Irregular Heartbeat Symbol( )
When the unit detects an irregular rhythm two or more time during the
measurement, the Irregular Heartbeat Symbol will appear on the display
with the measurement values.
An irregular heartbeat
rythm is defined as
a rhythm that is more than
25% slower or 25% faster
from the average rhythm
detected while the
monitor is measuring
the systolic blood pressure
and the diastolic blood
pressure.
If the Irregular Heartbeat Symbol ( ) displays with your measurement
results, we recommend you consult your physician.
Follow the directions of your doctor.
1. Avoid eating, drinking, alcohol, smoking, exercsing and bathing for 30
minutes before takinga measurement. Rest for at least 15 minutes before
taking the measurement.
2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful
times.
3. The cuff can be applied to your left or right wrist.
4. Measurements should be taken in a quiet place.
5.Position the unit at heart level throughout the measurement.
6. Remain still and do not talk during the measurement.
7. Keep a record of your b;ood pressure and pulse readings for your
physician. A single measurement does not provide an accurate indication
of your trueblood pressure. You need to take and record several readings
over a period of time. Try to measureyour blood pressure at the same time
each day for consistency.
8. Wait 30~60 seconds between measurements.
The wait time allows the arteries to return to the condition prior to taking the
blood pressure mesurement.You may need to increase the wait time
depending on you individual physiological characteristics.
