WHAT IS AN IRREgULAR HEARTBEAT?
The UA-851THW Blood Pressure Monitor provides a blood pressure and pulse rate
measurement even when an irregular heartbeat occurs. The Irregular Heartbeat symbol
will appear in the
display window in the event an Irregular Heartbeat has
occurred during measurement. An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that
varies by 25% from the average of all heartbeat intervals during the blood pressure
measurement. It is important that you relax, remain still and refrain from talking
during measurements.
NOTE: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this
symbol frequently.

The Pressure Rating Indicator™ is a feature which provides
a snapshot of your blood pressure classification based on
your measurements. This will let you quickly know what
your blood pressure readings mean. Each segment of the bar
indicator corresponds to the Seventh Report of the Joint
National Committee (JNC7) on Prevention, Evaluation and
Treatment of High Blood Pressure from the National Heart,
Lung and Blood Institute - May 2003. For a more detailed
look at this blood pressure classification, please refer to
“Assessing High Blood Pressure for Adults” on page E-13.
:The indicator displays a segment, based on the current measurement,
corresponding to the JNC7 Classification.
NOTE: Due to other risk factors (e.g. diabetes, obesity, smoking, etc.) in
addition to your blood pressure measurement, the Pressure Rating Indicator
is approximate. Please consult with your physician for interpretation and
diagnosis of your blood pressure measurements.
