Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Lumiscope Model 1146 Fully Automatic Wrist Style Digital Blood Pressure Monitor.
Intended Use: This device is intended to measure blood pressure and pulse rate of adults only, at home or medical center. The device is NOT recommended for neonatal use.
The unit uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement, which means the unit detects the movement of your blood through your brachial artery, and converts your blood pressure into a digital reading. The unit is simple to use because a stethoscope is not needed while using an oscillometric monitor.
The unit automatically stores 180 (2 * 90) sets of measurement values with the measuring date and time. You can read the stored data conveniently by pressing the memory button.
The unit comes with the following components:
• Main Unit
• Storage Case
• Instruction Manual printed in English and Spanish
The unit has the following advanced functions:
• Backlight
• Voice Function
•
Positioning Sensor
• Display of the date and time

1. Avoid eating,drinking alcohol, smoking, exercising and bathing for 30 minutes before taking a measurement.
2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.
3. The cuff can be applied to your left or right wrist. Always measure your blood pressure on the same wrist.
4. Measurements should be taken in a quiet place.
5. Position the unit at heart level throughout the measurement.
6. Remain still and do not talk during the measurement.
7. Keep a record of your blood pressure and pulse readings for your physician. A single measurement does not provide an accurate indication of your true blood pressure. You need to take and record several readings over a period of time. Try to measure your blood pressure at the same time each day for consistency.
8. Wait 30 ~ 60 seconds between measurements. The wait time allows the arteries to return to their condition prior to taking the blood pressure measurement. You may need to increase the wait time depending on your individual physiological characteristics.

When the unit detects an irregular rhythm two or more times during the measurement, the Irregular Heartbeat Symbol will appear on the display with the measurement values.
An irregular heartbeat rhythm is defined as a rhythm that varies by less than 25% from the average rhythm or 25% more than the average rhythm detected while the monitor is measuring the systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
If the Irregular Heartbeat Symbol ( ) displays with your measurement results, we recommend you consult your physician. Follow the directions of your doctor.

About Blood Pressure
The incidence of hypertension increases with age. In addition, lack of exercise; excess body fat; and high levels of cholesterol (LDL), which sticks to the inside of blood vessels, reduce their elasticity. Hypertension accelerates arterial sclerosis, which can lead to very serious conditions such as stroke and myocardial infarction. For these reasons it is very important to know whether the blood pressure is within a healthy range. Blood pressure fluctuates from minute to minute throughout the day, making it essential to take regular measurements to help you identify an average blood pressure.

When a person’s systolic and diastolic pressures fall into different categories, the higher category should apply.

Reference Material: Journal of Hypertension 1999, Vol 17 No.2
Classification of Blood Pressure
High blood pressure can go unnoticed for a long time, since it doesn’t cause noticeable symptoms. The following are all possible causes of abnormally high blood pressure:
• Overweight;
• High cholesterol level;
• Smoking;
• Excessive alcohol consumption;
• Stress and emotional upset;
• Excessive consumption of salt;
• Lack of physical exercise;
• Genetic / hereditary predisposition;
• Underlying illness, such as kidney
disorders or endocrine disturbance.
If your blood pressure reaches upper values of 140~160 mmHg and lower values of 90~95 mmHg in repeated measurements over several days, you should consult your doctor for detailed medical examination. You can assist the treatment prescribed by your doctor in the following ways:
• Lose weight and lower your
cholesterol level;
• Reduce the consumption of alcohol;
• Reduce the intake of salt;
• Stop smoking;
• Take regular exercise;
• Monitor your blood pressure.

Blood Circulation
The blood circulation is responsible for supplying the body with oxygen. Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the arteries. The systolic blood pressure value (higher pressure or top value) represents
the blood pressure produced by contraction of the heart muscle. The diastolic blood pressure value (lower pressure or lower value) represents
the blood pressure produced by relaxation of the heart muscle.
