The monitor features an easy-to-squeeze inflation bulb that allows you to quickly inflate the cuff. The measurement reading is clearly displayed on a large digital panel.

Omron digital blood pressure monitors use the oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement. This means the monitor detects your blood’s movement through your brachial artery and converts the movements into a digital reading. An oscillometric monitor does not need a stethoscope so the monitor is simple to use.

The Omron HEM-432C Manual Inflation Blood Pressure Monitor is intended for home use.

QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE

1.Avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement.

2.Put your left arm through the cuff loop. The bottom of the cuff should be about 1/2 inch above the elbow. The cuff tab should lie over the brachial artery on the inside of the arm.

3.Pull the cuff so that it is tightened evenly around your arm. Insert one finger under cuff to check fit. Press the sewn hook material firmly against the pile side of the cuff. Make sure that your skin will not be pinched in the D-ring once you inflate the cuff. Immediately deflate the cuff and readjust it if skin becomes pinched.

4.Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor and place your left arm on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart.

5. Turn the monitor on, and after the Ready To Measure Symbol ( ) appears next to a zero on the digital panel, rapidly squeeze the inflation bulb to inflate the cuff. Stop pumping when the numbers on the display are approximately 40 mmHg higher than your normal systolic blood pressure. Do not inflate over 280 mmHg.

6.The cuff will deflate automatically. Remain still throughout the entire reading.

7.When measurement is complete, the monitor alternately displays your blood pressure/ pulse rate on the digital panel. Press the Air Release Button to remove air in the cuff.

8.Wait 2-3 minutes before taking another blood pressure measurement.
