What Is An Irregular Heartbeat?
Model UA-705 provides a blood pressure and pulse rate measurement even when
an irregular heartbeat occurs. An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that
varies by 25% from the average of all heartbeats during the blood pressure

expands. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One's
