9.Measurement Preparation
9.2. How to Apply the AI Pulse Wave Sensor Unit
AI measurement is intended only for adults with a wrist
circumference of 10-19 cm around the radius protrusion.
Proper posture
Adjust the height of the chair to align the height of the
wrist with the height of the heart. By sitting back and
keeping the back straight, the arm will naturally be
straight. [Figs. 12 and 13]
* Place the AI pulse wave measurement unit on a flat,
horizontal (non-sloping) surface.
* When measuring with the left arm, place the AI pulse wave
measurement unit on the left side of the patient. (The wrist
rest is set up for a left hand as the initial configuration.) Adjust
the elbow placement board of the AI pulse wave
measurement unit according to the length of the arm of the
patient. (The elbow placement board can be extended
approximately 10 cm) [Fig. 14]
* Instruct the patient to relax and not to move during
measurement.
1.
Place the wrist.
Place the thumb on the side of the wrist rest
indicated by the “thumb side” printing on the wrist
rest. [Figs. 15 and 16]
Align the wrinkle of the wrist joint with the wrist
position mark on the wrist rest. [Fig. 15]
* Instruct the patient, saying “relax your hand”. Patient’s palm
will face the front naturally. (It should be a little limp.)
2.
Adjust the elbow placement board.
Adjust the elbow placement board of the AI pulse
wave measurement unit according to the length of
the arm of the patient. [Fig. 14]
Good posture

Wrist position mark
approx 30 degree
[Fig. 15]
[Fig. 16]
The wrist rest has a slope of approximately 30 degrees.
When putting one’s hand along the slope of the wrist rest,
the wrist goes up by a slope of approximately 30 degrees.
* When measuring with the right arm, adjustment of the
wrist rest will be required. Remove the wrist rest from the
top of the AI Pulse Wave Measurement Unit. Turn it so
that the “thumb side” is facing the opposite direction.
Reinsert the wrist rest on the top of the AI Pulse Wave
Measurement Unit. You will now have the correct slope for
a right hand measurement. Tilt the wrist to turn the thumb
up.
