GENERAL REMARKS
General remarks on blood pressure and blood pressure
measurement
1. If the cuff is to be deflated quickly, depress “Exhaust button”.
2. The attached cuff is suited for an arm circumstance of 22 cm to 32
cm.
3. When attaching the cuff, the air hose should be placed on the inside
of your arm on top of the arterial.
4. Self measurement is not therapy! In no case may you change the
dosage of medication prescribed by your physician.
5. In preparation for blood pressure measurement, you should urinate
and then remain relatively still for 10 to 15 minutes prior to
measurement.
6. Exercising, eating, drinking, smoking, etc., prior to measurement may
affect the results.
7. Blood pressure varies constantly throughout the day. Measurement
should be made regularly at the same time each day.
8. DO NOT be too impressed by the results of one measurement. Keep
a record of blood pressure variations. Many reading tell a story.
9. Emotional stress may tend to cause blood pressure to rise.
For proper measure of blood pressure
1. Take a deep breath five or six times and then relax before measuring
your blood pressure. If you are tense when taking the measurement,
you will not get a valid reading.
2. Blood pressure will be elevated when you are in a worrisome or
irritated state, suffering from lack of sleep or constipation, or after
exercise or a meal.
3. Wrap the cuff around the arm and tighten it so that one finger may be
inserted between the cuff and arm. (See page 12)
4. DO NOT measure blood pressure after bathing or drinking.
5. When you feel like relieving yourself, you should do so before
measuring your blood pressure.
6. Measure your blood pressure where the room temperature is about
20°C. DO NOT measure blood pressure when it is too cold (below
10°C) or too hot (above 40°C) in the room.
7. DO NOT try to measure blood pressure immediately after drinking
coffee or tea or smoking.
8. Measure blood pressure with a relaxed and quiet posture. Keep the
center of the cuff at the level of your heart, and DO NOT move your
arm or talk.
9. DO NOT measure blood pressure after the cuff has been on for a few
minute, as your arm will have built up higher blood pressure, and you
will not get valid reading.
10.Next figure shows the classification of blood pressure according to
WHO-standard.
Measure your blood pressure at the same time on a daily basis.
* The blood pressure changes at all times. This means that data
gathered over a long period has great significance instead of data on
just one measurement. It is therefore necessary to measure your
blood pressure on a daily basis. Ideally, you should measure your
blood pressure daily at the same time as far as possible.

The heart is a pump that
circulates blood throughout your body. Blood is pumped from the heart
at a constant pressure into arteries. This pressure is called the arterial
blood pressure, which represents, in general, blood pressure. Blood
pressure is indicated by several kinds of pressures such as: systolic
pressure that occurs when the heart pumps blood; and diastolic pressure
that occurs just when blood returns to the heart.
Blood pressure
differs with age, gender and other factors. Blood pressure of one person
is likely to be affected by biorhythm of a day, posture, physical activities,
mental activities, stress and atmospheric temperatures.
It is said that blood pressure of a healthy person varies by 20 to 50
mmHg within a day.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON BLOOD PRESSURE
Q Why is the blood pressure measured at home different from
that measured at the physician or a hospital?
A Blood pressure may vary with exercising, ambient
temperature or mental states. When you have a physician
or nurse measure your blood pressure, the pressure value
is likely to be 10 to 20 mmHg higher than usual because of
concern and nervousness. To know what affects blood
pressure is helpful to your health monitoring.
Q What is the benefit of measuring blood pressure at Home?
A Blood pressure measured
at home is reliable since it
can be measured in a
stable and relaxed
condition. Physicians lay
importance on blood
pressure measurements
taken at home. It is
recommended to measure
your blood pressure at the
same time on a daily
basis and to record blood pressure variation.
Always consult your physician for interpretation of your blood
pressure readings and proper treatment.
Caution
Be sure to check the following before sending your blood
pressure monitor for repair/inspection.
Phenomenon Point to be checked How to repair
Check whether batteries
are dead.
Replace all batteries with
new ones.
Check whether batteries
are installed with incorrect
polarity ( + – ).
Check if the mark has
come on.
Check if the arm cuff is
wrapped properly.
Did you stay calm during
measurement?
Note that measurement of blood pressure may not be
possible for someone with an extremely weak pulse or
cardiac arrhythmia (irregular pulses).
Load the batteries with
correct polarity.
Wrap the arm cuff properly.
Measure again, making sure
to remain still.
Display gives no
indication even
when you press
