7.5 Evaluating the results
Cardiac arrhythmia:
This device can identify potential disruptions of the heart rhythm when
measuring and, if necessary, indicates this after the measurement
with the symbol . If the voice function is activated, the device will
announce: "A possible cardiac arrhythmia was found." This can be an
indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is an illness in which the heart rhythm
is abnormal because of flaws in the bioelectrical system that regulates the
heartbeat. The symptoms (skipped or premature heart beats, pulse being
slow or too fast) can be caused by factors such as heart disease, age,
physical make-up, excess stimulants, stress or lack of sleep. Arrhythmia
can only be determined through an examination by your doctor. If the
symbol is shown on the display after the measurement has been
taken, repeat the measurement. Please ensure that you rest for 5 minutes
beforehand and do not speak or move during the measurement. If
the symbol appears frequently, please consult your doctor. Self-
diagnosis and treatment based on the measurements can be dangerous.
Always follow your doctor's instructions.
