Your new digital blood pressure monitor uses 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 HEM-780 comes with the following components: |
|||
• Monitor |
• ComFit™ Cuff |
||
• AC Adapter |
• 4 “AA” Batteries |
||
• Storage Case
• Instruction Manual printed in English and Spanish
The HEM-780 IntelliSense® Automatic Inflation Blood Pressure Monitor is intended for home use.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
To assure the correct use of the product basic safety measures should always be followed including the precautions listed below:
Read all information in the instruction book and any other literature included in the box before using the unit.
Contact your physician for specific information about your blood pressure. Follow the instructions of your healthcare provider.
Operate the unit only as intended. Do not use for any other purpose.
The unit is intended for use in measuring blood pressure and pulse rate in adult patient population. Do not use on infants or persons who cannot express their intentions.
Do not use a cellular phone near the unit. It may result in operational failure.
Do not plug or unplug the adapter power cord with wet hands.
Changes or modifications not approved by Omron Healthcare will void the user warranty. Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the unit or components.

BEFORE TAKING A MEASUREMENT
To ensure a reliable reading follow these recommendations:
1. Avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for 30 minutes before taking a measurement. Rest for at least 15 minutes before taking the measurement.
2. Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.
3. Measurements should be taken in a quiet place. 4. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your left arm.
5. Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Rest your left arm on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart.
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 2-3 minutes between measurements. The wait time allows the arteries to return to the condition prior to taking the blood pressure measurement. You may need to increase the wait time depending on your individual physiological characteristics.
