Thank you for purchasing this ne quality instrument, which will allow you to
monitor your blood pressure easily and effectively anywhere and at any lime!

What is Blood Pressure?

Blood Pressure is a measurement of the pressure of the blood owing against
the walls of the arteries. Arterial blood pressure is constantly changing during
the course of the cardiac cycle. The highest pressure in the cycle is called the
systolic blood pressure. The lowest is the diastolic blood pressure; the both rea­dings are necessary to enable you to evaluate the status of your blood pressure.
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety, or the lime of day, can inuence
your blood pressure, Blood pressure is typically low in the morning but high from
afternoon to evening. II is lower in the summer but higher in the winter.

What is normal blood pressure?

Blood pressure varies from individual to individual and is dependent upon
a number of factors, such as age, weight, physical condition of gender.
The classic normal reading for an adult between the ages of 18 and 45 is
120/80. Remember, only your physician is qualied to determine whether the
readings you obtain are normal for you.

How to measure the blood pressure?

1. Relax yourself and adjust to a proper position

• It is very important that the person whose blood pressure is being taken is
relaxed and sitting comfortably.

• Keep arm being measured at heart level. Arm extended but not too tense
or stiff. Rest arm on a at surface, such as a desk with the left palm facing
upwards. Keep arm being measured still.

2. How to put on the velcro cuffs and chestpiece

• Place the cuff 2-3cm above the bend of the elbow on the naked left upper
arm; Close the cuff by means of the velcro closure. Cuff should be snug, but
not too light. One or two ngers should t between cuff and anm. Never place

cuff over article of clothing

• For cuff with metal D-shaped ring, pull the free end of the cuff through the
D-ring and close the cuff by means of the Velcro closure.

• In units intended for home use, the diaphragm of the chestpiece of the ste­thoscope integrated into the cuff must be placed above the brachial artery.

3. Inflating the cuff

• Close the air valve on the bulb by turning the screw clockwise, Do not over­tighten.

• Squeeze the ination bulb with the hand you used to at a steady rate until
the needle on the gauge points 30mmHg above your normal upper systolic­pressure value. If you don’t know it, inate just to 200mmHg.

4. Systolic blood pressure reading-upper value

• Slowly open air valve by turning screw counter clockwise and hold ste­thoscope chestpiece over brachial artery. Proper deation rate is vital for
an accurate reading so you should practice and master a recommended
deation rate of 2-3mmHg per second or a drop of one to two marks on the
pressure gauge each heartbeat. You should not keep the cuff inated any
longer than necessary. As the cuff begins to deate, you must listen carefully
with the stethoscope. Note the reading on the gauge as soon as you hear a
faint, rhythmic tapping or thumping sounds. This is the systolic-upper-blood
pressure reading. Listen carefully and familiarize yourself with pulse sound.
Once familiar you should check this procedure with your physician.

5. Diastolic blood pressure reading-lower value

• Allow the pressure to continue dropping at the same deation rate. When your
diastolic-lower-blood pressure value reached, the thumping sound stops.

• Deate the cuff valve completely. Remove the cuff from arm and stethoscope
from ears.

6. Record your readings

• Repeat the measurement two or more times. Do not forget to record your
readings and the time of the day measurement is made immediately after you
nish measuring. A convenient time is rst thing in the morning, or just before
evening meals. Remember that your physician is the only person qualied to
analyze your blood pressure.
