RISK CATEGORY INDEX

This monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category Index
that automatically compares each reading to defined
levels established by the U.S. National Institutes of
Health's (NIH) National Heart Lung and Blood Institute
as described earlier in this manual, and provides a
helpful cue if your reading falls into one of the stages
that could potentially indicate increased risk. No cue is
given if the reading falls in the normal range as defined
by NIH. Please note that cues provided by this monitor
are only intended to assist you in using this table. The
table and cues are only provided for convenience to
help you understand your non-invasive blood pressure
reading as it relates to the NIH information. They are not
a substitute for a medical examination by your physician.
It is important for you to consult with your physician
regularly. Your physician will tell you your normal blood
pressure range as well as the point at which you may
actually be considered to be at risk.
