ABOUT AVERAGE READING

The UA-787 provides an average blood pressure reading based on the total measurements stored in memory. When taking 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 pro- vides a snapshot of your blood pressure classification based on your measurements. This will let you quickly know what your blood pressure readings mean. Each segment of the bar indicator 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 measurement, 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 consult with your physician for interpretation and diagnosis of your blood pressure measurements.

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 measurement.
