1. Introduction

1.1. Features of your blood pressure monitor

This blood pressure monitor, with integrated time/date display, is a fully auto-

matic, digital blood pressure measuring device for use on the wrist. It enables

very fast and reliable measurement of the systolic and diastolic blood pressure

as well as pulse by way of the oscillometric method of measuring.

This device offers a very high degree of accuracy demonstrated through clinical

studies. It is also very easy to use.

Before using, please read through this instruction manual carefully

and then keep it in a safe place. For further questions on the subject of

blood pressure and its measurement, please contact your doctor.

Attention!

1.2. Important information about self-measurement

•Caution: Self measurement of blood pressure helps your health

care professional assist in the management of your blood pressure.

Unusual values must always be discussed with your doctor.Under

no circumstances should you alter the dosages of any drugs

prescribed by your doctor.

•The pulse display is not suitable for checking the functioning of heart

pacemakers!

•In cases of cardiac irregularity,measurements made

with this instrument should only be evaluated by your doctor.

Electromagnetic interference:

The device contains sensitive electronic components (Microcomputer).

Therefore, avoid strong electrical or electromagnetic fields in the direct vicinity

of the device, such as cellular telephones and microwave ovens. These

devices, when in operation close to your blood pressure monitor, can lead to

temporaryimpairment of the measuring accuracy.

2. Important information on blood pressure and its measurement

2.1. How does high/low blood pressure arise?

Your level of blood pressure is determined in a part of the brain called the cir-

culatory center. This part of your brain responds to a situation through feedback

with the nervous system.To adjust the blood pressure, the strength and fre-

quency of the heart (Pulse) as well as the width of circulatory blood vessels is

altered. Blood vessel width is altered by fine muscles in the blood vessel walls.

The level of arterial blood pressure changes periodically during heart activity:

During blood ejection from the heart (Systole) the value is maximal (systolic

blood pressure value). At the end of the heart’s ‘rest period’, Diastole or dias-

tolic blood pressure value, blood pressure falls to a low value. Blood pressure

values must lie within certain normal ranges in order to prevent particular dis-

eases.

2.2 Which values are normal?

Blood pressure is too high if at rest, your diastolic pressure is above 90mmHg

and/or the systolic blood pressure is over 160mmHg. You should bring these

values to the attention of your doctor immediately. Long-term values at

this level endanger your health due to the associated advancing dam-

age to the blood vessels in your body.

Should the systolic blood pressure values lie between 140mmHg and

160mmHg and/or the diastolic blood pressure values between

90mmHg and 95mmHg, please consult your doctor, and check your

blood pressure regularly.

With blood pressure values that are too low, i.e. systolic values under

105mmHg and/or diastolic values under 60mmHg, please consult your

doctor.

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

pressure monitor is recommended. In this way you can detect possible changes

in your values early and react appropriately, in consultation with your physician.

If you are undergoing medical treatment to control your blood pressure, please

keep a record of your blood pressure levels by carrying out regular self-meas-

urements at specific times of the day. Show these values to your doctor.

Never use the results of your measurements to discontinue or inde-

pendently alter the drug doses prescribed by your doctor.

The following standards for assessing high blood pressure (without regard to age)

have been established by the National Institutes of Health JNC7.

☞Further information

• If your values are mostly standard under resting conditions but

exceptionally high under conditions of physical or psychological stress, it is

possible that you aresuffering from so-called “labile hypertension”. Please

consult your doctor if you suspect that this might be the case.

Warning:

•Diastolic blood pressure values above 120mmHg require immediate

medical treatment.

2.3. What can be done if your blood pressure values are consistently

high or low?

a) Please consult your doctor.

Increased blood pressure values (various forms of hypertension) are

associated with considerable health risks. The concernis the arterial

blood vessels of your body, which are endangered due to constriction

caused by deposits in the vessel walls. (Arteriosclerosis) This can and does

cause deficient supply of blood to important organs such as the heart,

brain, and muscles. Furthermore, with long-term continuously increased

blood pressure values, the heart will become structurally damaged.

Therearemany different causes of high blood pressure. We differentiate

between common primary(essential) hypertension, and secondary

hypertension. Secondary hypertension (high) can be related to specific

organ malfunctions. Please consult your doctor for information about the

possible origins of your own increased blood pressure values.

Lifestyle changes may assist in the reduction of a medically established

high blood pressure prevention. These lifestyle changes should be

practiced on a continual basis:

1. Eating habits

• Strive for a healthy weight corresponding to your age.

•Avoid excessive consumption of common salt.

(Many packed foods contain large amounts of salt.)

• Avoid fatty foods.

2. Previous illnesses

Consistently follow any medical instructions for treating previous illness

such as:

•Sugar Diabetes (Diabetes mellitus);

•Fat metabolism disorder, and;

•Gout.

3. Habits

• Smokers should give up smoking completely.

• If you drink alcohol, do so in moderate amounts only.

• Restrict your caffeine consumption (Coffee, coke, tea, chocolate, etc.).

4. Physical constitutioning:

• After a medical examination and clearance from your doctor, exercise

regularly.

• Choose sports which require stamina and avoid those which require

strength.

• Avoid reaching the limit of your performance.

•With previous illnesses and/or an age of over 40 years, please

consult your doctor before beginning your physical activities. Your

doctor will advise you regarding the physical activities that are

best for you.

3. Components of your blood pressure monitor

Your microlife wrist type blood pressure monitor consists of:

Cufffits wrist size 51/2”to 73/4”inches.
