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.
