Frequently Asked Questions - WGNBPA-940A Walgreens

How do I correctly position the cuff for measurement?
Wrap the cuff around your bare upper arm about 2-3 cm above the elbow. Ensure the artery marker aligns with the inside of your arm. The cuff should be snug but not too tight. Sit with your back straight, feet flat on the floor, and rest your arm on a table so the cuff is at heart level.
What does the irregular heartbeat symbol mean?
The irregular heartbeat symbol (often a heart with a wavy line) indicates that an irregular heartbeat was detected during measurement. This is not a diagnostic tool; consult your doctor if you frequently see this symbol. The reading may still be valid.
Why do I get different readings each time?
Blood pressure fluctuates naturally. For consistency, measure at the same time daily, avoid caffeine or exercise 30 minutes prior, and take multiple readings 1-2 minutes apart. The monitor can average the last 3 readings automatically.
How do I clean and maintain the monitor?
Use a soft dry cloth to wipe the monitor and cuff. Do not use water, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. Avoid getting the monitor wet. Store in a dry, dust-free place away from direct sunlight.
How do I switch between user profiles?
Press the User ID button to toggle between User 1 and User 2. Each user has their own 120-reading memory. The monitor stores measurements separately.
What do the WHO blood pressure risk indicators mean?
The monitor displays a color-coded bar based on WHO hypertension guidelines: Green (normal), Yellow (borderline high), Orange (high), Red (very high). This is for reference only; consult your doctor.
Why does the monitor show an error code (e.g., 'Err')?
Common causes: cuff not properly wrapped, movement during measurement, or battery low. Ensure the cuff is correctly positioned and you are relaxed. If the error persists, replace batteries or check the cuff connection.
How do I set the date and time?
Press and hold the Set button for 3 seconds. Use the +/- buttons to adjust year, month, day, hour, and minute. Press Set again to confirm. Correct date/time ensures accurate storage of readings.
Can I measure blood pressure while moving or talking?
No. Stay still, do not talk, and avoid body movement during measurement. Movement can cause inaccurate readings. Remain relaxed with your arm supported.
How long do the batteries last and when should I replace them?
The 4 AA batteries provide approximately 300 measurements. A low battery indicator will appear on the display. Replace all batteries at once; do not mix old and new batteries.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE

What is Blood Pressure?

Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the artery walls while blood flows through the arteries. The pressure measured when the heart contracts and sends blood out of the heart is systolic (highest) blood pressure. The pressure measured when the heart dilates with blood flowing back into the heart is called diastolic (lowest) blood pressure.

Why Measure Your Blood Pressure?

Among today's various health problems, those associated with high blood pressure are very common. High blood pressure dangerously correlates with cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, blood pressure monitoring is important for identifying those at risk.

Why Do My Readings Vary?

Blood pressure is a body parameter that is subject to normal variations throughout the day. A single reading that is different from yours or your doctor's readings are not necessarily inaccurate. The average of several readings, taken under similar conditions, using the same arm is preferred for accurate blood pressure readings.

Why Are My Readings Different Than Those Taken at My Doctor's Office?

Many experience a phenomenon called “White Coat Hypertension” when measured by a doctor. White Coat Hypertension refers to blood pressure that rises above its usual level when measured in a clinical setting, such as a doctor’s office.

BLOOD PRESSURE STANDARD

The table on page 6 contains defined levels for hypertension that are publicly available from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute at the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) (http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/dci/Diseases/Hbp/HBP_WhatIs.html).

Users can compare their own blood pressure readings against these defined levels to determine if they may be potentially at increased risk.

This table is applicable to most adults aged 18 and older.

CategorySystolic (mmHg)Diastolic (mmHg)
Normal Less than 120 and Less than 80
Prehypertension 120-139 or 80-89
High Blood Pressure
Stage 1 140-159 or 90-99
Stage 2 160 or higher or 100 or higher

Blood pressure tends to go up and down, even in people who normally don't have high readings. If your numbers stay above the "normal" range most of the time, you may be at increased risk and should consult your physician.

Although one can easily find where their own blood pressure readings fall on this table, this monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category Index that automatically compares each reading to the defined levels and provides a helpful cue if your reading falls into one of the stages that could potentially indicate increased risk. See page 19 for more information on this feature.

Please note that cues provided by this monitor are only intended to assist you in using this table. The table and cues are only provided for convenience to help you understand your non-invasive blood pressure reading as it relates to the NIH information. They are not a substitute for a medical examination by your physician. It is important for you to consult with your physician regularly. Your physician will tell you your normal blood pressure range as well as the point at which you may actually be considered to be at risk.

HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR WORKS

This monitor uses innovative technology to detect your blood pressure. This technology enables the monitor to automatically inflate and deflate at the appropriate level for each individual. With one touch of a button, the cuff will automatically inflate to block the blood flow through your artery. Once the measurement is complete, the cuff will automatically deflate.

Please note that any muscle movement during inflation will cause measurement error. When measurement is complete, the monitor will display your systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse readings.

The monitor automatically finds where your measurement results fall on the NIH's National Heart Lung and Blood Institute's table and provides a cue if your reading falls into one of the stages that could potentially indicate increased risk. Please refer to page 19 for more information on this feature.

The appearance of the IR-IR indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during measurement. Refer to page 20 for more information on the Irregular Heartbeat Detector.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

Notes:

  • Blood pressure changes with every heartbeat and is in constant fluctuation throughout the day.
  • Blood pressure measurement can be affected by the position of the user, his or her physiologic condition and other factors.

Before Measurement:

To help ensure an accurate reading, follow these instructions before taking a measurement:

  • Wait 1 hour after exercising, bathing, eating, drinking beverages with alcohol or caffeine, or smoking to measure blood pressure.
  • Sit quietly and rest for 15 minutes.
  • Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.
    • Take your reading in a comfortable environment as measurements can be affected by hot or cold temperatures. Take your blood pressure at normal body temperature.

During Measurement:

  • Do not talk or move your arm or hand muscles.
  • Do not cross your legs. Sit with feet flat on the floor.
  • Do not touch cuff or monitor during measurement.

  • With the cuff wrapped around your arm, press the START/STOP button. Do not inflate the cuff unless it is wrapped around your arm. All digits will light up to check the display functions. The checking procedure will be completed after about 3 seconds.

IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT DETECTOR (IHB)

The appearance of the IHE icon indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during measurement. Usually this is not a cause for concern. However, if the symbol appears often, we recommend you seek medical advice. Please note that the device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.

Irregular Heartbeat Detector

P IHB 12/28/16 12:35 PM ♥ 72

Movement, shaking or talking during the measurement can result in pulse irregularities that may cause the appearance of this icon. Therefore, it is of great importance to not move or talk during measurement.

To determine the presence of an irregular heartbeat, the average of the heartbeat intervals is calculated with the first 3 normal effective heartbeat values. It is important to note that the average is not a strict mathematical averaging of all recorded intervals. At least 3 beats with 25% or greater difference from the average heartbeat interval will generate the on on the screen.

Important Information:

This blood pressure monitor is not designed for use by people with arrhythmias nor for diagnosing or treating an arrhythmia problem. As a safeguard, we recommend that if you have arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats and atrial fibrillation or any other special conditions you should check with your physician before using your blood pressure monitor.
