What is 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.

What is the standard blood pressure classification?

The chart on the right is the standard blood pressure classification published by
American Heart Association (AHA).
AHA Home Guideline for
This chart reflects blood pressure categories defined by American Heart Association.
Upper Limit of Normal BP
Blood Pressure Category
SYS 135 mm Hg
DIA 85 mm Hg
Prehypertension
High Blood Pressure
(Hypertension) Stage 1
High Blood Pressure
(Hypertension) Stage 2
Hypertensive Crisis
(Emergency care needed)
CAUTION
Only a physician can tell your normal BP range. Please contact a physician if
your measuring result falls out of the range. Kindly note that only a physician
could tell whether your blood pressure value has reached a dangerous point.
Irregular Heartbeat Detector
This Blood Pressure Monitor is equipped with an intelligent function of Irregular
Heartbeat (IHB) Detector. During each measurement, this equipment records the
heartbeat intervals and works out the standard deviation. If the calculated value is larger
than or equal to 15, this equipment will light up the IHB symbol on the screen when
displaying the measuring 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.
