RECORDINGS.
4 In case of cardiovascular diseases and a number of other diseases that require the blood pres-
sure 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 arm. 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.
