1 Safety Information

WARNING

Do not take any therapeutic measures based

on your own measurements! Never change

the quantity of medication prescribed by your

doctor!

1.1 Tips for your well being

• Irregularity of pulse or arrhythmia can lead to difficulties in recording a correct

reading when measurements are taken using oscillometric blood pressure devices.

• If you should suffer from conditions such as arterial occlusive disease, please

consult your doctor before using the unit.

• The unit may not be used to check the heart rate of patients with a pacemaker.

• Pregnant patients should take their own personal state of health into

consideration and take all necessary precautions before using the unit. If in

doubt, consult your doctor.

• Should you experience discomfort or other complaints during measurement, for

example pain in the upper arm, please take the following action: Press the

START button to deflate the cuff immediately. Loosen the cuff and remove

it from your arm. Please contact either your dealer or MEDISANA directly.

• Patients with a weak pulse wave should raise their arm and open and close their

hand around 10 times before taking a reading. This exercise optimizes the pulse

wave and the measuring process.

1.2 Important considerations

• The unit is only to be used for the specific purpose described in this instruction

imanual.

• Any misuse will void the warranty.

• On the rare occasion of a fault causing the cuff to remain fully inflated during

measurement, open the cuff immediately.

• Do not use the unit near to equipment emitting a strong electric or magnetic

field, such as radios. This may impair the correct functioning of the unit.

• This device is not designed to be used by persons (including children) with

limited physical, sensory or mental abilities, or by persons with insufficient

experience and/or knowledge, unless under observation by a person responsible

for their safety, or unless they have been instructed in the use of the device.

• Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the device.

• If a fault occurs, do not try to repair the unit yourself. Attempts to do so will void

the warranty. Refer all servicing to authorized service personnel.

• Protect the unit from moisture. Should moisture enter the unit, remove the

batteries and stop using it immediately. In this case, please contact either your

dealer or MEDISANA directly. You can find details of how to contact us on the

address page.

2 Useful Information

Thank you very much

Thank you for your confidence in us and congratulations on your purchase! You

have acquired a quality product with your purchase of the MEDISANA MTP upper

arm blood pressure monitor. To ensure the best results and long-term satisfaction

with your MEDISANA MTP blood pressure monitor, we recommend that you read

the following operating and maintenance instructions carefully.

2.1 Items supplied and packaging

Please check first of all that the device is complete and is not damaged in any way.

In case of doubt, do not use it and contact your dealer or your service centre.

Send it to a service point.

The following parts are included:

• 1 MEDISANA Blood pressure monitor MTP

• 1 Cuff with air hose

• 4 Batteries (AA type, LR 6) 1,5V

• 1 Storage bag

• 1 Instruction manual

The packaging can be reused or recycled. Please dispose properly of any packaging

material no longer required. If you notice any transport damage during unpacking,

please contact your dealer without delay.

WARNING

Please ensure that the polythene packing is kept

away from the reach of children! Risk of suffocation!

2.2 What is blood pressure?

Blood pressure is the pressure created in the blood vessels by each heart beat. When

the heart contracts (= systole) and pumps blood into the arteries, it brings about a

rise in pressure. The highest value is known as the systolic pressure and is the first

value to be measured.

When the cardiac muscle relaxes to take in fresh blood, the pressure in the arteries

also falls. Once the arteries are relaxed, a second reading is taken – the diastolic

pressure.

2.3 How is blood pressure measured?

The MTP is a blood pressure unit which is used to measure blood pressure at the

upper arm. The measurement is carried out by a microprocessor, which, via a

pressure sensor, measures the vibrations resulting from the inflation and deflation

of the cuff over the artery.

2.4 Why should you take your blood pressure at home?

MEDISANA has had many years of experience in the field of blood pressure

measurement. The high precision of MEDISANA devices has been confirmed by

extensive clinical tests, carried out according to strict international standards. One

strong argument in favour of taking blood pressure at home is the fact that the

readings are taken in familiar surroundings under relaxed conditions. The most

important reading is the socalled „baseline value“, the one taken before breakfast,

directly after getting up in the morning. As far as it is possible, you should always

try to take your blood pressure at the same time and under the same conditions

each day.

This ensures comparable results and helps in detecting the first signs of high blood

pressure. If high blood pressure remains undetected, it increases the risk of further

cardiovascular diseases.

THEREFORE WE RECOMMEND:

Take a blood pressure reading daily and on a regular

basis, even if you are experiencing no apparent

complaints.

2.5 Blood pressure classification

The following table shows the classification of high and low blood pressure, with-

out taking age into consideration. This blood pressure assessment scale corresponds

to the guidelines of the World Health Organisation (WHO).

Low blood pressure Normal blood pressure

systolic <100 systolic 100 – 139

diastolic <60 diastolic 60 – 89

Types of high blood pressure

mild medium serious

hypertension hypertension hypertension

systolic 140 – 159 systolic 160 – 179 systolic >_180

diastolic 90 – 99 diastolic 100 – 109 diastolic >_110

WARNING

Blood pressure that is too low represents just as

great a health risk as blood pressure that is too high!

Fits of dizziness may lead to dangerous situations

arising (e.g. on stairs or in traffic)!

2 Useful Information / 3 Getting Started

2.6 Fluctuations in blood pressure

There are many factors that can influence blood pressure. Readings can be affected

seriously by stress, fear, heavy physical exertion or the time of day at which the

measurements are taken. Your personal blood pressure values are subject to consi-

derable fluctuation during the course of the day and the year. These fluctuations

are particularly pronounced in the case of patients suffering from hypertension.

Blood pressure is usually at its highest during physical exertion and at its lowest at

night when you are asleep.

2.7 Influencing and evaluating readings

• Measure your blood pressure several times, then record and compare the results.

Do not draw any conclusions from a single reading.

• Your blood pressure readings should always be evaluated by a doctor who is also

familiar with your personal medical history. When using the unit regularly and

recording the values for your doctor, you should visit the doctor from time to time

to keep him updated.

• When taking readings, remember that the daily values are influenced by several

factors. Smoking, consumption of alcohol, drugs and physical exertion influence

the measured values in various ways.

• Measure your blood pressure before meals.

• Before taking readings, allow yourself at least five minutes rest.

• If the systolic and diastolic readings seem unusual (too high or too low) on seve-

ral occasions, despite correct use of the unit, please inform your doctor. This also

applies to the rare occasions when an irregular or very weak pulse prevents you

from taking readings.

3 Getting Started

WARNING

BATTERY SAFETY INFORMATION

• Do not disassemble batteries!

• Remove discharged batteries from the device

immediately!

• Increased risk of leakage, avoid contact with skin,

eyes and mucous membranes! If battery acid comes

in contact with any of these parts, rinse the affec

ted area with copious amounts of fresh water and

seek medical attention immediately!

• If a battery has been swallowed seek medical

attention immediately!

• Replace all of the batteries simultaneously!

• Only replace with batteries of the same type,

never use different types of batteries together

or used batteries with new ones!

• Insert the batteries correctly, observing the

polarity!

• Remove the batteries from the device if it is not

going to be used for an extended period!

•Keep batteries out of children's reach!

• Do not attempt to recharge these batteries! There

is a danger of explosion!

• Do not short circuit! There is a danger of explosion!

• Do not throw into a fire! There is a danger of

explosion!

• Do not throw used batteries into the household

refuse; put them in a hazardous waste container

or take them to a battery collection point, at the

shop where they were purchased!

3.2 Using a Mains Adaptor

Alternatively, you can use the unit with a special mains adaptor (MEDISANA

Art.–No. 51036) This connects to the socket provided at the back of the unit.

In this case the batteries remain in the unit.

Inserting the connector into the back of the blood pressure monitor switches the

batteries off mechanically. It is necessary, therefore, to plug the mains adaptor into

the mains socket first of all and then to connect it to the blood pressure monitor.

If the blood pressure monitor is no longer being used, first remove the connector

from the blood pressure monitor and then pull the mains adaptor out of the mains

socket. Doing this means that the date and time will not have to be reset each

time.

The display showing the year will flash after inserting the batteries for the first

time. Set the date and time as described in 3.3 Set Date and Time. Please note

that the date and time will have to be reset each time new batteries are inserted.

Previously stored results will be lost.
