Please remember that only a medical practitioner is qualified to inter- pret your blood pressure measurements. Use of this device should not replace regular medical examinations.

Have your physician review your procedure for using this device. He or she will want to verify blood pressure measurements before pre- scribing or adjusting medications.

Consult your physician if you have any doubt about your readings. Should a mechanical problem occur, contact A&D Medical.
