▪
Turn off the device, remove the cuff and inform the doctor if you
experience any pain, swelling, redness or numbness in the arm around
which the cuff is placed. (It is expected that some mild to moderate
discomfort may be experienced during a blood pressure
measurement.)
▪
Ensure the correct positioning of the shoulder strap/waist belt and cuff
tube, also see Fig. 1.
▪
External interference factors such as, for example, movement of the
arm being measured, physical activity or driving or using public
transport during measurement may result in so-called motion artefacts
or incorrect measurements. Keep a personal measurement log so that
the doctor carrying out the evaluation can include this in the
assessment.
▪
Switch off the device immediately and remove the cuff and the device
if you experience an allergic reaction on the arm of the blood pressure
measurement.
▪
Self-diagnosis and self-treatment on the basis of the results is
dangerous. Do not undergo any treatment (or change of treatment)
without consulting your doctor.
▪
Make sure that the pressure tube of the cuff cannot be kinked or squeezed, especially when sleeping.
▪
Bleeding in the skin or muscles may occur in patients with sensitive body tissue (petechiae, haemorrhages
or subcutaneous haematomas).
▪
Do not place the Mobil-O-Graph
®
over a wound or bandage.
▪
If the patient has limited cognitive abilities, the device may only be used under supervision.
