3.4. Discontinuing a measurement
If it is necessary to interrupt a blood pressure measurement
for any reason (e.g the patient feels unwell), the or button
can be pressed at any time. The device then immediately lowers
the cu ff pressure automatically.
3.5. Irregular Heartbeat Detector (IHD-technology)
This function indicates allorhythmic heartbeating. If the sym-
bol of IHD appears on the display that means that certain
abnormality in heart beat frequency was detected during the
measurement. In this case, the result may deviate from your nor-
mal blood pressure – repeat the measurement. In most cases, this
is no cause for concern. However, if the symbol appears on
a regular basis (e.g. 3-5 times a week with measurements taken
daily) we advise you to tell your doctor. Please show your doctor
the following explanation:
Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of
the Irregular Heartbeat Detector
This instrument is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor
that also analyses pulse frequency during measurement. The in-
strument is clinically tested.
The symbol is displayed after the measurement, if pulse
irregularities occur during measurement. If the symbol ap-
pears more frequently (e.g. several times per week on measure-
ments performed daily) we recommend the patient to seek medi-
cal advice.
The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination, but
serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
