HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE

MONITOR WORKS

This monitor uses innovative technology to detect your blood pressure. This technology enables the monitor to automatically inflate and deflate at the appropriate level for each individual. With one touch of a button, the cuff will automatically inflate to block the blood flow through your artery. Next, the deflation process starts. Please note that any muscle movement during inflation or deflation will cause measurement error. When measurement is complete, the monitor will display your systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse readings.

The monitor automatically finds where your measurement results fall on the NIH’s National Heart Lung and Blood Institute’s table and provides a cue if your reading falls into one of the stages that could potentially indicate increased risk. Please refer to page 17 for more information on this feature.
