RISK CATEGORY INDEX
This monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category Index
that automatically compares each reading to defined levels
established by the U.S. National Institutes of Health’s (NIH)
National Heart Lung and Blood Institute as described earlier
in this manual, and provides a helpful cue if your reading falls
into one of the stages that could potentially indicate increased
risk. No cue is given if the reading falls in the normal range
as defined by NIH. Please note that cues provided by this
monitor are only intended to assist you in using this table.
The table and cues are only provided for convenience to help
you understand your non-invasive blood pressure reading as
it relates to the NIH information. They are not a substitute for
a medical examination by your physician. It is important for
you to consult with your physician regularly. Your physician
will tell you your normal blood pressure range as well as the
point at which you may actually be considered to be at risk.
