Important Product and Safety Information

Follow Instructions for Use. This document provides

important product operation and safety information

regarding this Blood Pressure Monitor. Please read

this document thoroughly before using the device

and keep for future reference.

This blood pressure monitor is an automatic digital blood

pressure measuring device for use by adults on the upper arm at

home or in the doctor’s office. It enables a very fast and reliable

measurement of the systolic and diastolic blood pressure, as

well as the pulse rate, by way of the oscillometric method. This

device detects the appearance of irregular heartbeats during

measurement and provides a warning signal when the irregular

heartbeat is detected.

This blood pressure monitor IS intended to be used:

•For self-measurement/monitoring of blood pressure and pulse

in adults; whereas the person being measured may be the

user/operator of the device.

•Within a home healthcare environment.

•With a cuff located upon the user’s upper arm; ½inch above

the elbow over the artery as indicated on the cuff.

This blood pressure monitor IS NOT intended for use with:

• Pregnancy

• Preeclampsia

•Children under 12

•Neonatal patients

WARNING – Potentially hazardous situation that if

not avoided may result in serious injury or death.

1. Introduction

1.1. Your Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor

Thank you for purchasing a fully automatic blood pressure

monitor. Your monitor is designed to provide fast and reliable

digital readings of your pulse, and systolic / diastolic blood

pressure using the oscillometric method on your upper arm. It

offers clinically proven accuracy and has been designed to be

user friendly.

Before using your blood pressure monitor, please read this

instruction manual carefully to ensure correct use. If you have

additional questions regarding blood pressure measurements

please contact your doctor.

2. How is blood pressure measured?

2.1. What is blood pressure, and why does it fluctuate?

Your level of blood pressure is determined in the circulatory

center of the brain and adjusts to a variety of situations through

feedback from the nervous system. To adjust blood pressure,

the strength and frequency of

the heart (pulse), as well as the

width of circulatory blood vessels is altered. Blood vessel width

is affected by fine muscles in the blood vessel walls.

Your level of arterial blood pressure changes periodically during

heart activity. During the "blood ejection" (Systole), the value is

highest (systolic blood pressure value). At the end of the heart’s "rest

period" (Diastole), pressure is lowest (diastolic blood pressure value).

Blood pressure values must lie within certain normal ranges in

order to prevent particula

r diseases.

2.2. Measurement guidelines

Blood pressure is very high if your systolic blood pressure is

over 160 mmHg and/or your diastolic pressure is above 100

mmHg, while at rest. In this case, please consult your

physician immediately. Long-term values at this level endanger

your health due to continual damage to the blood vessels in

your body.

If your systolic blood pressure values are between 140 mmHg

and 159 mmHg and/or the diastolic blood pressure values are

between 90 mmHg and 99 mmHg, consult your physician.

Regular self-checks are necessary.

If you have blood pressure values that are too low (i.e., systolic

values under 105 mmHg and/or diastolic values under 60

mmHg), consult your physician.

Even with normal blood pressure values, a regular self-check

with your blood pressure monitor is recommended. You can detect

possible changes in your values early and react appropriately.

If you are undergoing medical treatment to control your blood

pressure, keep a record of values along with time of day and

date. Show these values to your physician. Never use the

results of your measurements

to independently alter the

medication prescribed by your physician.

Which values are normal?

The following standards for assessing high blood pressure (in

adults) have been established by the National Institutes of

Health JNC7, 2003.

Additional information

•If your values are mostly normal under resting conditions but

exceptionally high under conditions of physical or psychologi-

cal stress, it is possible that you are suffering from so-called

"labile hypertension." Consult your doctor.

Category Systolic Diastolic

(mmHg) (mmHg)

Normal <120 and <80

Pre-Hypertension 120-139 or 80-89

Hypertension

Stage 1 Hypertension 140-159 or 90-99

Stage 2 Hypertension ≥160 or ≥100

2.3. What can I do to change my blood pressure?

a) Consult your doctor.

b) Increased blood pressure values (various forms of hyperten-

sion) are associated with considerable health risks over time.

Arterial blood vessels in your body are endangered due to

constriction caused by deposits in the vessel walls

(arteriosclerosis). A deficient supply of blood to important

organs (heart, brain, muscles) can result from arteriosclero-

sis. Furthermore, the heart will become structurally damaged

with increased blood pressure values.

c) There are many different causes of high blood pressure. We

differentiate between the common primary (essential)

hypertension and secondary hypertension. The latter group

can be ascribed to specific organ malfunctions. Please

consult your doctor for information about the possible origins

of your own increased blood pressure values.

d) There are measures which you can take to reduce and even

prevent high blood pressure. These measures must be

permanent lifestyle changes.

1) Eating habits

•Strive for a normal weight corresponding to your age. See your

doctor for your ideal weight.

•Avoid excessive consumption of common salt.

•Avoid fatty foods.

2) Previous illnesses

•Consistently follow all medical instructions for treating

illness such as:

•Diabetes (diabetes mellitus)

•Fat metabolism disorder

• Gout

3) Habits

•Give up smoking completely.

•Drink only moderate amounts of alcohol.

•Restrict your caffeine consumption (e.g., coffee).
