9. ASSESSING HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE FOR ADULTS
The following guidelines for assessing high blood pressure (without regard to age or gender)
have been established by the World Health Organization (WHO). Please note that other fac-
tors (e.g. diabetes, obesity, smoking, etc.) need to be taken into consideration. Consult with
your physician for accurate assessment, and never change your treatment by yourself.
Classification of blood pressure for adults
Note:
It is not intended to provide a basis of any type of rush toward emergen-
cy conditions/diagnosis based on the color scheme and that the color scheme is
meant only to discriminate between the different levels of blood pressure.
10. TECHNICAL ALARM DESCRIPTION
The monitor will show ‚HI’ or ‚Lo’ as technical alarm on LCD with no delay if the determined blo-
od pressure (systolic or diastolic) is outside the rated range specified in part SPECIFICACIONS.
In this case, you should consult a physician or check if your operation violated the instructions.
The technical alarm condition (outside the rated range) is preset in the factory and cannot
be adjusted or inactivated. This alarm condition is assigned as low priority according to IEC
60601-1-8.
The technical alarm is non-latching and need no reset. The signal displayed on LCD will disap-
pear automatically after about 8 seconds.
