Evaluating Measurements
Cardiac arrhythmia
This device can identify any potential cardiac arrhythmia
disorders and, if necessary, indicates this after the measurement process with the symbol
. This can be an indicator
for arrhythmia.
Arrhythmia is an illness in which the heart rhythm is abnormal due to errors in the bioelectric system, which controls
the heartbeat. The symptoms (skipped or premature heartbeats, slow or rapid pulse) can stem from heart conditions,
age, physical predispositions, an excess of luxury foods,
stress or a lack of sleep. Arrhythmia can only be diagnosed
by a doctor after a physical examination.
Repeat the measurement process if the symbol is
shown on the display after the measurement. Please
guarantee that you rest 5 minutes before the measurement and do not talk or move during it.
25 GB/IE/NI
If the symbol is displayed repeatedly, contact your doctor. Self-diagnosis and self-treatment
on the basis of measurement results can be dangerous.
Follow your doctor‘s instructions.
Classification of
measurement results
In accordance with the guidelines / definitions provided by
the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the latest findings, the measurement results can be classified and evaluated according to the following table:
Range of
blood
pressure
values
Systole

Source: WHO, 1999
Note: These standard values merely serve as a general guideline
as blood pressure deviates depending on the
individual, different age groups, etc.
It is important that you consult your doctor at regular intervals.
Your doctor will give you your particular values for normal
blood pressure as well as the value for when your blood
pressure is classified as dangerous.
The bar chart on the display and the scale on the device
state which range the blood pressure measured is in.
If the systole and diastole values are in two different ranges
(i.e. systole is „high, normal“ and diastole is „normal“) the
graphic categorisation on the device will always show the
higher range i.e. in the above example this would be „high,
normal“.
