Introduction
Blood pressure measurements determined with J401 are equivalent to
those obtained by a trained observer using cuff/stethoscope auscultation
method, within the limits prescribed by the American National Standard,
Electronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers.
J401 is protected against manufacturing defects by an established
International Warranty Program. For warranty information, you can contact
the manufacturer, Rossmax International Ltd. or your local distributors
Attention: Consult the accompanying documents.
Please read this manual carefully before use. For specific information on
your own blood pressure, contact your physician. Please be sure to keep
this manual.
Preliminary Remarks
This Blood Pressure Monitor complies with the European regulations underlying
the German Law governing medical products (MPG) and bears the CE mark "CE
0366". The quality of the device has been verified and conforms to the provisions
of the EC council directive 93/42/EEC dated 14 June 1993 concerning medical
devices, as well as the EMC directive 89/336/EEC:EN 1060-1 (Dec. 1995)
Non-invasive blood pressure measuring equipment General requirements and EN
1060-3 (Feb. 1997) Noninvasive blood pressure measuring equipment
Supplementary requirements for electromechanical blood pressure measuring
systems. To ensure accurate measurements, it is recommended that calibration
be completed every two years.
How “J401” Works
J401 uses oscillometric method to detect your blood pressure. Before the cuff
starts inflating, the device will establish a baseline cuff pressure, which is
equivalent to the air pressure. The measurement of your blood pressure is
based on this baseline pressure. After the cuff inflates to block your blood in the
artery, the deflation process starts. During the deflation of the wrist cuff, J401 is
detecting the pressure oscillations generated by the beat-to-beat pulsatile. Any
muscle movement during this period of time will cause measurement error. After
detecting the amplitude and the slope of the pressure oscillations during the
deflation process, J401 will determine the systolic and diastolic pressures for you,
and your pulse rate is detected at the same time.
