1. Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the BIOS Diagnostics™ Compact Blood Pressure Monitor. Designed for 

convenient and easy operation, this device provides a simple, yet accurate method to measure your blood 

pressure.
Your blood pressure is an important parameter that can be used to monitor your health. This device 

enables you to monitor your blood pressure regularly, and maintain a record of your blood pressure 

measurements. You can then use this record to assist your physician in diagnosing and maintaining a 

healthy blood pressure level.

1.1 Features

The BD323 uses oscillometric technology to measure the arterial blood pressure and pulse rate. The cuff 

is wrapped around the arm and automatically inflated by the air pump. The sensor in the device senses 

weak fluctuation of the pressure in the cuff produced by extension and contraction of the artery of the 

arm in response to each heartbeat. The amplitude of the pressure waves is measured, converted in 

millimeters of the mercury column, and is shown on the display.
•  

Free BPiQ App

 This monitor will connect via Bluetooth to Android and iOS devices. The BPiQ App 

enables users to send secure data to physicians for interpretation.

•  

Memory Features

 30 blood pressure readings with time and date.

•  

BP Assessment Indicator

 displays the range between which your blood pressure values lie, 

according to Hypertension Canada.

•  

Detects Irregular Heartbeat

•  

3X Averaging

 takes 3 blood pressure measurements consecutively and averages the last two 

measurements to show one average measurement.

•  

Time and Date

This device is easy to use and has been proven in clinical studies to provide excellent accuracy. Before 

using the BD323, read this instruction manual carefully and keep it in a safe place.
The blood pressure monitor meets the accuracy requirements of Hypertension Canada and has been 

tested for clinical accuracy.

1.2 Important Information

Refer to the following sections to learn about important safety instructions and how to take care of the 

BIOS Diagnostics™ Compact Blood Pressure Monitor.

1.2A Safety Information

•  Self-measurement means control, not diagnosis or treatment. Your values must always be discussed 

with your doctor or a physician who is familiar with your family history.

•  If you are undergoing medical treatment and receiving medication, consult your doctor to determine 

the most appropriate time to measure your blood pressure. Never alter the dosages of any medication 

without direction from your doctor.

•  Your blood pressure depends on several factors, such as age, gender, weight and physical condition. It 

also depends on the environment and your state of mind at the time of measurement. In general, your 

blood pressure is lower when you are asleep and higher when you are active. Your blood pressure may 

be higher when recorded at a hospital or a clinic and may be lower when measured in the relaxing 

comfort of your home. Due to these variations, we recommend that you record your blood pressure 

regularly at home as well as at your doctor’s clinic.

•  Try to record your blood pressure regularly at the same time of the day and under the same conditions. 

This will help your physician detect any extreme variations in your blood pressure and thus treat you 

accordingly.
