RECOMMENDATIONS ON CORRECT MEASUREMENTS

1. If treated with hemodialysis or anticoagulants, antiplatelets or steroids, refer to your doctor about the blood pressure measurement.
2. Malfunctions are possible when the device is used near working mobile
phones, microwave ovens and other equipment generating electromagnetic
radiation.
3. For correct measurement it is necessary to know that the BLOOD PRES-
SURE IS SUBJECT TO SHARP FLUCTUATIONS EVEN IN SHORT TIME INTERVALS.
The blood pressure level depends on many factors. It is commonly lower in
summer and higher in winter. Blood pressure varies along with atmospheric
pressure and depends on the physical exertion, emotional excitability, stress
and diet. Medical drugs, alcohol and smoking exert great infl uence as well.
Occasionally, measurements in the clinic cause an increase in pressure val-
ues. Therefore, blood pressure measured at home is often diff erent from that
measured in the clinic. Since blood pressure increases at low temperatures,
measurements should be made at room temperature (about 20°C). If the device was stored at low temperature, prior to using it should
be kept for at least 1 hour at room temperature, otherwise the measurement result can be erroneous. During the day, the diff erence in
the readings in healthy people may attain 30-50 mm Hg for systolic (upper) pressure and up to 10 mm Hg for diastolic (lower) pressure.
Dependence of blood pressure on various factors is individual for each person. Therefore it is recommended to keep a special recording
of blood pressure readings. ONLY A DOCTOR MAY ANALYZE TRENDS IN CHANGING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE BASED ON CORRESPONDING
RECORDINGS.
