GENERAL INFORMATION

INDICATIONS FOR USE
This Instruction Manual is designed to assist the user with safe and eff ective operation of
the digital blood pressure monitor DSK-1031 (hereinafter – the "Device"). The device is de-
signed to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate reading in patients
aged 13 years and older. This device should not be used for neonate or infant. Consult your
doctor for blood pressure measurement in children or person in pregnancy or under pre-
eclamptic condition. The device is recommended for use in patients with unstable (non-
permanent) blood pressure or hypertension at home as a supplement to medical surveil-
lance. The cuff is suitable for a upper arm with a circumference of about 22 - 42 cm. Blood
pressure is measured in the range from 50 to 250 mmHg for systolic and 40 to 180
mmHg for diastolic, in the range from 40 to 160 heartbeats per minute.
OPERATION PRINCIPLES
The device uses the oscillometric method of measurement. The cuff connected to the
electronic module is wrapped around the upper arm.
When you press the START/STOP button, the device starts the automatic infl ation,
which is followed by the blood pressure measurement. The sensor element of the de-
vice detects slight pressure oscillations in the cuff produced by the expansion and
contraction of the brachial artery in response to each heartbeat. Infl ation is stopped
when the cuff is pumped enough to determine diastolic and systolic pressure, where-
upon the air is discharged from the cuff . Rhythm and amplitude of the pressure waves
are measured and displayed on the LC display as a numerical value in millimeters of
mercury. The device has an arrhythmia indicator, as well as two memories with 60
cells in each calculating the average value.
NISSEI New Technologies
Fuzzy Infl ation Algorithm – is an algorithm for automatic selection of the
cuff infl ation pressure. Using this algorithm, the device by itself determines
the pressure level to which it is necessary to infl ate the cuff based on the
patient's systolic pressure. Owing to the Fuzzy Infl ation algorithm the device
becomes easier to use, while the measurement gets more comfortable and
more accurate.
Arrhythmia indicator is a special icon on the display that informs on the
irregular heartbeat, while the measurement result is correct.
