RISK CAtEGoRy INdEX

This monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category Index that
automatically compares each reading to defined levels established
by the U.S. National Institutes of Health's (NIH) National Heart
Lung and Blood Institute as described earlier in this manual, and
provides a helpful cue if your reading falls into one of the stages
that could potentially indicate increased risk. No cue is given if the
reading falls in the normal range as defined by NIH. Please note
that cues provided by this monitor are only intended to assist you
in using this table. The table and cues are only provided for conve-
nience to help you understand your non-invasive blood pressure
reading as it relates to the NIH information. They are not a substi-
tute for a medical examination by your physician. It is important
for you to consult with your physician regularly. Your physician will
tell you your normal blood pressure range as well as the point at
which you may actually be considered to be at risk.
