GENERAL REMARKS

General remarks on blood pressure an d blood p re ss ur e measurement

1. If the cuff is to be deflated quickly, depress “POWER” switch.

2. The attached cuff is suited for a wrist circumstance of 13.5 cm to 19.5 cm.

3. When attaching the cuff, the body of a blood pressure monitor should be placed on the inside of your wrist.

4. Sel f measuremen t 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 your wrist snugly. (See page 14)

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.

GENERAL REMARKS

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 your wrist for a few minute, as you 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.

Remarks:

The graph is not exact, but may be used as a guide in understanding non-invasive blood pressure measurements. The device intended for use in adult population.

Definition and Classification of Blood Pressure Levels

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.
