Introduction
These instructions will help you understand the capabilities and operation of
the e-sphyg 3 digital blood pressure monitor. Read this manual thoroughly before
attempting to set up, configure, use, troubleshoot, or maintain the device.
Intended Use
The e-sphyg 3 is a non-invasive digital blood pressure monitor using oscillometric
technique and an upper-arm blood pressure cuff to measure systolic and diastolic
blood pressures, pulse rate, and mean arterial pressure (MAP). It can be used in
pediatric and adult populations with arm cuff circumference sizes ranging from
14 cm to 52 cm.
The device detects the appearance of irregular heartbeat during measurement,
and gives a warning signal with the reading once the irregular heartbeat is
detected.
The device can accurately measure blood pressure in pregnant patients including
those with known or suspected preeclampsia.
The e-sphyg 3 combines the advantages of an automatic blood pressure device
and auscultatory sphygmomanometer. It is designed to provide convenient,
accurate, and reliable office blood pressure measurements according to
guidelines of the European Society of Hypertension (ESH)

, American Heart
Association (AHA)

, and World Health Organization (WHO)

, with the only
modification that the e-sphyg 3 always performs three repeated measurements,
regardless of the result of the first two measurements.
