ENGLISH
Repeated measurement for a long period of time, limbs rubbing with the cuff may be accompanied by purpura, ischemia
and nerve damage. When measurement a animal, it is necessary to frequently check the color, warmth and sensitivity of
the distal of the limb. Once any abnormalities are observed, place the cuff in another position or stop the blood pressure
measurement immediately.
Do not twist or wrap the airway tube. It can cause constant pressure in the cuff which can block blood flow and cause
serious damage to the animal.
Do not use the cuff in the area where the treatment is being performed inside blood vessel or the arteriovenous connection.
This may cause temporary blockage of blood flow and cause injury to the patient.
Do not use the cuff on the side of the mastectomy.
When using the cuff to pressurize, some of the body's functions may temporarily weaken. Use the measurement medical
electrical equipment at the appropriate limbs position.
The device need to be placed for 2 hours from the minimum storage temperature to being ready for its intended use.
The device need to be placed for 4 hours from the highest storage temperature to being ready for its intended use.
Note
The following conditions may also cause changes in the blood pressure measurement value.
When measuring, the patient is nervous, excited, emotional instability;
The room temperature rise or fall sharply, or the environment of measurement often changes;
Measuring in a moving vehicle;
The high and low location of cuff will cause changes in measurement results;

Do you have a question about the CONTEC08A-VET and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
When I take the BP on my dog, it just keeps going and never gives a pressure. Cuff is on properly, is the right size and air plug is in securely. What **** I doing or not doing correctly?
Several factors could prevent the CONTEC08A-VET from providing a blood pressure reading on your dog despite proper cuff placement and secure connections:
1. Animal Condition: The device should not be used on animals with damaged skin, sickle-cell disease, or thrombasthemia without clinical evaluation.
2. Incorrect Cuff Size or Pressure: Ensure that the correct cuff size is used and that it is not overinflated, as this may prevent accurate readings.
3. Movement or Stress: If the animal is moving or stressed, it can interfere with measurements. Keep the animal calm and still.
4. Device Lifespan: If the device has exceeded its five-year useful life, it may no longer function properly.
5. Environmental Factors: Ensure the device is not used in conditions with flammable anesthetic gases or if liquid has entered the device.
6. Software or Connection Issues: If using the USB interface to transfer data, check the related software for proper operation.
If issues persist, consult the manual for troubleshooting or contact the service department.
