13.Blood Pressure Measurement
13.1. Blood Pressure Measurement
This mode is for using the device solely as a blood pressure monitor. There are three blood
pressure measurement options: [SINGLE], [AVERAGE - 2 TIMES], [AVERAGE - 3 TIMES]. Refer
to Section 18.3. [SINGLE]: Measures blood pressure only once and displays the results.
[AVERAGE - 2 TIMES]: After the results of the first measurement are displayed, the second
measurement will be performed automatically after the set time interval has elapsed. After
measurement is complete, the average value is displayed. [AVERAGE - 3 TIMES]: Three
sequential measurements are taken and the average value is displayed.
Please note - when average
mode is used, only the average can be saved to the database/memory card. If you stop measurement before
the average is reached, no measurement will be saved to the database/memory card.
1.
Apply the cuff.
(Reference to Section 9.1.)
2.
Make sure that the number of blood pressure
measurements displayed at the lower left corner of
the screen (see Fig. 2 - BP Single stands for a single
BP measurement) is the same as the number of
measurements you selected (in the case below, the
user selected a single measurement). Make sure
that the patient’s name and ID are displayed at the
upper left corner of the screen. If they are not
displayed, enter or retrieve the patient’s ID data
according to the description starting in Section 17.
3.
Press START button and start measuring. [Fig. 1]
* Do not press the START (Start measurement) button without
wrapping the cuff.
* When you want to stop during measurement, press the STOP
button. The cuff will rapidly deflate.
Manual Inflation.
* Holding the START button down during inflation switches to
manual inflation. During manual inflation, inflation only occurs
while the START button is pressed. [Figs. 2 - 4]
* Pressing the DISPLAY button during measurement will stop
the measurement and turn off the screen.
4.
The pressure will begin to decrease once the
optimal pressurization value is reached.
After the pressure begins to decrease and
[INFLATE] is displayed, re-inflation will occur only
while the START button is held down.
