Instruction Manual

General remarks on blood pressure and blood pressure measurement

1. To deflate the cuff quickly, press the "START/STOP" switch.
2. The attached cuff is suitable for wrist circumferences of 13.5-21.5 cm.
3. When attaching the cuff, the body of a blood pressure monitor should be placed on the inside of your wrist.
4. Self measurement is not therapy! In no event should you change the dosage of your medication prescribed by your physician.
5. As preparation for measuring your blood pressure, you should urinate and then remain relatively still for 10 to 15 minutes prior to measurement.
6. Exercising, eating, drinking, smoking, etc., prior to measurement may affect the results.
7. Your blood pressure varies constantly throughout the day. Measurements should be taken regularly at the same time each day.
8. DO NOT place too much emphasis on the results of one measurement. Keep a continuing record of your blood pressure variations. A complete picture can only be obtained from a large number of readings.
9. Emotional stress tends to cause your blood pressure to rise.

To obtain correct blood pressure measurements

1. Take five or six deep breaths and then relax before measuring your blood pressure. If you are tense when taking the measurement, you will not get a valid reading.
2. Your blood pressure will be elevated if you are anxious or irritated, suffering from lack of sleep or constipation, or have just taken some exercise or eaten a meal.
3. Wrap the cuff around your wrist snugly. ( See page 14)
4. DO NOT measure your blood pressure after bathing or drinking.
5. If you feel the need to urinate, do so before measuring your blood pressure.
6. Measure your blood pressure where the room temperature is around 20^ C. DO NOT measure your blood pressure when it is too

cold (below 10^ C) or too hot (above 40^ C) in the room.

1. DO NOT try to measure your blood pressure immediately after drinking coffee or tea or after smoking.
2. Measure your blood pressure when you are relaxed and still. Keep the center of the cuff at the level of your heart and DO NOT move your arm or talk.
3. DO NOT measure blood pressure when the cuff has been on your wrist for a few minutes or more. During this time, your wrist will have built up a higher blood pressure and you will not get valid reading.
4. If the Body Movement Indicator or Irregular Heartbeat (IHB)Indicator is displayed, relax and measure your blood pressure again. If the Irregular Heartbeat (IHB) Indicator appears frequently, you are advised to consult a doctor about your health condition. (See page 19)
5. The figure below shows the blood pressure classifications under the WHO standards.

Definitions and Classifications of Blood Pressure Levels

Measure your blood pressure at the same time each day.

* Your blood pressure changes all the time. This means that data gathered over a long period has far more signifi cance than data from just one measurement. For this reason, you must measure your blood pressure on a daily basis. Ideally, you should measure your blood pressure at the same time each day, wherever possible.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE

Precautions for use

1. If you suffer from heart disease, high blood pressure or other circulatory disease, consult your physician before using the monitor.
2. If you feel abnormal pressure of the cuff during use or any other irregularity, reduce the pressure by immediately switching off the power or remove the batteries and consult the sales outlet where purchased.
3. If you think the measurement is abnormal or if measurement makes you feel unwell, discontinue use and consult your physician.
4. Blood pressure measurement may not be possible for anyone with a weak pulse or arrhythmia.
5. Repeated blood pressure measurement may cause problems such as congestion or swelling in some people.
6. Frequently repeated blood pressure measurements will not give accurate results. Allow an interval of about 1 minute between measurements.
7. If you suffer from a severe problem with blood circulation in your arms, consult your physician before using the monitor. Failure to do so could be hazardous to your health.
8. Measurement may not be possible for anyone with insufficient blood flow to the area where measurements will be taken or who suffers from a frequent irregular heartbeat. Consult your physician for advice on whether to use the monitor.
9. DO NOT wrap the cuff around an injured wrist.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE

1. DO NOT wrap the cuff around a wrist in which a drip (intravenous infusion) is inserted, or which is being used for blood transfusion as part of medical treatment. Doing so could result in an injury or a serious accident.
2. DO NOT use the monitor in the vicinity of fl ammable gases such as those used for anaesthesia. Doing so could ignite the gases and cause an explosion.
3. DO NOT use the monitor in enriched oxygen environments such as a hospital's hyperbaric chamber or oxygen tent. Doing so could ignite the oxygen and cause a fire.
4. DO NOT use mobile phones near the monitor as this could result in a malfunction.
5. If you use a cardiac pacemaker, consult your physician before using the monitor.
6. Be sure to use this unit only for measuring blood pressure. DO NOT use it for any other purpose.
7. DO NOT use this unit on infants.
8. Blood pressure measurement may not be possible for anyone with common arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats or atrial fi brillation.

Maintenance Precautions

1. DO NOT store the blood pressure monitor in locations exposed to direct sunlight, high temperatures (over 60^ C), low temperatures (below -20^ C), high relative humidity (over 95%) or excessive amounts of dust.
2. DO NOT drop the blood pressure monitor or subject it to other shocks or vibration.
3. Remove the batteries if the monitor will be left unused for a long period.
4. DO NOT attempt to disassemble the monitor.
5. DO NOT bend the cuff excessively.
6. If the monitor is very dirty, wipe it clean with a cloth moistened with sterilizing alcohol or a neutral detergent. Then wipe it with a dry cloth.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE

1. NEVER clean the blood pressure monitor with thinners or benzene, as this could damage the monitor.
2. To clean the cuff, wipe it with a moist cloth. Avoid hard rubbing, as this will cause air leakages.

3 Loosely fit the wrist cuff by pulling the end of the cuff.  4 Position the top edge of the cuff approximately 1 to 2 ~cm away from the crease of your wrist.  5 Secure the wrist cuff with the Velcro. \- If the wrist cuff is wrapped too loose or tight, errors or incorrect readings may result.  You may use your right wrist to measure your blood pressure. However, your blood pressure may differ by about 10mmHg depending on whether measured on your left or your right wrist, so ideally you should measure your blood pressure on the same wrist each time.

To obtain accurate measurements

\- Wrapping the cuff too loosely or too tightly may prevent correct measurement. \- Sit up straight while taking the measurement.

TIPS FOR OBTAINING ACCURATE MEASUREMENTS

Your blood pressure varies according to your posture, the time of day and a range of other factors. Ideally, you should measure your blood pressure in the same posture at the same time every day. ① Make sure that your posture is correct. Sit up straight, take a deep breath and relax. 

To obtain correct measurements

ABOUT "BLOOD PRESSURE"

What is blood pressure?

The heart is a pump that circulates blood throughout your body. Blood is pumped from the heart at a constant pressure into arteries. This pressure is called the arterial blood pressure and represents, in general terms, your blood pressure. Blood pressure is indicated by several kinds of pressures, including the systolic pressure that occurs when the heart pumps blood, and the diastolic pressure that occurs when blood returns to the heart. 

Your blood pressure changes all the time.

Your blood pressure differs according to your age, gender and a range of other factors. It is likely to be affected by your biorhythm during the day and by your posture, physical activities, mental activities, level of stress and even by the air temperature. The blood pressure of a healthy person generally varies within a day. [Example of blood pressure variations within a day]  (Blood pressure values measured at five-minute intervals through the day) ● Bevan AT, Honour AJ, Stott FH. Clin Sci 1969;36:329–44.

BLOOD PRESSURE Q&A

Q Why is the blood pressure measured at home different from that measured by the physician or at a hospital? A Your blood pressure may vary due to exercise, the ambient temperature or your mental state. When you have a physician or nurse measure your blood pressure, the pressure value is likely to be 10 to 20 mmHg higher than usual due to anxiety and/or stress. Knowing what affects your blood pressure helps you to better monitor your health. Q Why does the blood pressure obtained vary with measurement? A Our blood pressure is adjusted by automatic nerve function. Blood pressure differs with every heart beat. We are likely to think that our blood pressure is constant, but it varies if you take measurements in repetition. Blood pressure is susceptible to the time of day, such as morning and afternoon, season and atmospheric temperature. In addition, blood pressure is easily affected by mental stress or emotional ups and downs. It tends to increase when you feel tension or decrease when you are relaxed. Q What is the benefit of measuring my blood pressure at home? A Blood pressure measurements taken at home give reliable data as they can be taken when you are in a stable and relaxed condition. Physicians place considerable importance on blood pressure measurements taken at home. You should measure your blood pressure at the same time each day and record the variations in your blood pressure. 

Illustration of a person with arms crossed and pointing, holding a question mark (no text or symbols present)

 Always consult your physician for an interpretation of your blood pressure readings and to determine the proper treatment.
