18More Accurate by Using Step Valve Technology

The new Lumiscope 1140 Blood Pressure Monitor incorporates cutting-edge Step Valve Technology, resulting in greater measurement accuracy. Step valve technology uses an electronic valve system as opposed to the traditional mechanical valve system, allowing the monitor to analyze oscillations during measurement and adjust cuff pressure accordingly.

Adjustments in cuff pressure occur in steps and result in an audible ticking as the valve releases air from within the cuff.

Releasing pressure in steps allows the monitor to analyze oscillations within the cuff and evaluate them for accuracy. When the monitor does not detect oscillations for a particular step, it releases air pressure.

If the monitor detects oscillations, it will continue to evaluate at that particular step until it confirms the accuracy of those oscillations.

The monitor's ability to detect and analyze oscillations at each step and adjust cuff pressure accordingly results in the monitor's increased measurement accuracy.
