ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against the walls of the arteries. Systolic
pressure occurs when the heart contracts. Diastolic pressure occurs when the heart
expands.
Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One's natural blood
pressure is represented by the fundamental pressure, which is measured first thing
in the morning while one is still at rest and before eating.
Hypertension, an abnormally high arterial blood pressure, if left unattended,
can cause many health problems including stroke and heart attack.
Hypertension can be controlled by altering lifestyle, avoiding stress and with
medication under a doctor's supervision.
To prevent hypertension or keep it under control:

PRECAUTIONS BEFORE USE
hypertensive individuals, variations are
even more pronounced.
Normally, the blood pressure rises while
at work or play and falls to its lowest
levels during sleep. Thus, do not be overly
concerned by the results of one
measurement.
Take measurements at the same time every
day using the procedure described in this
manual, and know your normal blood pressure.
Many readings give a more comprehensive
blood pressure history.
Be sure to note date and time when recording your blood pressure. Consult your
doctor to interpret your blood pressure data.
2. What is hypertension and how is it controlled?
Do not smoke Exercise regularly
Reduce salt and fat intake Have regular physical checkups

otherwise it could cause loss of function.
6.Consult your doctor if unexpected readings are obtained. Please also refer
to the “Troubleshooting” section of the manual.
7.Readings done at home are generally a little lower than hospital measurements
due to the steady mood at home.
8.Cuff pressure range is 0-299mmHg
Organization (WHO), and are
shown on the chart to the right:
5. Blood pressure variations
An individual's blood pressure varies
greatly on a daily and seasonal basis.
It may vary by 30 to 50 mmHg due to
various conditions during the day. In
3. Why measure blood pressure at home?
Blood pressure measured at a clinic or doctor's office may cause apprehension
and produce an elevated reading, 25 to 30 mmHg higher than that measured at
home. Home measurement reduces the effects of outside influences on blood
pressure readings, supplements the doctor's readings and provides a more
accurate, complete blood pressure history.
