The individual results are not displayed. Your blood pressure
will only be displayed after all 3 measurements are taken.
Do not remove the cuff between measurements.
If one of the individual measurements was questionable, a
fourth one is automatically taken.
4. Taking a blood pressure measurement
Checklist for taking a reliable measurement
1. Avoid activity, eating or smoking immediately before the
measurement.
2. Sit down on a back-supported chair and relax for 5 minutes.
Keep your feet flat on the floor and do not cross your legs.
3.
Always measure on the same arm
(normally left). It is recom
-
mended that doctors perform double arm measurements on a
patients first visit in order to determine which arm to measure in
the future. The arm with the higher blood pressure should be
measured.
4. Remove close-fitting garments from the upper arm. To avoid
constriction, shirt sleeves should not be rolled up - they do not
interfere with the cuff if they are laid flat.
5. Always ensure that the correct cuff size is used (marking on the
cuff).
Fit the cuff closely, but not too tight.
Make sure that the cuff is positioned 1 - 2 cm above the
elbow.
The
artery mark
on the cuff (ca.3 cm long bar) must lie over
the artery which runs down the inner side of the arm.
Support your arm so it is relaxed.
Ensure that the cuff is at the same height as your heart.
6. Press the ON/OFF button
1
to start the measurement.
7. The cuff will now pump up automatically. Relax, do not move
and do not tense your arm muscles until the measurement
result is displayed. Breathe normally and do not talk.
8. When the correct pressure is reached, the pumping stops and
the pressure falls gradually. If the required pressure was not
reached, the device will automatically pump some more air into
the cuff.
9. During the measurement, the pulse indicator
AS
flashes in the
display.
10.The result, comprising the systolic
AL
, the diastolic
AM
and the
pulse rate
AN
are displayed.
11.When the device has finished measuring, remove the cuff.
12.Switch off the device. (The monitor does switch off automati
-
cally after approx. 1 min.).
How not to store a reading
As soon as the reading is displayed press and hold the ON/OFF
button
1
until
«M»
AR
is flashing. Confirm to delete the reading by
pressing the M-button
2
.
5. Appearance of the Atrial Fibrillation Indicator for
early Detection (Active only in AFIB/MAM mode)
This device is able to detect atrial fibrillation (AF). This symbol
BT
indicates that atrial fibrillation was detected during the measure
-
ment. Please refer to the next paragraph for information regarding
the consultation with your doctor.
You can stop the measurement at any time by pressing the
ON/OFF button or open the cuff (e.g. if you feel uneasy or
an unpleasant pressure sensation).
If the systolic blood pressure is known to be very high
,
it can be an advantage to set the pressure individually.
Press the ON/OFF button after the monitor has been
pumped up to a level of approx. 30 mmHg (shown on the
display). Keep the button pressed until the pressure is
about 40 mmHg above the expected systolic value – then
release the button.
Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the
atrial fibrillation indicator
This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also
analyses pulse irregularity during measurement. The device is
clinically tested.
The AFIB symbol is displayed after the measurement, if atrial
fibrillation occurred during measuring. If the AFIB symbol
appears after having performed a full blood pressure measure
-
ment episode (triplicate measurements), the patient is advised
to perform another measurement episode (triplicate measure
-
ments). If the AFIB symbol appears again, we recommend the
patient to seek medical advice.
If the AFIB-symbol appears on the screen of the blood pressure
monitor, it indicates the possible presence of atrial fibrillation.
The atrial fibrillation diagnosis however,
must
be made by a
cardiologist
based on ECG interpretation.
