CAUTION
* This device is intended for adult use in homes only.
* The device is not suitable for use on neonatal patients, pregnant women, patients with
implanted, electronical devices, patients with pre-eclampsia, premature ventricular beats, atrial
fibrillation, peripheral, arterial disease and patients undergoing intravascular therapy or
arterio-venous shunt or people who received a mastectomy. Please consult your doctor prior
to using the unit if you suffer from illnesses.
* The device is not suitable for measuring the blood pressure of children. Ask your doctor
before using it on older children.
* The device is not intended for patient transport outside a healthcare facility.
* The device is not intended for public use.
* This device is intended for no-invasive measuring and monitoring of arterial blood pressure.
It is not intended for use on extremities other than the arm or for functions other than obtaining
a blood pressure measurement.
* Do not confuse self-monitoring with self-diagnosis. This unit allows you to monitor your blood
pressure.Do not begin or end medical treatment without asking a physician for treatment
advice.
* If you are taking medication,consult your physician to determine the most appropriate time to
measure your blood pressure. Never change a prescribed medication without consulting your
physician.
* Do not take any therapeutic measures on the basis of a self measurement. Never alter the
dose of a medicine prescribed by a doctor. Consult your doctor if you have any question about
your blood pressure.
* When the device is used to measure patients who have common arrhythmias such as atrial
or ventricular premature beats or atrial fibrillation, the best result may occur with deviation.
Please consult your physician about the result.
* Don't kink the connection tube during use, otherwise, the cuff pressure may continuously
increase which can prevent blood flow and result in harmful injury to the PATIENT.
* When using this device, please pay attention to the following situation which may interrupt
blood flow and influence blood circulation of the patient, thus cause harmful injury to the
patient: connection tubing kinking too frequent and consecutive multiple measurements; the
application of the cuff and its pressurization on any arm where intravascular access or
therapy, or an arterio-venous (A-V) shunt, is present; inflating the cuff on the side of a
mastectomy.
* Warning: Do not apply the cuff over a wound;otherwise it can cause further injury.
*Do not inflate the cuff on the same limb which other monitoring ME equipment is applied
around simultaneously, because this could cause temporary loss of function of those
simultaneously-used monitoring ME equipment.
*On the rare occasion of a fault causing the cuff to remain fully inflated during measurement,
open the cuff immediately. Prolonged high pressure (cuff pressure
＞
300mmHg or constant
pressure
＞
15mmHg for more than 3 minutes) applied to the arm may lead to an ecchymosis.
*Please check that operation of the device does not result in prolonged impairment of patient
blood circulation.
* When measurement, please avoid compression or restriction of the connection tubing.
* The device cannot be used with HF surgical equipment at the same time.
