?HOW UB-328 WORKS

LifeSource® blood pressure monitors are easy to use, accurate and digitally display full measurement readouts. Our technology is based on the "oscillometric method" – a noninvasive blood pressure determination. The term "oscillation" refers to any measure of vibrations caused by the arterial pulse. Our monitor examines the pulsatile pressure generated by the arterial wall as it expands and contracts against the cuff with each heartbeat.

The cuff is inflated until the artery is fully blocked. The inflation speed is maximized and the pressure level is optimized by the device. The monitor takes measurements while the cuff is both inflating and deflating. This results in a faster measurement providing greater comfort to the user.

BEFORE YOU START

The UB-328 provides accurate readings on wrists with a circumference between 5.3 and 7.7" (13.5 and 19.5 cm).

The unit requires two "AAA" (1.5 volt) batteries to operate (alkaline batteries recommended). To install batteries (or to replace when "Low Battery" symbol appears), proceed as follows:

1.Slide the battery cover as shown to remove

from the device

2. Insert batteries into designated areas ensuring a correct match with positive (+) and negative (-) terminals.

3. Return battery cover by sliding back on to monitoring device.

NOTE: Rechargeable batteries will not work with this monitor.

UB-328 specifications

The LifeSource UB-328 is a prominent digital blood pressure monitor that symbolizes innovation in home health care devices. Recognized for its precision and user-friendly design, the UB-328 offers a combination of advanced technology and essential features, making it a preferred choice for individuals seeking to monitor their blood pressure effectively.

One of the standout features of the LifeSource UB-328 is its advanced oscillometric technology. This technology measures blood pressure by detecting the vibrations of blood flow through the arteries. Unlike manual methods, oscillometric monitoring is quick, reliable, and requires minimal effort from the user. This ensures that individuals can obtain accurate readings from the comfort of their homes, making it an appealing option for those managing hypertension or other related conditions.

The device is engineered with a large, easy-to-read digital display that clearly shows blood pressure measurements and pulse rate. This feature is particularly beneficial for older adults or those with vision impairments. Additionally, the UB-328 incorporates a memory function, which allows users to store up to 30 readings. This capability enables users to track their blood pressure trends over time and share the information with healthcare providers for better management of their health.

Furthermore, the LifeSource UB-328 comes with an automatic inflation system, ensuring a comfortable and consistent experience during measurements. The cuff is designed to fit a wide range of arm sizes, promoting proper fit and accuracy in readings. It also features a hypertension indicator, alerting users when their readings fall into a potentially risky range.

A notable safety feature of the UB-328 is its irregular heartbeat detection. This function alerts users to potential heart rhythm irregularities, encouraging them to consult a healthcare professional if necessary. Such proactive monitoring is essential for individuals who need to be vigilant about their cardiovascular health.

In conclusion, the LifeSource UB-328 blood pressure monitor is a sophisticated device that combines user-friendly operation with advanced measurement technologies. Its accuracy, functionality, and design cater to a diverse user base, all while promoting proactive health management. Whether for routine monitoring or as part of a larger health care plan, the UB-328 stands out as a reliable tool for maintaining optimal health.
