Intended use

Thank you for choosing the visomat® comfort eco upper arm blood pressure monitor (also referred to in the following as the unit).

The device is intended for the non-invasive measurement of systolic and diastolic blood pressure, the pulse, and to calculate pulse pressure in adults as part of home healthcare.

The device uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure and pulse measurement. The cuff is connected to the device and wrapped around the arm. A sensor measures the small pressure oscillations generated by the expansion and contraction of the arteries with each heartbeat. The amplitude of the pressure waves is measured, converted into millimetres of mercury (mmHg) and displayed as a digital value.

These instructions are intended to help you use the unit reliably and effectively. Keep the instructions together with the unit at all times. Please read all instructions carefully before using the device. Take special note of the "Important instructions for use" section on page 43.

The unit must be used in accordance with the methods detailed in these instructions and may not be used for other purposes.

1. Important instructions for patients

• Blood pressure measurements on children require specialist knowledge! Please consult your doctor if you wish to measure the blood pressure of a child. Do not under any circumstances use the unit on a baby/infant.
• During pregnancy and in case of pre-eclampsia, the device must be used only after consulting a doctor.
• The cuff has been specially developed for this unit and must not be used with other units.
• The measurement results of automatically measuring blood pressure monitors may be falsified by pregnancy, irregular heartbeat or arteriosclerosis. Measure your own blood pressure in consultation with your doctor.
• The cuff must never be wrapped around a critical point on the arm, such as a wound or aneurysm, etc., or around an arm with an arteriovenous shunt. Risk of injuries! The supply via an intravascular access (infusion) or other medical monitoring devices might be interrupted.
• Do not use the unit without first consulting your doctor if you are undergoing dialysis treatment or taking anticoagulants, platelet aggregation inhibitors or steroids. Internal bleeding may be caused under these conditions.
• If you have had a mastectomy, do not measure blood pressure on the side of the body where the breast has been removed together with the lymph nodes from the armpit.

EN-37

B

• Make sure the air hose is not kinked. A kinked air hose can prevent the cuff from deflating and thereby interrupt the blood flow in the arm for too long.
  • In rare cases the cuff can cause bruises on the skin.
• Wait a few minutes between successive measurements, otherwise the blood flow in the arm will be interrupted for too long, which could result in injury.
• The unit contains small parts which could be swallowed by children. It should therefore be kept out of the reach of children at all times. The airhose poses a risk of strangulation. Please follow instructions regarding the handling of cuff to avoid such risk.
• Discuss the readings with your doctor. Do not assess them on your own.
• Measuring your own blood pressure does not constitute treatment. On no account modify of your own accord the dosage of drugs/medication prescribed by your doctor.
• Please refer to the chapter "Important instructions for use" (Page 43) before conducting any measurements yourself.

EN-38 EN-39

2. Important technical details

• A consistently good power supply to the unit is essential for trouble-free blood pressure measurements.
• Please use long-life alkaline batteries only (LR6).
• When replacing batteries, always replace all the batteries at the same time.
• You will need 4 x 1.5 V AA/LR6 batteries. Rechargeable batteries have a voltage of only 1.2 V and are thus not suitable.
• When using the unit with a mains adapter, please use only the type A2 mains adapter specially tested for medical devices.
• Make sure when operating the unit with the mains adapter that the unit can be disconnected from the mains power supply at all times.
• If the unit is not used for an extended period of time, please remove the batteries. Essentially, all batteries can leak.
• The unit must only be operated with original parts. The warranty will be invalidated if the unit is damaged by non-approved accessories!
• Using the unit in the immediate vicinity of mobile phones, microwave appliances or other devices with strong electromagnetic fields may result in impaired functioning. Maintain a minimum distance of 3 m from such devices when using this unit.
• The display of the pulse frequency is not suitable for checking the frequency of cardiac pacemakers. Cardiac pacemakers and blood pressure monitors do not influence each other regarding their mode of operation.
• The device is not suitable for use with electrosurgical units.

3. Important instructions for use

• The measurement results of automatic blood pressure meters can be affected by where the measurement is taken, your posture, recent physical activity and your physical condition. Observe the usage instructions to ensure correct readings.
• Refrain from drinking alcoholic or caffeinated beverages and smoking at least one hour before measuring.
• Please rest at least 5 minutes before measuring. Depending on the previous degree of stress/exertion, this can even require up to one hour.
• Expose the upper arm. Clothing must not impair the blood flow in or from the arm, as this influences the blood pressure at the measurement point.
• It is absolutely essential to sit still and remain quiet. Irregular movements, vibrations (shaking), talking and breathing heavily will affect and may even falsify the measurement. Look out for irregular pulse signals in the display; if necessary, repeat the measurement under more favourable conditions.
• Blood pressure is not a fixed value. It may fluctuate upwards or downwards by more than 20 mmHg on patients within a few minutes.
• In order to rule out differences between left and right and to obtain comparable measurement results, it is important always to take blood pressure measurements on the same arm. Ask your doctor which arm he/she recommends you take your measurements on.

C

4. Initial operation of the unit

Insert the supplied batteries into the unit.

If the unit is to be operated from the mains power supply, the cable plug of the mains adapter (not included in the scope of delivery) must be inserted into the connection socket of the unit. The batteries are switched off automatically.

Please use only the visomat ^® type A2 mains adapter. See original spare parts and accessories, Page 59.

5. Inserting/replacing batteries

• Opening the battery compartment Open the cover of the battery compartment on the underside of the unit.
• Inserting batteries Remove the old batteries from the unit and insert the new ones. Please observe proper polarity (marking in battery compartment).
• Closing the battery compartment Close the battery compartment by clipping the battery cover back into the unit.

When the display shows the "Flat battery 🔔" symbol for the first time, the unit will still have enough charge for about 30 measurements. Please change the batteries during this period.

When the date/time function is activated, the time is also shown in the display when the unit is switched off.

7. Attaching the cuff

Before putting on the cuff, please check whether your arm circumference is within the range specified on the cuff. An incorrect cuff size can lead to inaccurate readings.

• Expose the upper arm.
• Push the cuff onto the arm (Fig. 1) until the lower edge of the cuff is 2-3 cm above the crook of the arm (Fig. 2).
• When using the unit on the left arm, the air hose runs to the unit through the middle of the arm so that the 4 cm long artery marking is automatically located centrally above the pulse position (Fig. 3).

arm, the cuff must be rotated to the left until the artery marking is on the pulse position. The air hose then runs along the inside of the upper arm (Fig. 4).

Fig. 2• When using the unit on the right

Fig. 3 Fig. 4

Operating the unitOperating the unit

- The cuff should be tightened to such an extent that 2 fingers can still be inserted between arm and cuff. Tip: - Bend your arm slightly.

• The upper arm muscle is tensioned slightly.

• This slightly increases the circumference of the arm.

• Now pull the free cuff end tight and close the Velcro fastener (Fig. 5)

• Check if the measurement arrow on the cuff is inside the "marking for arm circumference" at the edge of the cuff.
• Lay your extended and relaxed arm with the cuff on the dining table and do not move it during the measurement; do not talk. The palm should be facing upwards.
• Connect the cuff connector to the cuff socket on the left-hand side of the unit. Make sure the connector is fully inserted into the unit.

8. Body posture when taking measurements

Whenever possible, measurements should be taken while sitting. In exceptional cases it is also permitted to take measurements while lying down. Body posture must be relaxed.

Measurement while sitting

- For this purpose, sit at a table (if possible the height of a dining table, not a coffee table!).

Fig. 5

C

• Rest your back against the backrest of the chair.
• Rest your forearm completely flat, with the palm of your hand facing upwards.
• Place your feet on the floor and do not cross your legs.

Measurement while lying down

- Lie on your back. Look up at the ceiling during the measurement. Remain calm and do not move.

- Make sure that the measuring point on the upper arm is approximately at the level of your heart. A measuring point lower than the heart may result in a higher reading. A measuring point higher than the heart may result in a lower reading.

9. Measuring blood pressure

• Switch on the unit by pressing the Start/Stop button. The following display is visible (Fig. 1):
  • After the unit has completed its calibration against the ambient air pressure (Fig. 2), the cuff is automatically inflated to approx. 180 mmHg (Fig. 3). If that cuff pressure is not sufficient for measuring the blood

Fig. 1

EN-48 EN-49

Operating the unitOperating the unit

C

pressure level, the device automatically increases the cuff pressure in steps of 30 mmHg until a sufficient cuff pressure has been reached.

• For an inflation pressure exceeding 180 mmHg the inflation process can also be controlled manually: Press the Start/Stop button once again after the inflation has started and release it when the cuff pressure has reached 40 mmHg above the expected maximum systolic blood pressure. The inflation stops with releasing the button.
  • The actual measurement takes place with the start of deflation (Fig. 4). The symbol in the display flashes until the pulse frequency is displayed.
• A long beep signals the end of measurement, and the cuff automatically deflates. The determined values of systole, diastole and pulse and the pulse pressure (PP) are shown alternately in the display. (Fig. 5, Fig. 6)
• The unit switches off automatically after about 3 minutes.

10. WHO traffic light function

The unit categorises the blood pressure readings according to the guidelines of the World Health Organisation (WHO). You can use the coloured fields to read the categorisation of each reading:

• Upper dot (Red) signifies high pressure*
• Middle dot (Yellow) signifies borderline value*
• Lower dot (Green) signifies normal value

WHO 2003 Systolic pressure= Upper valuemmHg**		Diastolic pressure= Lower valuemmHg**
Red	from 140* from 90*
Yellow	120 to 139 80 to 89
Green	below 120 below 80

* It is sufficient for one of the values to be raised.
** millimetres of mercury

The categorisation according to WHO is stored with the readings and can be called up again together with the readings from the memory.

11. Pulse pressure

The pulse pressure - not to be confused with the pulse rate - can provide information on the elasticity of the blood vessels. A rigid vascular system can have a negative effect on the cardiovascular system. Studies show that the cardiovascular risk increases if the pulse pressure value is consistently greater than 65mmHg .

EN-50 EN-51

Operating the unitOperating the unit

C

The heart works in two phases, the contraction phase (systole) and the relaxation phase (diastole). The difference in pressure between systole and diastole is referred to as the pulse pressure or pulse amplitude. The higher the pulse pressure, the more rigid the vessels can be.

High pulse pressure	above 65 mmHg
Increased pulse pressure	55 to 65 mmHg
Normal pulse pressure	below 55 mmHg

If your pulse pressure is permanently above 55 mmHg, consult your doctor.

12. Irregular pulses and cardiac arrhythmia

If the "symbol for irregular pulses waves flashes after a measurement, the unit has recorded irregular pulses during the measurement. This can be set off by an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia), disturbance caused by movement, talking or even breathing in deeply. The symbol is stored with the respective measurement.

If the symbol appears more frequently, this must be discussed with your doctor! Measurement with irregular pulse waves should therefore be viewed as critical and repeated under more favourable conditions.

C

13. Using the memory

Measured results are automatically stored in the memory. The memory can store up to 60 results and the average value. When more than 60 measured values have been stored, the oldest value (No. 60) is deleted to allow the latest value (No. 1) to be recorded.

Recalling data

Press the Memory button to call up data. The average value of the stored results is displayed with "A", the values for systole, diastole and pulse and the pulse pressure (PP) are shown alternately in the display.

When the Memory button is pressed again, the value measured last (No. 1) appears.

When the date/time function is activated, systole, diastole and pulse are displayed alternately with memory number and date, followed by the pulse pressure (PP) and the time.

Press the Memory button repeatedly to call up further measured values.

The stored data remain visible in the display for around 30 seconds. The unit then switches itself off.

C

Deleting data

To delete individual values, press the Memory button several times to obtain the measured value required. Then press the Memory button again and hold it down for 8-10 seconds until the value first flashes and then disappears.

To delete the entire memory, recall the relevant average value display (A) and press the Memory button again, holding it down until the mean value first flashes and then disappears.

D What you should know about blood pressure

1. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure values

The cardiovascular system has the important function of supplying all organs and tissues in the body with sufficient amounts of blood and of transporting metabolites. To do so, the heart contracts and expands at a regular rate of about 60 to 80 times per minute. The pressure of the flowing blood on the artery walls caused by the heart contracting is termed systolic. The pressure in the ensuing relaxation phase, when the heart refills with blood, is termed diastolic. During daily measurement you determine both values.

2. Why you measure different values

Our blood pressure responds to internal and external influences like a sensitive measuring instrument. It can be affected by even slight changes. This explains why values measured by a doctor or pharmacist are higher than those measured at home in the environment you are used to. Changes in the weather, climate changes, or physical or psychological stress can have effects as well.

3. Why you should measure blood pressure regularly

Even the time of day has an influence on your blood pressure. During the day the values are generally higher than during the periods of rest at night. One-off and irregular measurements therefore say little about your actual blood pressure. A reliable assessment is possible only when measurements are taken regularly. Discuss the measurement values with your doctor.
