Lack of haemodynamic stability
It is very probable that the systolic and diastolic blood pres-
sures have been measured whilst the patient was not at rest
and the measurements therefore deviate from the blood
pressure at rest. Repeat the measurement after a minimum
period of 5 minutes' rest and relaxation. Go to a sufficiently
quiet and comfortable spot and remain there calmly; close
your eyes, breathe deeply and evenly and try to relax. If
the next measurement also shows insufficient stability, you
can repeat the measurement after another resting period.

If the measurements continue to show some instability,

identify these blood pressure measurements as having been
taken when the circulatory system had not been sufficiently
rested. In this case, nervousness or inner anxiety may be
the cause and this cannot be cured by brief periods of rest.
Existing cardiac arrhythmias may also prevent a stable
blood pressure measurement. A lack of resting blood pres-
sure can have various causes, such as physical or mental
strain or distraction, speaking or experiencing cardiac
arrhythmias during the blood pressure measurement. In
an overwhelming number of cases, the HSD diagnosis will
give a very good guide as to whether the circulatory system
is rested when taking the measurement. Certain patients
suffering from cardiac arrhythmia or chronic mental condi-
tions can remain haemodynamically unstable in the long
term, something which persists even after repeated periods
of rest. The accuracy of the blood pressure at rest results
is reduced in these users. Like any medical measurement
method, the precision of the HSD diagnosis is limited and
can lead to incorrect results in some cases. The blood pres-
sure measurements taken when the circulatory system was
at rest represent particularly reliable results.
Saving, accessing and deleting measured values
The results of every successful measurement are stored
together with the date and time. If there are more than
30 measurements, the oldest measurements are lost.
• Press the memory button M. Select the desired user
memory ( ... ) by pressing the memory button M
again.
• If you press the function button +, the average value of
all the stored measured values in the user memory will be
displayed. If you press the function button + again, the
average value of the morning measurements for the last
7 days will be displayed (morning: 5 am – 9 am, display
). If you press the function button + again, the average
value of the evening measurements for the last 7 days will
be displayed (evening: 6 pm – 8 pm, display
continue to press the function button +, the most recent
individual measured values are displayed in turn with the
date and time.
