3.Using the Monitor

An irregular heart- beat is a heartbeat rhythm that varies by more than 25% from the average heart- beat rhythm detected while the unit is mea- suring the systolic and diastolic blood pres- sure.

If such an irregular rhythm is detected more than twice dur-

ing measurement, the irregular heartbeat display appears on the dis- play when the measurement results are displayed.

If too many irregular rhythms are detected during measurement, the irregular heartbeat display ( ) appears but no measurement is dis- played.

What is Arrhythmia?

A heartbeat is stimulated by electrical signals that cause the heart to contract.

Arrhythmia is a condition where the heartbeat rhythm is abnormal due to flaws in the bio-electrical system that drives the heartbeat. Typical symptoms are skipped heartbeats, premature contraction, an abnormally rapid (tachycardia) or slow (bradycardia) pulse. This can be caused by heart disease, aging, physical predisposition, stress, lack of sleep, fatigue etc. Arrhythmia can only be diagnosed by a doctor through a special examination.

Whether the appearance of irregular heartbeat display ( ) in the results indicates arrhythmia or not can only be determined by an examination and diagnosis by your doctor.

Warning:

If the irregular heartbeat display ( ) is shown frequently, please make your doctor aware of it. Conducting self-diagnosis and treat- ment based on measurement results is dangerous. Be sure to follow the instructions of your doctor.
