American Diagnostic Corporation (ADC) e-sphyg 7002 - Manual (Page 4)

Introduction
Blood pressure measurements determined with this device are equivalent to those obtained by a
trained observer using the auscultatory method, within the limits prescribed by the American Na-
tional Standards Institute, ANSI/AAMI/ISO 81060-1: 2007, Manual, Electronic, or Automated
Sphygmomanometers.
Your new ADC ® e-sphyg TM gauge provides you with all of the functionality of a traditional aneroid
gauge, with none of the problems associated with these mechanical devices. Using state of the
art technology, your e-sphyg TM gauge will provide you with performance and reliability exceeding
the most popular aneroid models. While traditional mechanical gauges can be easily knocked out
of calibration when dropped, your digital gauge will remain accurate even when subjected to
rough treatment. With its helpful on-screen calibration reminder, you will be able to use your new
digital gauge with confidence and with the knowledge that it will remain calibrated beyond the
lifespan of a more traditional mechanical gauge.
Your digital e-sphyg TM aneroid also has several features not available in a more traditional me-
chanical gauge. The systolic assist function will give you a visual alert when you are approaching
the patient’s estimated systolic pressure, allowing you to focus your attention to detect the begin-
nings of phase 1 Korotkoff sounds. The digital gauge will also monitor the patient’s pulse during
the measurement process, and display this information onscreen for you to record.
We hope you enjoy the convenience and accuracy of your new digital e-sphyg TM gauge. Using
state-of-the-art technology, your e-sphyg TM will provide digital accuracy with tank-like reliability.
Intended Use
ADC ® aneroid, digital aneroid, and mercurial sphygmomanometers are used by professional
healthcare providers and individuals trained in auscultatory blood pressure technique to deter-
mine systolic and diastolic pressure in humans.
WARNINGS
A warning statement in this manual identifies a condition or practice which, if not corrected or
discontinued immediately could lead to patient injury, illness, or death.
NOTE: Systolic Assist and pulse measurement functions are NOT motion tolerant.
(Pressure readings ARE). In a dynamic environment, systolic assist and pulse rate
display may not operate correctly.
Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician or li-
censed healthcare practitioner.
Caution: Leaking batteries can damage the unit.
Caution: Remove the batteries when the unit will not be used for an extended period
of time.
Caution: Your digital aneroid is a medical device designed for use by trained medical profes-
sionals. Keep out of the reach of children.
