Thank you for choosing the innovative MDMouse® blood pressure monitor!
High blood pressure is a significant contributor to serious diseases such as heart
attack and stroke, but it is largely controllable with knowledge, lifestyle and
diet. Regularly monitoring will provide you and your physician with the
knowledge needed to decrease your risk of disease.
Use the MDMouse monitor as your normal computer mouse and you will
always have a handy blood pressure monitor right at your fingertips, making it
easy to quickly keep track of your blood pressure .
This manual will guide you through installation and how to take a blood
pressure measurement. You can find more information in the “Help” section of
the MDMouse application, and on our website at www.mdmouse.com.

Safety and General Precautions
Intended Use
This device is intended for adults and for measuring blood pressure and pulse rate.
This device is not intended to be a diagnostic device. Self diagnosis and self treatment
are dangerous. Contact your physician if you observe values indicating hypertension.
Caution
People with severe blood flow problems or disorders should consult their physician
prior to using any blood pressure monitoring device as cuff inflation can cause damage
or internal bleeding.
Do not take measurements right after drinking alcohol, smoking, exercise, or eating as
those activities may distort the results.
Performance can be affected by a number of health factors including age, diabetes,
common arrhythmias, ventricular premature beats, atrial fibrillation, arterial sclerosis,
and pregnancy.
Care of your MDMouse
Do not inflate the inflatable cuff without a finger inserted inside the cuff.
Clean with a lightly-dampened cloth (don’t use chemical cleaners).
Do not bend or fold or use sharp objects which could damage the air bladder.

Getting the Most From Your MDMouse
Here are some tips to help you get the most from your MDMouse monitor:
Get in the habit of checking your blood pressure frequently. Replace
your existing computer mouse with the MDMouse monitor so it is
always handy, and then use it periodically when you are using your
computer.
Set up reminder alerts to help you get in the habit of regularly
checking your blood pressure at consistent times of day.
It is important to not only check your blood pressure frequently but
also to look for trends and changes over time.
If you are seeing blood pressure test results that indicate any
hypertensive condition, let your physician know so they can work with
you on a plan to address this potentially serious condition.
Get everyone in your household (adults and teens) set up as different
users and have them regularly check their blood pressure. Since
hypertension is impacted by diet and lifestyle, viewing your family’s
data can give a better picture of the changes you may need to make,
and it also helps if everyone is working to that common goal.
Remember to loosen the cuff adjustment ring before removing your
finger after a measurement – this will help prevent damage to the
inflatable bladder.
There are many resources available to help understand and control
blood pressure and its associated health conditions. You will find
some helpful links on our website at www.mdmouse.com.

Troubleshooting
If you are experiencing problems with the MDMouse monitor, please check
the following:
Problem Try This:
The inflatable finger cuff
does not inflate after
starting a measurement
1) Stop and restart the MDMouse application and try again.
2) Disconnect the MDMouse USB cable and reconnect.
The inflatable cuff doesn't
deflate after a
measurement
1) Stop and restart the MDMouse application and try again.
2) Disconnect the MDMouse USB cable and reconnect.
Measurements seem
erratic or vary significantly
from measurement to
measurement.
It is common to see some variation
since blood pressure changes
throughout the
day, and from day to day. Take several
measurements over a 10
-15 minute period to see if they are
consistent. If
not:
1) Ensure the finger cuff is positioned all the way down the base
of your left index finger
2) Make sure the cuff is snugly tightened on your left index finger
every time you take a measurement
3) Hold the monitor near heart level in the same position each
time you take a measurement
4) Keep your finger during a measurement; slight movements can
affect the measurement accuracy.
5) Stay still and don't talk while measuring BP
