About Average Reading

The UA-789 provides an average blood pressure reading based on the total measurements stored in memory. When tak-

ing a measurement, the average blood pressure reading will appear and the number of measurements stored in memory will flash several times before the cuff begins to inflate. The average blood pressure reading will also appear briefly when you recall the measurements stored in memory.

About Pressure Rating Indicator™

The Pressure Rating Indicator™ is a feature which provides a snapshot of your blood pressure clas- sification based on your measurements. This will let you quickly know what your blood pressure readings mean. Each segment of the bar indica-

tor corresponds to the Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee (JNC7) on Prevention, Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood Pressure from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute - May 2003. For a more detailed

look at this blood pressure classification, please refer to “Assessing High Blood Pressure” on page E-16.

:The indicator displays a segment, based on the current measure- ment, corresponding to the JNC7 Classification.

NOTE: Due to other risk factors (e.g. diabetes, obesity, smoking, etc.) in addition to your blood pressure measurement, the Pressure Rating Indicator is approximate. Please con- sult with your physician for interpretation and diagnosis of your blood pressure measure- ments.

NOTE: Residents outside of the United States (e.g.. Canada and Mexico) should refer to the WHO Classification Table on page E-16 for assessment of their blood pressure mea- surement.
