Braun PrecisionSensor™ Pro is a blood pressure monitor that has been

developed for easy and accurate blood pressure measurements at the wrist.

The accuracy of the product has been tested at the time of manufacture.

Measurements can be saved.

For reliable measurements, blood pressure monitors should always be

positioned at an appropriate measuring position close to heart level.

The Braun PrecisionSensor™ Pro has an active positioning system

that guides the patient’s arm via arrows on the display to the medically

recommended measuring position close to the heart.

To ensure accurate results, carefully read these instructions.

Hypertension in the medical practice

Hypertension is considered a critical risk factor for a number of

cardiovascular related diseases. It is one of the main risk factors for stroke,

coronary heart disease, cardiac insufficiency and renal disease.

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that up to 20 % of the

world's adult populations has high blood pressure. The prevalence of

hypertension is even higher in the older population segments resulting in up

to 50 % of people affected.

These data reveal that blood pressure measurement plays a central role in

medical practice either as a screening method for undiagnosed individuals

or as treatment monitoring tool for diagnosed patients.

The importance of the blood pressure measurement in the doctor’s office

calls for a high performance standard with regard to quality and reliability of

the professional measuring device. Braun PrecisionSensor™ Pro has been

designed to meet these demanding requirements. The device guides the

user via arrows on the display to the medically recommended measuring

position close to the heart. In this way repeatable readings are achieved.

This watchdog feature allows patient self measurement in the doctor’s

office, which may be beneficial in reducing the problem of white coat

hypertension.

With its technical design, Braun PrecisionSensor™ Pro is the ideal

supplementary device for the doctor’s office.

Important

• Deviations in blood pressure values may occur with people suffering

from cardiac arrhythmia, angiostenosis, arteriosclerosis in the upper

extremities, diabetes or with patients with cardiac pacemakers. In case of

doubt, please carry out a comparative measurement with the stethoscope

method.

• The active positioning system was developed based on anthropological

studies conducted in Europe and is applicable for populations with

comparable conditions. The system guides the patient for repeatable

measuring positions.

• The cuff of this product is suitable for a wrist circumference between

5.3 and 7.8 inches (13.5 and 20 cm). Measuring deviations may occur if

patient’s wrist is not within this range.

• Patient’s self-measurement in the doctor’s office: Prior to the firstself-

measurement, it is necessary to instruct the patient how to use the

appliance correctly.

• Do not spill liquids on this device.

Inserting batteries

• Use only alkaline batteries of the type LR 03 (AAA)

(e.g. Duracell-Ultra) as supplied with this product.

• Remove the battery cover (F) and insert two

batteries with correct polarity (see symbol in the

battery compartment (E)).

• New batteries (e.g. Duracell-Ultra) will provide

approximately 300 measurements.

• Batteries should not be disposed of in the

household waste.

Key rules for accurate blood pressure

measurement

• Blood pressure should be measured on a seated

patient who has had a rest of approx. 3–5 minutes.

If indicated, a measurement can also be taken on

a person in supine position (refer to «Measurement

on a person in supine position»). During meas-

urement, the patient should not move, nor speak.

• Prior to the measurement, the patient should avoid

heavy physical exercise or mental stress.

• Avoid taking measurements within 60 minutes

after the patient has consumed alcohol or nicotine.

6059008_BP2590_S4-33 Seite 6 Montag, 26. November 2001 9:09 09

• If a patient takes antihypertensive, ask when it was

last taken.

• Wait approximately 3 minutes before repeating

a measurement.

Measuring

For accurate results, all blood pressure

measurements should be at the appropriate heart

level.

1. Fasten the monitor on the patient’s left arm

on the radial side of the forearm (see illustration).

Make sure the cuff (G) fits snug. Stand close to

the patient in a position so that you can easily

see the display and the control buttons. Press the

«I/0» button (C). An arrow appears on the right

hand side of the display (A). If there are readings

stored in the memory, «mem» appears in the lower

left corner of the display.

2. Help the patient to take the measuring position

as shown. The arms should remain close to the

body. Make sure the monitor is positioned

approximately at the person’s heart level.

Move the forearm of the patient up or down

(see illustration) in the direction of the arrow.

6059008_BP2590_S4-33 Seite 7 Montag, 26. November 2001 9:09 09

3. When a measuring position has been reached,

you will hear a tone and the display shows a heart

symbol. Both indicate that the appropriate

measuring position has been reached.

The measurement now starts automatically.

4. When the measurement is complete, a tone will

sound again, and the reading is displayed.

Upper (systolic) value

Lower (diastolic) value

Pulse

Additionally, on the upper display section, three

status boxes will appear to confirm that the

appropriate measuring position was kept during the

complete measuring process.

All three boxes should show «OK». If the following

symbols («

» = too high; «

» = too low) appear, the

appropriate measuring position was not maintained

and the measurement should be repeated.

Important

15 seconds after switching on the device, the

measuring process will start automatically, even if

the appropriate measuring position has not been

reached. If an appropriate position has not been

reached, the blood pressure reading may be

affected. If at any time you want to discontinue the

measurement, press the «I/0» button.

Memory

The blood pressure monitor can store up to

30 readings along with the above mentioned status

box information. Readings are stored automatically

after each measurement.

6059008_BP2590_S4-33 Seite 8 Montag, 26. November 2001 9:09 09

To recall stored readings, first switch off the device.

Then press the memory button (B). Repeatedly

pressing the memory button will call up one by one

all stored readings (including status box information).

The number in the upper left corner of the display

indicates the memory position (01 being the oldest,

30 the most recent).

Holding down the memory button for more than a

second will delete all memory data completely.

After clearing the memory, the monitor will turn off

automatically.

Turning off the monitor

Press the «I/0» button to turn the monitor off.

Otherwise the monitor will turn off automatically after

2 minutes.

Measurement on patients in supine position

When taking a reading on a patient in supine position

the appropriate measurement position close to heart

level of the Braun PrecisionSensor™ Pro device is

normally achieved automatically. The active

positioning system is not needed in this case.

In order to take a correct measurement the position

sensor should be switched off for the measurement

(refer to «Pre-setting the position sensor»).

Pre-setting the position sensor

The active positioning system of the appliance

allows accurate and repeatable blood pressure

measurements in the doctor’s office. Therefore, the

position sensor is activated in the pre-settings at

the time of manufacture. We recommend that you

keep it activated. In certain cases, such as

measurements on persons lying down, it may be

necessary to de-activate the position sensor.

For this purpose, you will find a select button (D)

underneath the battery compartment cover.

6059008_BP2590_S4-33 Seite 9 Montag, 26. November 2001 9:09 09

First turn off the monitor. Keep the select button

pressed, until a tone sounds. The display shows a

flashing «OK» next to the position sensor symbol (see

illustration).

If you wish to turn off the position sensor, press

the «I/0» button (C): The display changes from

«OK» (on) to «–» (off). Press the memory button to

confirm the new setting. Then the monitor turns off

automatically. In order to re-activate the position

sensor, follow the same steps as described above.
