• Any cuff related blood pressure measurement in high
repetition rates, can lead to severe measurement side
effects, e.g.
– any nerv compression with temporary arm/hand par-
alysis
– the release of an arterial or venous thrombus, which
can cause a life threatening situation.
• Please contact your physician about the specific risks
of cuff pressure in your specific case.

cardiac examination, but may help to detect potential
pulse irregularities at an early stage. Always consult
your physician to determine what will be suitable for

diagnosing or treating an arrhythmic disorder. Arrhyth-
mia can only be ascertained by a licensed physician.

pressure measurements, consult your physician im-
mediately.
• Women who underwent a breast or axillar lymph node
removal operation should consult a physician or li-
censed healthcare provider before starting blood pres-
