Measurement Procedure - Nissei DSK-1031 Instructoin Manual

3. Fix the cuff so that it fi ts tightly to the arm, but see that
it is not overtight (Fig. 9). Too tight or too free placement
of the cuff may give inaccurate readings.
Fig.9
4. If the arm is cone-shaped, it is recommended to put
the cuff spirally, as shown in the fi gure (Fig. 10).

5. If the rolled-up sleeve squeezes the arm interfering
with free blood fl ow the Device may give inaccurate
fi gures not corresponding to your actual blood pressure
(Fig. 11).

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE

IMPORTANT! The device has touch-sensitive buttons that
are pressed by slight touching. Moisture, dirt and extraneous
objects between the fi nger and the device panel can aff ect
the ability of buttons to respond to touching.
1. Insert the Air Tube Plug into the Cuff Jack.
Before measurement, take a few breaths and relax. During the
measurement, do not talk and do not move.
2. Press the START/STOP button. The defl ating symbol « » will
fl ash on the display, and the device will release the remaining air
from the cuff (Fig. 12)
3. Beep will be heard, and air will be pumped into the cuff . The symbol « » will fl ash,
and the displayed value will increase (Fig. 13). Infl ation will stop at optimum level
owing to the Fuzzy Infl ation algorithm.
4. The symbol « » will disappear, and the measurement will
start. The cuff pressure will decrease slowly..
Noise Interference Detection
This device detects the presence of extraneous
sounds or noises that can aff ect the measurement results.
When such interference is detected, the symbol «
pears on the display. In this case, it is recommended to re-
peat the measurement to eliminate the interference.
Control of Correct Fixing the Cuff
The symbol «
correctly, the symbol «
tight or too loose. In this case, it is recommended to repeat the
measurement after proper fi xing the cuff .
Press the START/STOP button to stop forcedly the measure-
ment: the device will stop infl ation and quickly release the air.
Automatic Additional Infl ation.
If on starting the measurement, the operating pressure appears to be insuffi cient due to
arm movements or due to excessive tension in a arm, the cuff will be fi lled with air again to
the level of about 30 mm Hg higher than the original level. Automatic additional infl ation
will be repeated until the measurement is completed successfully. This is not a malfunction.
5. The symbol «» will start fl ashing synchro-
nously with a sound signal, as soon as the
sensor catches the pulse pressure (Fig. 14)
6. When the measurement is completed, the
Fig.12 display will show the values of blood pressure,
pulse pressure, WHO scale and heart rate (Fig.
15). The device will automatically release the
air from the cuff .
7. Press the button or
will remain in the selected memory unit.
