INTRODUCTION
General Description
This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring method to detect
blood pressure. Before every measurement, the unit establishes a
“zero pressure” equivalent to the atmospheric pressure. Then it
starts inflating the arm cuff, meanwhile, the unit detects pressure
oscillations generated by beat-to-beat pulsatile, which is used to
determine the systolic and diastolic pressure, and also pulse rate.
Measurement Principle
The signs below might be in the user manual, labeling or other
components. They are the requirement of standard and use.

What are systolic pressure and
diastolic pressure?
When ventricles contract and pump blood out of the heart, the
blood pressure reaches its maximum value in the cycle, which is
called systolic pressure. When the ventricles relax, the blood
pressure reaches its minimum value in the cycle, which is called
diastolic pressure.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE
CAUTION

Why does my blood pressure
fluctuate throughout the day?
Why do I get a different blood
pressure at home compared to the
hospital?
1. Individual blood pressure varies multiple times every day. It is also
affected by the way you tie your cuff and your
measurement position, so please take
the measurement under the same
conditions.
2. If the person takes medicine, the
pressure will vary more.
3. Wait at least 3 minutes for
another measurement.
The blood pressure is different even throughout the day due to
weather, emotion, exercise, etc. Also, there is the “white coat”
effect, which means blood pressure usually increases in clinical
settings.
What you need to pay attention to when you measure your blood
pressure at home:
If the cuff is tied properly. If the cuff is too tight or too loose. If the
cuff is tied on the upper arm. If you feel anxious. Taking 2-3 deep
breaths before beginning will be better for measuring.
Advice: Relax yourself for 4-5 minutes until you calm down.

An irregular heartbeat is detected when a heartbeat rhythm varies
while the device is measuring systolic pressure and diastolic pressure.
During each measurement, blood pressure monitor will keep a record
of all the pulse intervals and calculate the average value of them. If
there are two or more pulse intervals, the difference between each
interval and the average is more than the average value of ±25%, or
there are four or more pulse intervals, the difference between each
interval and the average is more than the average value of ±15%, then
the irregular heartbeat symbol will appear on the display with the
measurement result.
CAUTION
The appearance of the IHB icon indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent
with an irregular heart-beat 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.

Is the result the same if measuring
on the right arm?
It is ok for both arms, but there
will be some different results for
different people. We suggest you
measure the same arm every
time.
