Guidelines for Management of Hypertension. Optimal and normal
categories are indicated with green, high-normal category is

indicated with red.
6. IPD (Irregular Pulse Detection): The device can detect irregular pulse
(a pulse interval longer than 5/3 times the average pulse interval)
during measurement. The IPD indicator will appear when more than
three irregular pulses were detected during measurement. If the IPD
indicator is displayed with measurement readings frequently, consult
a physician for further directions.
7. The device also provides the PP (Pulse Pressure) function that is
equal to systolic minus diastolic. If systolic is higher than diastolic
60 mmHg, LCD will display “PP” and differentiation value. If PP
indicator is displayed with measurement readings frequently, please
consult a qualified physician for further direction.
