pulse rate can be safely used by patient. The routine clean and changing batteries can be
performed by the patient.
Caution: To avoid any possibility of accidental strangulation, keep this unit away from children
and do not drape tubing around your neck.
Caution: To avoid damaging the device, keep this unit away from children a nd pets.
Caution: The standard material used for the bladder and tubing is latex-free.
Attention: Self-measurement means control, not diagnosis or treatment. Unusual values must
always be discussed with your doctor. Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages
of any drugs prescribed by your doctor.
Attention: The pulse display is not suitable for checking the frequency of heart pacemakers!
Attention: In cases of irregular heartbeat, measurements made with this instrument should
only be evaluated after consultation with your doctor.
Note: To obtain the greate st accuracy from your blo od pressure inst rument, it is recommended
that the instrument be used within the specified temperature and the relative humidity, please
see the Technical Specifications
Note: The cuff is treated as the applied part.The user should contact the manufacturer for
assistance, if needed, in setting up, using or maintaini ng the device.
2. Important Information on Blood Pressure and its Measurement
2.1. How does high or low blood pressure arise?
Your level of blood pressure is determined in the circulatory center of the brain and adjusts to a
4
Version Number: 1.0
variety of situations through feedback from the nervous system. To adjust blood pressure, the
strength and speed of the heart (Pulse), as well as the width of circulatory blood vessels is
altered.Blood vessel width is controlled by fine muscles in the blood vessel walls.
Your level of arterial blood pressure changes periodically during heart activity: During the
“blood ejection” (Systole) the value is highest (systolic blood pressure value). At the end of the
heart’s “rest period” (Diastole) pressure is lowest (diastolic blood pressure value).
Blood pressure values must lie within certain normal ranges in order to prevent particular
diseases.
2.2. Which values are normal?
Please refer to the diagram below(Picture-01)
Picture-01
There are six grids in the display of device. Please refer to the picture-02. Different grids
represent different interval scales of WHO.
Picture-02
Blood pressure is very high if your diastolic pressure is above 90 mmHg and/or your systolic
blood pressure is over 160 mmHg, while at rest. In this case, please consult your physician
immediately. Long-term values at this level endanger your health due to continual damage to
the blood vessels in your body. If your systolic blood pressure values are between 140 mmHg
5
Version Number: 1.0
and 159mmHg and/or the diastolic blood pressure values between 90 mmHg and 99mmHg,
consult your physician. Regular self-checks are necessary. If you have blood pressure values
that are too low, (i.e., systolic values und er 105mmHg and/or di astolic values u nder 60 mmHg),
consult your physician. Even with normal blood pressure values, a regular self-check with your
blood pressure monitor is recommended. You can detect possible changes in yo ur values
early and react appropriately. If you are undergoing medical treatment to control your blood
pressure, keep a record of values along with time of day and date. Show these values to your
physician. Never use the results of your measurements to independently alter the drug doses
prescribed by your physician.
Further information
• If your values are mostly normal under resting conditions but exceptionally high under
conditions of physical or psychological stress, it is possible that you are suf f ering from
so-called “labile hypertension.” Consult your doctor.
2.3. What can be done if regular high or low values are obtained?
1) Consult your doctor.
2) Increased blood pressure values (various forms of hypertension) are associated with
considerable health risks over time. Arterial blood vessels in your body are endangered due to
constriction caused by deposits in the vessel walls (Arteriosclerosis). A deficient supply of
blood to important organs (heart, brain, muscles) can result from arteriosclerosi s. Furthermore,
the heart will become structurally damaged with increased blood pressure values.
3) There are many different causes of high blood pressure. We differentiate between the
common primary (essential) hypertension, and secondary hyperten sion. The latter group can
be ascribed to specific organ malfunctions. Please consult your doctor for information about
the possible origins of your own increased blood pressure values.
4) There are measures which you can take to reduce and even prevent high blood pressure.
