10.2 Pregnancy

Blood pressure may change during
pregnancy. Regular blood pressure
monitoring is particularly important
if you have high blood pressure
because the elevated blood pres-
sure values may affect the develop-
ment of the foetus. Check with your
doctor whether and, if so, when
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com
you should carry out self-measure-
ment of blood pressure.
10.3 Diabetes, history of other
medical conditions
If you have diabetes or narrowed
blood vessels (arteriosclerosis) you
should consult your doctor before
carrying out self-measurement
because greatly deviating individual
measured values may occur in such
cases.
10.4 Arrhythmias, heart rhythm
disorders (cardiac arrhythmias),
cardiac pacemakers
Heart rhythm disorders (arrhyth-
mias) are disturbances of the nor-
mal rate or rhythm of the heart-
beat. A distinction should be made
between mild and severe heart
rhythm disorders. This can only be
determined by a special investiga-
tion carried out by a doctor.
Using Korotkoff's technology,
Tensoval duo control can detect
various types of heart rhythm disor-
ders and produce correct readings.
Severe heart rhythm disorders may
produce false measurements or
impair the measuring precision.
Please discuss with your doctor

whether self-measurement of blood
pressure is suitable for you.
Self-measurement of blood pressure
may fail in cardiac pacemaker
wearers, but the blood pressure
monitor itself has no impact on the
cardiac pacemaker. Please note that
the displayed pulse rate is not suit-
able for checking the rate of car-
diac pacemakers. Please check with
your doctor whether self-measure-
ment of blood pressure is advisable
if you are wearing a cardiac pace-
maker.
