About Blood Pressure

this mystery that hypertension has been named “the silent killer.” Don’t let it sneak up on you! Start monitoring your blood pressure every day with your new Healthy Living monitor.

Why Is It Important To Control My Blood Pressure?

Left uncontrolled, hypertension can place an incredible amount of stress on your heart and arteries, both of which become forced to work harder to keep blood flowing in a healthy manner throughout the body. Over time, this stress may result in health problems including over-enlargement of the heart, loss of ela ticity of the arteries, heart disease, stroke and even death. Making some simple lifestyle changes now may help you to stay healthy in the future.

Intended Use

Healthy Living blood pressure monitors are convenient for home use. They are noninvasive, meaning no part of the monitor enters your body, and provide systolic, diastolic, and pulse mea- surements. Healthy Living monitors are recommended for use by people over the age of 18 and are not suitable for clinical use.

Measurement Method

Healthy Living monitors measure blood pressure and pulse by using what’s called an oscillometric method, meaning they mea- sure the fluctuations in pressure. This is done by first wrapping a fitted cuff around the upper arm. The monitor then automati- cally fills the cuff with air creating pressure around the arteries inside of the arm. Mounted inside of the cuff is a special gauge that is capable of sensing the small oscillations (fluctuations) in pressure. These fluctuations are produced as a result of the pressure the cuff has placed around the arm and are, in a basic sense, the arteries contracting (getting larger and smaller) with each heart beat. The monitor then measures how high and how quickly these contractions occur and converts that information into a digital value. A special valve, called an electrode, deflates the monitor automatically when the measurement is complete.
