Attention!
If the device is not used for a longer (>1 day) period, remove the batteries from the battery
compartment. Furthermore, please, keep the device out of reach of children if it is out of use.
Pay special attention when applying the ambulatory BPM device to patients with serious mobility or
other impairments, also unconscious or otherwise incapable patients and patients with coagulation
disturbances. For children it is also recommended to apply the unit with special care. Children should
not use the device on their own!
The device cannot be used on those patients, who are not able to be in calm during the measurements
for any reason (e.g. Parkinson disease or other diseases with tremor). Although, it is not an exclusion
criterion, but regarding the quality of the recordings it is unfavorable, if the patient is not in a proper
condition psychologically/mentally, or makes the 24h recordings impossible intentionally.
Do not remove the
outer cover of the device! The TensioMed® Arteriograph24™ device is
sophisticated, multipurpose, software-controlled measuring apparatus. Should any operating
problems occur, have the device serviced by the manufacturer's service department as described in
