Hartmann Veroval Instructions For Use Manual page 73

Important information about use
Only use the monitor to take blood pressure measurements on the upper arm.
Do not place the cuff on other areas of the body.
Use only the supplied cuff or an original replacement cuff. The measured val-
ues may otherwise be incorrect.
Only use the monitor on persons whose upper arm circumference is within the
range indicated for the monitor.
If measured values are questionable, repeat the measurement.
Do not leave the monitor unattended near small children or persons who
cannot operate it themselves. There is a risk of strangulation if the cuff
tube becomes wrapped around the neck. Swallowing small parts that have
detached from the monitor can also result in suffocation.
Do not under any circumstances carry out blood pressure measurements on
babies or small children.
Please do not place the cuff over a wound as this may cause further injuries.
Do not place the cuff on persons who have had a mastectomy.
Please note that the pressure created by the cuff can lead to temporary dis-
ruption of medical devices being used at the same time on the same arm.
Do not use the blood pressure monitor together with a high frequency sur-
gical device.
If an intravenous treatment is being carried out or a venous catheter is
inserted in the arm, blood pressure measurements can lead to injury. Never
use the cuff on the arm to which these conditions apply.
The function of the arm on which the cuff is placed may become impaired
during inflation.
If you are carrying out the measurement on another person, please ensure
that using the blood pressure monitor does not have a lasting negative
effect on the blood circulation.
