Self-Measurement

• Blood pressuresthepressureofthebloodowinginthe

arteries generated by the pumping of the heart. Two values,

the systolic (upper) value and the diastolic (lower) value,

are always measured.

• Thedeviceindicatesthepulse rate (the number of times

the heart beats in a minute).

• Permanently high blood pressure values can damage

your health and must be treated by your doctor!

• Alwaysdiscussyourvalueswithyourdoctorandtellhim/her

if you have noticed anything unusual or feel unsure. Never

rely on single blood pressure readings.

• Thereareseveralcausesofexcessivelyhighbloodpressure

values. Your doctor will explain them in more detail and offer

treatment where appropriate. Besides medication, weight

loss and exercise can also lower your blood pressure.

• Undernocircumstancesshouldyoualterthedosages

of any drugs prescribed by your doctor!

• Dependingonphysicalexertionandcondition,bloodpressure

should therefore take your measurements in the same

quietconditionsandwhenyoufeelrelaxed! Take at

least two readings every time (in the morning and in the

evening) and average the measurements.

succession to produce signiﬁcantly different results.

•Deviations between measurements taken by your doctor or

in the pharmacy and those taken at home are quite normal,

as these situations are completely different.

• Several measurements provide much more reliable

information about your blood pressure than just one single

measurement.

• Leaveasmallbreak of at least 15 seconds between two

measurements.

• Ifyousufferfromanirregular heartbeat, measurements

taken with this device should be evaluated with your doctor.

• The pulse display is not suitable for checking the

 frequencyofheartpacemakers!

• Ifyouarepregnant, you should monitor your blood pressure

very closely as it can change drastically during this time!

This monitor is specially tested for use in pregnancy and

preeclampsia. When you detect unusual high readings in

pregnancy, you should measure again after 4 hours. If the

reading is still too high, consult your doctor or gynaeco-

logist.

Selecting the correct cuff

aponorm®by microlife offers different cuff sizes. Select the cuff

size to match the circumference of your upper arms (measured

by close ﬁtting in the centre of the upper arm).

The higher value is the one that determines the evaluation.

Example: a blood pressure value of 140/80 mmHg or a value of

130/90 mmHg indicates «blood pressure too high».

rements on a patients ﬁrst visit in order to determine which

arm to measure in the future. The arm with the higher blood

pressure should be measured.

4. Removeclose-ttinggarmentsfromtheupperarm.Toavoid

and the pressure falls gradually. If the required pressure was

not reached, the device will automatically pump some more

air into the cuff.

9. During the measurement, the pulse indicator 20 ashesin

the display.

10. The result, comprising the systolic 14 and the diastolic 15

blood pressure and the pulse rate 16 is displayed. Note also
