5.5. Irregular Heartbeat Detector

This symbol indicates that certain pulse irregularities were
detected during the measurement. In this case, the result may deviate
f rom your normal basal blood pre s s u re – repeat the measurement. In
most cases, this is no cause for concern. However, if the symbol
appears on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with
m e a s u rements taken daily), we advise you to tell your doctor. Please
show your doctor the following explanation:
I n f o rmation for the doctor on frequent appearance of the Irregular Heartbeat Symbol
This instrument is an oscillometric blood pre s s u re monitor device that also analyzes pulse
f requency during measurement. The instrument is clinically tested.
If pulse irregularities occur during measurement, the irregular heartbeat symbol is displayed
after the measurement. If the symbol appears more frequently (e.g. several times per week on
m e a s u rements perf o rmed daily) or if it suddenly appears more often than usual, we
recommend the patient to seek medical advice.
The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse
i rregularities at an early stage.
