1. INTRODUCTION
The MEDEL ELITE upper arm blood pressure monitor is used to carry out non-invasive
measurement and monitoring of the arterial blood pressure values in adults.
This allows you to quickly and easily measure your blood pressure, save the measured
values and display the development and average values of the measured values taken.
You are also warned of possible existing cardiac arrhythmia. Medel ELITE is a device
suitable for home healthcare environment.
