Important:
• Recent research suggests that the following values can
be used as a guide to high blood pressure for
measurements taken at home.
This criteria is for home blood pressure measurement.
For professional office blood pressure measurement
criteria, please refer to Chapter 6.
• Your blood pressure monitor includes an irregular heartbeat
feature. Irregular heartbeats can influence the results of the
measurement. The irregular heartbeat algorithm automatically
determines if the measurement is usable or needs to be repeated.
If the measurement results are affected by irregular heartbeats but
the result is valid, the result is shown together with the irregular
heartbeat symbol (
). If the irregular heartbeats cause the
measurement to be invalid, no result is shown. If the irregular
heartbeat symbol (
) is shown after you have taken a
measurement, repeat the measurement. If the irregular heartbeat
symbol (
) is shown frequently, please make your doctor aware of it.
