Product description and intended use
The blood pressure monitor is an electronic device
for the non-invasive self-measurement of the human
blood pressure and the heart rate in adult persons by
the oscillometric measuring method on the left
exposed wrist of an adult person at home at room
temperature. Handicapped persons themselves
cannot use the blood pressure monitor; they need
the assistance of a person without a handicap. The
measuring values can be transferred to a smart
phone or tablet computer by NFC. For that, install the
free BPM OUcare app.
About bood pressure
What is blood pressure?
The blood pressure is generated by the force of the
blood flow against the arterial walls after the heart
has pumped the blood in the circulatory system.
What are the systolic and the diastolic pressure
?
The systolic pressure is the highest pressure while
the heart contracts; the diastolic pressure is the
pressure while the heart is at rest.
