Measurements Note: The UB-328, once used, will provide an inflation appropriate to the user, based on the previous measurement. If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed 150 mmHg, read "For those whose systolic pressure is over 150 mmHg" on page 7.
3. When the desired number is reached, release the START button. Measurement will begin. Note: The operation above is required only when you measure your blood pressure for the first time. The next time, the UB-328 will provide an appropriate inflation, so measure your blood pressure as described on page 6. ENGLISH 7...
Recalling Memory Data The UB-328 automatically stores up to 30 blood pressure and pulse measurements in its memory. Measurements stored in memory are assigned an index number in the order of the newest to the oldest. The oldest reading displays as “n01”.
What Is An Irregular Heartbeat? Model UB-328 blood pressure monitor provides a blood pressure and pulse rate measurement even when an irregular heartbeat occurs. An irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies by 25% from the average of all heartbeats during the blood pressure measurement.
• Maintain proper weight. • Exercise regularly. • Have regular physical checkups. 3. Why measure blood pressure at home? Blood pressure measured at a clinic or doctor's office may cause apprehension or fear and can produce an elevated reading, 25 to 30 mmHg higher than that measured at home. Home measurement reduces the effects of outside influences on blood pressure readings, supplements the doctor's readings and provides a more accurate, complete blood pressure history.
About Blood Pressure 5. Blood pressure variations An individual’s blood pressure varies greatly on a daily and seasonal basis. It may vary by 30 to 50 mmHg due to various conditions during the day. In hypertensive individuals, variations are even more pronounced. Normally, the blood pressure rises while at work or play and falls to its lowest levels during sleep.
Troubleshooting Problem Probable cause Corrective action Nothing appears in Batteries are drained. Replace all batteries with new ones. the display, even Battery terminals are not in the correct Place the batteries with negative and positive terminals when the power is position.
