INTRODUCTION

General Description

Thank you for selecting Geratherm® cardio connect blood pressure monitor. The monitor features blood pressure measurement, pulse rate measurement and the result storage. The warranty period is two years.

Readings taken by the TMB-2296-B are equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using the cuff and stethoscope auscultation method. This manual contains important safety and care information and provides step by step instructions for using the product.

Read the manual thoroughly before using the product.

Features:

• Digital LCD display
• Systolic, Diastolic Blood Pressure & Pulse Display
• Measuring-during-inflation technology

Intended Use

This Device is intended for use in measuring blood pressure and pulse rate with arm circumference ranging from 22cm to 32cm (about 8^3/4 - 12^1/2 ) or 22 cm to 42 cm (about 8^3/4 - 16^1/2 ).

It is intended for adult indoor use only.

Measurement Principle

This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring method to detect blood pressure. Before every measurement, the unit establishes a “zero pressure” equivalent to the atmospheric pressure. Then it starts inflating the arm cuff, meanwhile, the unit detects pressure oscillations generated by beat-to-beat pulsatile, which is used to determine the systolic and diastolic pressure, and also pulse rate.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE

What are systolic pressure and diastolic pressure?

When ventricles contract and pump blood out of the heart, the blood pressure reaches its maximum value in the cy is called systolic pressure. When the ventricles relax, the blood pressure reaches its minimum value in the cycle, which is called diastolic pressure.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE

Irregular Pulse Rate Detector

An irregular pulse rate is detected when a pulse rate rhythm varies while the unit is measuring the systolic and diastolic blood pressure. During each measurement, the monitor records all the pulse intervals and calculate the average; if there are two or more pulse intervals, the difference between each interval and the average is more than the average value of ±25% , or there are four or more pulse intervals, the difference between each interval and the average is more than the average value of ±15% , the irregular pulse rate symbol appears on the display when the measurement results are appeared.

CAUTION

The appearance of the IHB icon indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular pulse rate 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.

Why does my blood pressure fluctuate throughout the day?

  1. Individual blood pressure varies multiple times every day. It is also affected by the way you tie your cuff and your measurement position, so please take the measurement under the same conditions.
  2. If the person takes medicine, the pressure will vary more.
  3. Wait at least 3 minutes for another measurement.

What you need to pay attention to when you measure your blood pressure at home:

If the cuff is tied properly.

If the cuff is too tight or too loose.

If the cuff is tied on the upper arm.

If you feel anxious. Taking 2-3 deep breaths before beginning will be better for measuring.

Advice: Relax for 4-5 minutes until you calm down.

Geratherm Cardio Connect - What you need to pay attention to when you measure your blood pressure at home: - 1

natural_image Simple line drawing of a person sitting at a desk with an arm, facing a wall clock (no text or symbols)

Why do I get a different blood pressure at home compared to the hospital?

The blood pressure is different even throughout the day due to weather, emotion, exercise etc. Also, there is the “white coat” effect, which means blood pressure usually increases in clinical settings.

Is the result the same if measuring on the right arm?

It is ok for both arms, but there will be some different results for different people. We suggest you measure the same arm every time.

EMC GUIDANCE

The ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM is suitable for home healthcare environments.

Essential performance:

Accuracy of measuring blood pressure and pulse rate

Measurement RangeSystolic pressure: 60 - 230 mmHgDiastolic pressure: 40 - 130 mmHgPulse: 40 - 199 beats/minute
Rated Cuff Pressure 0-299 mmHg (0 - 39.9 kPa)
Accuracy Pressure: ±3 mmHg/ 0.4 kPaPulse: ±5 %

The Basis Safety of the Blood Pressure Monitor (TMB-2296-B) is as following: Deviation from normal operation that poses an unacceptable risk to the patient or operator.

Warning: Don't be near the active HF surgical equipment and the RF shielded room of an ME system for magnetic resonance imaging, where the intensity of EM disturbances is high.

Warning: Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.

Warning: Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.

Warning: Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the equipment including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this could result.
