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.

Category	Systolic (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 29 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 GentleInflate™ technology to detect your blood pressure. With one touch of a button, the monitor automatically takes the reading during inflation, then deflates, delivering a quick, comfortable and quiet measurement every time.

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.

Before measurement, it is suggested that you sit quietly for 15 minutes before measurement as measurements taken in a relaxed state have greater accuracy. The Rest Assure Function provides a helpful countdown of the last 5 minutes of this suggested time*. Refer to page 16 for more information on this feature.

The Triple-Check (Multi-Read) Function automatically takes and averages three readings for accuracy you can trust. Refer to page 16 for more information on this feature.

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 29 for more information on this feature.

The appearance of the IHB icon indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during measurement. Refer to page 30 for more information on the Irregular Heartbeat Detector.

USING THE ULTRASOFT™ UPPER ARM CUFF

Very Important:

Proper cuff size is critical to accurate measurement.

This monitor comes with one UltraSoft™ Upper Arm Cuff that fits arm sizes 9"-17" (23cm - 43cm).

The appropriate cuff is suitable for your use if the colored arrow falls within the solid color line as shown below.

1. If the cuff is not assembled, pass the end of the cuff furthest away from the tubing through the metal D-ring in order to form a loop. The smooth side without the felt material should be on the inside of the cuff loop.

1. Plug the cuff tube into the left side of the unit.

1. Open the arm cuff so that your arm may be placed through it.

2. Remove tight fitting clothing from your upper left arm so that the cuff can be wrapped around your exposed arm.

3. Position cuff edge 34 -1 14 inches (2-3 cm) above elbow.

4. Center tube over middle of arm.

5. Pull the end of the cuff so that it tightens evenly around your arm. Press the hook and loop material together to secure. Allow room for 2 fingers to fit between the cuff and your arm.

6. Lay your arm on a table (palm upward) so the cuff is at the same height as your heart. Make sure the tube is not kinked.

Note:

- This device should not be used when your arm is injured or wounded.

- If it is not possible to fit the cuff on your left arm, it can also be placed on your right arm. However, all measurements should be made using the same arm.

- To use on the right arm, you must position the artery symbol “Φ” over the main artery. Locate the main artery by pressing with two fingers approximately 1” (2 cm) above the bend of your elbow on the inside of your right arm. Identify where the pulse can be felt the strongest. This is your main artery.

RISK CATEGORY INDEX

This monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category Index that automatically compares each reading to defined levels established by the U.S. National Institutes of Health's (NIH) National Heart Lung and Blood Institute as described earlier in this manual, and provides a helpful cue if your reading falls into one of the stages that could potentially indicate increased risk. 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.

Stage 2 Hypertension

Prehypertension

Stage 1 Hypertension

Normal (No Symbol)

IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT DETECTOR (IHB)

The appearance of the IHB 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

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 IHB icon 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.

USING THE MEMORY FUNCTION

This monitor can be used by 2 users. Each user can store up to 120 measurements.

This monitor features an advanced memory mode to provide you with a variety of options for reviewing your measurement history, including AM/PM Averaging. Reviewing your morning (AM) and nighttime (PM) measurements can provide important information about how your blood pressure changes throughout the day.

	Displays average of last three readings.
	Displays average of last 3 morning readings.(AM is defined as 4:00 AM – 12:00 PM).
	Displays average of last 3 nighttime readings.(PM is defined as 6:00 PM – 2:00 AM).
	Indicates reading is an average of a Triple-Check measurement. Press the + button to review individual readings that make up the Triple-Check average.

Note:

A Triple-Check average and the 3 measurements that make this average, count as 4 readings when stored in memory.

To use the memory function:

1. Press the USER-SELECT button to select User 1 or User 2.

1. Press the M button to access memory.

1. The monitor will first display the calculated average applied to the last 3 memories.

• Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communication equipment and the device.
  The device is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment where radiated RF disturbances are under control. User can help prevent electromagnetic interference by keeping the device at a minimum distance from portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters). Below table details the maximum output power of transmitter:

Rated maximum output power of transmitter W	Separation distance according to frequency of transmitter m
	150 kHz to 80 MHzd = 1.2	80 MHz to 800 MHzd = 1.2	800 MHz to 2.5 GHzd = 2.3
