Please note that cues provided by this monitor are only intended to
assist you in using this table. The table and cues are only provided for
convenience to help you understand your noninvasive blood pressure
reading as it relates to the American Heart Association
®
information.
They are not a substitute for a medical examination by your physician.
It is important for you to consult with your physician regularly. Your
physician will tell you your normal blood pressure range as well as the
point at which you may actually be considered to be at risk.
HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE
MONITOR WORKS
This monitor uses innovative GentleInflate
TM
technology to measure
your blood pressure. With one touch of a button, the monitor
automatically takes the reading during inflation, then deflates, delivering
a quick, comfortable, and quiet measurement every time.
Please note that any muscle movement during inflation will cause
measurement error. When measurement is complete, the monitor will
display your systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse readings.
The monitor automatically finds where your measurement results fall
on the American Heart Association (AHA 2017) table and provides a
cue if your reading falls into one of the stages that could potentially
indicate increased risk. Please refer to page 21 for more information
on this feature.
The appearance of the
icon indicates that a pulse irregularity
consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during
measurement. Refer to page 22 for more information on the Irregular
Heartbeat Detector.
