2.7 Important safety instructions for the doctor

WARNING
Danger of blood flow interruptions as a result of constant cuff pressure or as a result of too frequent
measuring
▪
If the patient has limited cognitive abilities, the device may only be used under supervision.
▪
Ensure the shoulder strap and cuff tube are in the correct position and take care that the cuff tube is
not knotted, squashed or stretched.
▪
Do not kink the cuff tube.
▪
Always put the cuff tube under clothing (even at night).
▪
Be sure to tell patients about the correct positioning of the cuff and point out to them that the device is
to be placed in such a way that the inflated cuff is not squeezed or kinked, especially when sleeping.
▪
Measurement can be interrupted at any stage by pressing any button. This deflates the cuff and the
device can be removed.

Inform the patient about this danger.
