WHAT IS AN IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT

The UA-774 Blood Pressure Monitor provides a blood pressure and pulse rate measurement even when an irregular heartbeat occurs. An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies by 25% from the average of all heartbeat intervals during the blood pressure measurement. It is important that you relax, remain still and refrain from talking during measurements.

NOTE: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this symbol frequently.

ABOUT PRESSURE INDICATOR

The Pressure Indicator is located on the left side of the display screen to tell you when the blood pressure monitor is inflating and deflating the cuff. The indicator consists of a scale with six levels. The Pressure Indicator moves up during inflation and moves down during deflation.
