hypertension. It also helps to support the doctors' work.
The World Hypertension League is a world-wide
association of experts specialising in hypertension. The
World Hypertension League recommends regular blood
pressure monitoring by doctors and patients with
clinically validated devices.
As the worlds leading manufacturer OMRON provides a
range of products for regular blood pressure monitoring.
Important
instructions to
help you obtain
meaningful
readings
• Important: Blood pressure measurement is not
suitable in cases of serious arteriosclerosis
(hardening of the arteries).
• The pulse display is not suitable for monitoring the
frequency of cardiac pacemakers.
• If you suffer from disorders of heart rhythm, known
as arrythmia, you should only use this blood pressure
monitor in consultation with your doctor. In certain
cases the oscillometric measuring method can
produce incorrect readings.
• Pregnant women should only measure their own
blood pressure in consultation with their doctor, since
the readings may be changed by pregnancy.
• You should avoid eating, drinking (alcohol), smoking
and sports before measuring your blood pressure, as
this could affect your blood pressure level.
• Don’t
move, don’t speak while measurement is being
taken.
• Make yourself comfortable in a chair and relax before
each reading.
• We recommend that you monitor your blood pressure
twice a day, in the morning after getting up and in the
evening after work, or as advised by your doctor.
• Please remember: Self-measurement is not the
same as medical treatment !
You should never change the dose of medicines
prescribed by your doctor.

OMRON 705IT is a compact, fully automatic blood
pressure monitor, operating on the oscillometric
principle. It measures your blood pressure and pulse
rate simply and quickly. It contains an intelligent “fuzzy
logic” system for controlled inflation,
known as “Intellisense”. This is an
advanced method of oscillometric
measurement and does not require pressure presetting or re-inflation. OMRON is the world’s leading
manufacturer of blood pressure monitors with the goal
to always fulfill the need for reliable regular monitoring.

How to take a
reading
➊
Press the (O/I) button.
a) All display symbols appear for approximately
one second.
b) When the monitor becomes ready to measure,
the ( ) symbol appears on the display.
➋
Press the (START ) button and remain still.
As the cuff begins to inflate, the monitor
automatically determines your ideal inflation level.
Because this monitor detects the pulse even
during inflation, do not move your arm but remain
still until the entire measurement completes.
• If you want to stop the inflation or measurement,
press the (O/I) button. The monitor will stop
inflating and start deflating rapidly, then the
monitor will turn off.
➌
Inflation stops automatically and measurement is
started.
As the cuff slowly deflates, decreasing numbers
appear on the display and the ( ) symbol
flashes at every heartbeat. In rare circumstances,
a higher inflation may be necessary. In those
cases, the monitor reinflates the cuff up to 30
mmHg higher than initial inflation and restarts the
measurement.

automatically shut itself off after five minutes.
Instructions for special conditions:
• If your systolic pressure is known to be more than
220 mmHg, press and hold the (START ) button
until the monitor inflates 30 to 40 mmHg higher
than your suspected systolic pressure.
NOTE :
Do not apply more pressure than necessary.
The monitor will not inflate above 300 mmHg.

Some useful information about blood pressure
What is Blood Pressure ?
Blood pressure is a measure of the force of blood flowing against the walls of the
arteries. Arterial blood pressure is constantly changing during the course of the heart’s
cycle. The highest pressure in the cycle is called the SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE;
the lowest is the DIASTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE. Both pressure readings, the
SYSTOLIC and DIASTOLIC, are necessary to enable a doctor to evaluate the status of
a patient’s blood pressure.
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety, or the time of day, can influence
your blood pressure. Blood pressure is typically low in the morning and increases from
afternoon to evening. It is lower in the summer and higher in the winter.
Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury (mmHg) and measurements
are written with the systolic pressure before the diastolic e.g. Ablood pressure written
as 140/90, is referred to as 140 over 90 mmHg.
High Blood Pressure
The discovery that you have high blood pressure is more often than not a chance
finding. People with high blood pressure usually feel well unless the blood pressure has
been high for some time, and complications have occurred. Such complications may
effect the heart, brain and other important organs. They may bring on ill health and
affect your enjoyment of life. It is because of the complications, rather than the high
blood pressure itself, that this condition is taken so seriously today.
High blood pressure is sometimes referred to as raised blood pressure, elevated blood
pressure, or hypertension. Most people with this condition require regular long-term
drug treatment, usually in the form of tablets. Some can lower their blood pressure
sufficiently by other means, such as changing diet and life-style.
People who have high blood pressure, and who also understand their condition, have
an advantage. They are more likely to attend for regular check-ups, to cooperate with
advised diets and changes in lifestyle, and to take medicines correctly. This
immediately leads to better health. It is hoped that, by a better understanding of high
blood pressure and how it is treated, you will take an active and informed part in your
health care, and so enjoy a better quality of life.
22
What Causes High Blood Pressure ?
Blood pressure is only classed as high if it doesn’t go down when you rest. Permanently raised blood
pressure can be caused by several factors such as hardening of the arteries, smoking or drinking too
much alcohol. It can also be caused by cholesterol, a type of fat, building up inside your blood vessels
and making them narrower. Being under stress can add to the problem.
High blood pressure is also known to run in families hence if you find you have a high blood pressure it
is a good idea to test other closely related members of your family.
Why is it a Good Thing To Measure Blood Pressure at Home ?
Having your blood pressure measured by a doctor can cause anxiety which is a cause itself of high
blood pressure. As a variety of conditions affect blood pressure, a single measurement may not be
sufficient for an accurate diagnosis.
The blood pressure measured first thing in the morning after getting up, before eating and while at rest,
is known as the fundamental blood pressure. In practice it is rather difficult to record the fundamental
blood pressure, but it is important to get readings in an environment that is as close as possible to this.
Classification of Blood Pressure by the World Heath
Organization
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the International
Society of Hypertention (ISH) developed the Blood Pressure
Classification shown in this figure.
This classification is based on the blood presure values
measured on people in a sitting position in outpatient
departments of hospitals.
*There is no universally accepted definition of hypotension. However, those
having the systolic pressure below 100 mmHg are assumed as hypotensive.
