TIPS ON TAKING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE
1. If treated with hemodialysis or anticoagulants, antiplatelets or steroids, refer to your doctor about
the blood pressure measurement.
2. Malfunctions are possible when the device is used near working mobile phones, microwave ovens
and other equipment generating electromagnetic radiation.
3. For correct measurement it is necessary to know that the BLOOD PRESSURE IS SUBJECT TO SHARP
FLUCTUATIONS EVEN IN SHORT TIME INTERVALS. The blood pressure level depends on many factors.
It is commonly lower in summer and higher in winter. Blood pressure varies along with atmospheric
pressure and depends on the physical exertion, emotional excitability, stress and diet. Medical drugs,
alcohol and smoking exert great infl uence as well. Occasionally, measurements in the clinic cause an
increase in pressure values. Therefore, blood pressure measured at home is often diff erent from that
measured in the clinic. Since blood pressure increases at low temperatures, measurements should be
made at room temperature (about 20°C). If the device was stored at low or high temperature outside
the operational temperature range prior to using, it should be kept for at least 2 hours at room
temperature. Otherwise the measurement result can be erroneous. During the day, the diff erence in
the readings in healthy people may attain 30-50 mm Hg for systolic (upper) pressure and up to 10
mm Hg for diastolic (lower) pressure. Dependence of blood pressure on various factors is individual
for each person. Therefore it is recommended to keep a special recording of blood pressure
readings. ONLY A DOCTOR MAY ANALYZE TRENDS IN CHANGING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE BASED ON
CORRESPONDING RECORDINGS.
4 In case of cardiovascular diseases and a number of other diseases that require the blood pressure
monitoring, measurements should be carried out in the hours specifi ed by a doctor. REMEMBER
THAT THE DIAGNOSTICS AND ANY TREATMENT OF ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION SHOULD BE CARRIED
OUT ONLY BY A DOCTOR BASED ON BLOOD PRESSURE READINGS OBTAINED BY A DOCTOR. MEDICAL
DRUG ADMINISTRATION OR CHANGE OF DOSAGES SHOULD BE MADE ONLY BY PRESCRIPTION OF AN
ATTENDING DOCTOR.
