WRIST BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR
Blood pressure tends to increase with age and depends greatly on the individual way of life. It
is well known that stress, obesity, excessive intake of salt and alcohol all contribute to increase
arterial pressure.
5) Keep the batteries out of the reach of children.
CLASSIFICATION OF BLOOD PRESSURE VALUES
The following table has been developed by the World Health Organization (WHO), a special agency
of the United Nation for health issues.
RANGE SYSTOLIC DIASTOLIC MEASURES
Optimal 105 - 120 60 - 80 self-measurement
Normal 120 - 129 80 - 84 self-measurement
Limit range 130 - 139 85 - 89 refer to a physician
High blood pressure (1st level) 140 - 159 90 - 99 refer to a physician
High blood pressure (2nd level) 160 - 179 100 - 109 refer to a physician
High blood pressure (3rd level) beyond 180 beyond 110 refer to a physician
At the end of each measurement, the measured pressure data are compared with the above mentioned
table. The segments appearing on the left of the display indicate the classification of the blood
pressure values:
Optimal green color
Normal green color
Limit range green color
High blood pressure (1st level) yellow color
High blood pressure (2nd level) orange color
High blood pressure (3rd level) red color
Measured values lower than 105 mmHg (systolic) and than 60 mmHg (diastolic) indicate a low blood
pressure status. It is suggested to refer to a physician.
CORRECT MEASURING METHOD
Many factors determine variations in arterial pressure: physical exercise, eating,
agitation, changes in temperature and emotional stress.
Daily fluctuations of 25 / 50 mmHg are common.
In order to get an accurate blood pressure reading, follow the instructions below:
1) Sit on a chair, relax and try to keep still for at least 5/10 minutes before taking a reading.
2) Remove clothing and jewellery from the arm or wrist before applying the armlet.
3) Avoid eating, smoking and drinking (especially alcohol) before taking the measurement. All these
factors will affect the result of the measurement.
4) Rest the arm on the table so that the armlet is on a level with the heart. The arm must be stretched
out naturally and must be kept still.
5) Use the case or a similar object to support the forearm.
6) Place both feet on the ground.
7) Remember that the blood pressure changes during the day.
Try to effect more measurements during the day for better understanding the
reactions of your body to the different moments of your day (after a physical activity,
during the job, after the meals…).
8) Do not take only one measurement.
At least two measurements should be taken, wait at least 10/15 minutes between
the two measurements. More measurements, taken over a long period of time will
give you a better indication of your blood pressure.
9) Should an unpleasant feeling occur during the measurement, stop immediately the device with
the 0/I button.
IMPORTANT NOTE!
• The device must be kept at the same height of the heart at all times; otherwise it
is not possible to get accurate measurements.
• This unit is designed to measure adult pressure values to be used for people of
18 years and over. If this instrument is applied to the arm of a child, the value
