How the UA-851THW Works

A&D Medical's blood pressure monitors are easy to use, accurate
and digitally display full measurement readouts. Our technology is
based on the "oscillometric method" – a noninvasive blood pressure
determination. The term "oscillation" refers to any measure of
vibrations caused by the arterial pulse. Our monitor examines the
pulsatile pressure generated by the arterial wall as it expands and
contracts against the cuff with each heartbeat.
The cuff is inflated until the artery is fully blocked. The inflation speed
is maximized and the pressure level is optimized by the device. The
monitor takes measurements while the cuff is both inflating and
deflating. This results in a faster measurement providing greater
comfort to the user.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The ActiLink USB Transceiver will not work when plugged
into a computer in sleep, suspend, or hibernation mode
IMPORTANT NOTE: The range of the UA-851THW may be affected by walls,
materials around or between the UA-851THW and ActiLink, and other
environmental factors.

About Cuff Inflation Meter

The Cuff Inflation Meter is located on the left side of the display screen
to tell you when the blood pressure monitor is inflating and deflating
the cuff. The Cuff Inflation Meter moves up during inflation and moves
down during deflation.
