1. Introduction
Thank you for choosing SensoSCAN. SensoSCAN is a non-invasive
wireless wearable mobile device that allows real-time, continuous,
remote monitoring and analysis of vital signs. SensoSCAN measures the
heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and respiration rate. The
device works in conjunction with iOS and Android smartphones and
tablets to monitor, share and analyze the data. It is packed in an
esthetic and convenient design especially made for comfort and ease
of use.
Sensogram Technologies recommends reading this user manual
thoroughly to understand the full capabilities of the SensoSCAN device
as well as the necessary care and precautions to take.

An iOS (iPad, iPhone, iPod touch) or Android mobile device:
For iOS: the versions 7.0 and higher
For Android: the version 4.3 and higher
Bluetooth version 4.0 and higher
The SensoSCAN Application is installed on the iOS or Android mobile
device
To calibrate SensoSCAN, you must have:
A blood pressure meter also called a sphygmomanometer
4. Product Overview
4.1. The Principle
SensoSCAN captures vital signs through optical biosensors. The
captured and calculated values are transmitted via Bluethooth in realtime to a smartphone or tablet, which displays the parameters. The
SensoSCAN Application also allows the user to send the data to a
dedicated secured cloud system that is accessible via the SensoSCAN
web portal by a health professional practitioner or any person
authorized by you. All parameters are saved and accessible via the
SensoSCAN web portal.
4.2. Intended Use
Practitioners or any individual can use SensoSCAN, whether it is in a
professional setting or at home. Authorized professionals or family
members can receive remote access to monitor the real-time
parameters of the SensoSCAN user.

1. Press the Power On Button once. That will start
SensoSCAN.
2. Insert finger and the Status Screen will present a
bulb signalling proper operation.
3. Short presses on the Power button will scroll trough
a number of screens:
a. Heart Rate (HR) and Oxigenation (SP)
b. Heart Rate (HR) and Respiration Rate (RR)
c. Blood Pressure (BP), in the order presenting
the Systolic and Diastolic Values
d. Back to the Setup Screen
5. SensoSCAN Use
5.1. Measuring Process
SensoSCAN can be used on any finger of the two hands. Before using
it, ensure that your hands are clean and that no ring(s) or other objects
will interfere.
If the nail of the finger you use for the measurement is cut short and
clean from any artificial products such as fingernail polish, painting, or
false nail, insert finger and position it under the LED.
If the nail is painted or false, you must insert the finger in the position to
pass through the back opening.

4. Check the battery level. If the battery level
indicator is low, charge the battery.
The blood pressure needs up to 20 seconds to be
displayed (the time to perform an automatic
calibration).
When you are finished, remove your finger and
switch SensoSCAN OFF by holding down the
power button for three seconds.
1. Insert the Micro-USB connector
side in the SensoSCAN plug.
2. Insert the USB connector side in a
free powered USB plug.
3. A full charge takes up to 45
minutes.
4. The battery is fully charged when
the Battery Symbol displays all
the 5 bars in the Status Screen.
5.2. Battery Charging
To charge the battery use the charging cable provided (USB 2.0 cable
micro-B to type A).
5.3. Blood Pressure Measurement Protocol
The blood pressure measurement protocol is linked to the calibration
section in the SensoSCAN Application User Guide. It is only a
recommendation and a general guideline to help the user improve the
calibration precision. If you take the measurement yourself, you need a
third party blood pressure meter. Otherwise, ask a health professional
practitioner to do it. Tell him/her that you need to know your systolic
and diastolic results.

1. Take the measurement in the morning or in the evening
before going to bed, and in either case, before doing any
physical activity, eating, drinking, smoking, or taking
medicine.
2. Notice that those factors, in addition to stress, excitement,
and certain psychological states can influence the blood
pressure results.
3. Place the blood pressure meter on a table.
4. Site down comfortably on a chair, feet on the floor,
without crossing your legs.
5. Keep relaxed for about 5 minutes before taking the
measurement.
6. Put the armband on your arm as explained in the user
manual of your digital blood pressure meter.
7. Place your arm on the table at heart level.
8. Start the measuring process.
9. Don’t move and keep relaxed during the entire process.
10. Repeat the entire process (1 to 8) on the same arm three
times to validate the results.
11. If the three results are close to each other, take the
average. If not, restart the process later or on another
day.
