IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT

DETECTOR (IHB)

The appearance of the icon indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular heartbeat was detected during measurement. Usually this is not a cause for concern. However, if the symbol appears often, we recommend you seek medical advice. Please note that the device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.

Movement, shaking

or talking during

the measurement can result in pulse

irregularities that may cause the

appearance of this icon. Therefore,

it is of great importance to not move or talk during measurement.

To determine the presence of an irregular heartbeat, the average of the heartbeat intervals is calculated with the first 3 normal heartbeat values. It is important to note that the average is not a strict mathematical averaging of all recorded intervals. At least 3 beats with 25% or greater difference from the average heartbeat interval

will generate theicon on the screen.
