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. The monitor stores measurement
results for two people and features Morning and Evening Averages.
TruRead
TM
allows for three consecutive measurements with timed
intervals for an average reading.
Omron Health Management Software included with this unit allows you
to view, process and print data about blood pressure measured by the
HEM-790ITCAN.
The HEM-790ITCAN comes with the following components:
• Monitor • ComFit
TM
Cuff • AC Adapter
• 4 “AA” Batteries • Storage Case
• Instruction Manual printed in English and French
• USB Cable • CD-ROM • Warranty Card

If battery fluid should get in your eyes, immediately rinse with
plenty of clean water. Contact a physician immediately.
Read all of the information in the instruction manual and any other
literature in the box before operating the unit.
This device is intended for use in measuring blood pressure and
pulse rate in the adult population. Do not use this device on infants
or persons who cannot express their intentions.
SAFETY INFORMATION
OPERATING THE DEVICE (continued)

BEFORE TAKING A MEASUREMENT
To ensure a reliable reading follow these recommendations:
1. Avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, exercising, and bathing 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 arm.
5. Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor . Rest your arm on
a table so that the cuf f 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 may 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 about the same time each day for consistency .

DISPLAY SYMBOLS
The Canadian Hypertension Society (CHS)1recommends the following
guideline for upper limit of normal for home blood pressure readings:
CHS Home Guideline for Upper Limit of Normal BP
Systolic Blood Pressure 135 mmHg
Diastolic Blood Pressure 85 mmHg
This is a general guideline because blood pressure depends on
age and morbidity. The CHS recommends a lower home blood
pressure goal for certain patients, including people with
diabetes or kidney disease

.
The monitor is not intended to be a diagnostic device.
WARNING
Contact your physician for specific information about your blood
pressure. Self-diagnosis and treatment using measured results may
be dangerous. Follow the instructions of your physician or licensed
healthcare provider.
Omron Healthcare recommends you contact your physician if the
MORNING HYPERTENSION SYMBOL and/or the HEARTBEAT
SYMBOL appear on the display with your measurement values.
MORNING HYPERTENSION SYMBOL ()
The Morning Hypertension Symbol is displayed if the morning average
reading for a week is above 135 for the Systolic Blood Pressure value
and/or 85 for the Diastolic Blood Pressure value when viewing the
Morning Averages and the Evening Averages in the memory.

Set the monitor to the current date and time before taking a
measurement for the first time. If the date and time are not set correctly ,
the measurement values stored in the memory and the average values
may not be correct.
The Blood Pressure Monitor automatically stores up to 84 individual
measurements values with the dates and times. The monitor also
calculates weekly averages for measurements in the morning and in the
evening. Morning and Evening averages are stored for this week and the
last seven weeks.
The monitor can also calculate an average reading based on the three
most recent measurements taken within 10 minutes of the last reading.
NOTE: • If only two readings are stored in the memory for the 10-
minute period, the average is based on the two readings.
• If one reading is stored in the memory for the 10-minute
period, this reading is displayed as the average.
