4. In case of cardiovascular diseases and a number of other diseases that require the blood pressure monitoring, measurements should be
carried out in the hours specifi ed by a doctor. REMEMBER THAT THE DIAGNOSTICS AND ANY TREATMENT OF ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION SHOULD
BE CARRIED OUT ONLY BY A DOCTOR BASED ON BLOOD PRESSURE READINGS OBTAINED BY A DOCTOR. MEDICAL DRUG ADMINISTRATION OR
CHANGE OF DOSAGES SHOULD BE MADE ONLY BY PRESCRIPTION OF AN ATTENDING DOCTOR.
5. In case of disorders such as deep vascular sclerosis, weak pulse wave and break in rhythm of heart contractions, the correct blood pressure
measurement can be complicated. IN THIS CASE, A DOCTOR SHALL PROVIDE RECOMMENDATIONS IN RELATION TO USE OF THIS DEVICE.
6. KEEP QUIET DURING THE MEASUREMENT TO OBTAIN THE CORRECT BLOOD PRESSURE READING WHEN USING THE ELECTRONIC DEVICE. The
blood pressure measurement should be carried out in a quiet comfortable atmosphere at room temperature. Exclude meal an hour before the
measurement, and exclude smoking, soft drinks, and alcohol 1.5-2 hours before the measurement.
7. Accuracy of the blood pressure measurement depends on matching the device cuff and size of your wrist. THE CUFF SHOULD NOT BE
TOO SMALL OR TOO BIG.
8. Repeated measurements are carried out at 5-minute intervals to recover the blood circulation. However, persons suff ering from severe
atherosclerosis, due to a signifi cant loss of elasticity of blood vessels, need longer intervals between measurements (10-15 minutes). This also
concerns patients suff ering from long-term diabetes. For more accurate determination of blood pressure it is recommended to carry out a series of
three consecutive measurements and to calculate the average value of measurement results.
9. Do not use this device in an explosive environment such as near fl ammable anesthetics or inside oxygen chamber.
10. The system may fail to yield specifi ed measurement accuracy if operated or stored in temperature or humidity conditions outside the limits
stated in the specifi cations section of this manual.
11. Do not use cuff s or accessories other than those specifi ed by the manufacturer. Otherwise, correct measurement readings cannot be obtained.
12 Do not apply the cuff over wounded wrist, wrist of which side is under an intravascular access or therapy or an arterio-venous shunt, or wrist on
the side of a mastectomy or lymph node clearance. Otherwise injury may be resulted.
13. Make sure that infl ation of the cuff is not causing prolonged impairment of blood circulation. Also, be cautious about temporary loss of the
functions of any other medical equipment if any monitoring equipment is used on the same limb with the blood pressure measuring cuff .
14. Do not infl ate the cuff when it is not wrapped around your wrist.
15. Do not apply the cuff on the limb which the intravenous drip infusion is implemented.
