor-
ning. Blood pressure rises again in the afternoon and finally
drops to a low level at night. That is why readings can fluctuate
when taken at different times of the day.
Important:
• This product is intended for household use only.
• It is NOT usable to measure the bloodpressure at children.
• Keep product and batteries away from children.
• People suffering from cardiac arrhythmia, vascular constric-
tion, arteriosclerosis in extremities, diabetes or users of car-
diac pacemakers should consult their doctor before measu-
ring their blood pressure themselves, since deviations in
blood pressure values may occur in such cases.
• If you are under medical treatment or receiving medication,
please consult your doctor in case of any doubt.
• The use of this blood pressure monitor is not intended as a
substitute for consultation with your doctor.
