HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE
MONITOR WORKS
This monitor uses innovative technology to detect your blood
pressure. This technology enables the monitor to automatically
inflate and deflate at the appropriate level for each individual.
With one touch of a button, the cuff will automatically inflate
to block the blood flow through your artery. Next, the deflation
process starts. Please note that any muscle movement during
inflation or deflation will cause measurement error. When
measurement is complete, the monitor will display your systolic
pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse readings.
The monitor automatically finds where your measurement results
fall on the NIH's National Heart Lung and Blood Institute's table
and provides a cue if your reading falls into one of the stages that
could potentially indicate increased risk. See page 22 for more
information on this feature.
The appearance of the icon indicates that a pulse
irregularity consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected
during measurement. Refer to page 23 for more information on the
Irregular Heartbeat Detector.
