3.6 Appearance of the Atrial Fibrillation Indicator (only in MAM mode)
This symbol
indicates that atrial fibrillation was detected during the measurement. If AFIB is present
during blood pressure measurement, the
is displayed flashing at the end of the triple measurement.
In this case, the result may deviate from your normal blood pressure. It is highly recommended to take an
additional measurement an hour later to increase the specificity of the detection. In most cases, this is no cause
for concern. However, if the symbol appears on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with measurements
taken daily) we advise you to visit your doctor. Please, provide the following explanation:
Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the atrial fibrillation indicator
This instrument is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also analyses pulse frequency during
measurement. The instrument is clinically tested.
The
symbol is displayed after the measurement, if atrial fibrillation occurs during measurement. If the
symbol appears more frequently (e.g. several times per week on measurements performed daily) we recommend
the patient to seek medical advice. The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect
atrial fibrillation at an early stage.
• Sometimes the device will detect atrial fibrillation even when it is not there. This can happen if the arm
moves during the reading or another rhythm problem is present. Keep the arm still during the reading.
Visiting your doctor with this device may be necessary to check out any rhythm problems.
• This device may not detect atrial fibrillation in people with pacemakers or defibrillators.
3.7 Hypertension Classification Indicator
The bars on the left hand side of the display show you the range within which the indicated blood pressure
values lies. Depending on the height of the bar, the readout value is either within the normal (green), borderline
(yellow/orange) or danger (red) range.
The classification is based on standards adopted from ESH (European Society of Hypertension), AHA (American
Heart Association) International Guidelines.
Refer to the chart below for details of the classification.

An arrow points to the indicator bar according to your measurement.
• If the arrow points to the first or second green bar, your measurement is
in the green zone, or “Normal” according to the ESH/AHA classification.
• If the arrow points to the third bar, it is still in the green zone, but is
considered high normal according to the ESH/AHA classification.
• If the arrow points to the fourth bar, it is in the yellow “Stage 1
Hypertension” zone.
• If the arrow points to the fifth bar, it is in the orange “Stage 2
Hypertension” zone.
• If the arrow points to the sixth bar, it is in the red “Stage 3
Hypertension” zone.
