Measuring Technology This Physio Logic™ monitor uses the oscillometric method to detect your blood pressure. Before the cuff starts inflating, the device will establish a baseline cuff pressure equivalent to the air pressure. During the deflation, the device will detect the amplitude and slope of the pressure oscillations and thereby determine the systolic, diastolic, and pulse for you.
Blood Pressure Standard The Joint National Committee on prevention, detection, evalua- tion, and treatment of high blood pressure has developed a blood pressure standard, according to which areas of low and high risk blood pressure are identified. This standard is a guideline as blood pressure varies among different people and different age groups...

Display Explanation Systolic pressure Diastolic pressure No. of Memory Pulse rate Sequence Appears when manual Appears when manual cuff inflation is needed. cuff deflation is needed. Appears when measurement value is stored in memory or is recalled from memory Pulse Mark: Shows the pulse rate per minute. Appears when batteries should be replaced.
Recalling Memory 1. To read memory values, press the "M" key. The memory values will be shown on the LCD display. The average measurement of the last 3 measurements will be shown first and a new press of the “M” key will show the last measurement. 2.
Applying the Arm Cuff 1. Insert the cuff’s connecting tube into the unit. 2. Unwrap the arm cuff, leaving the “Index” end of the cuff through the D-ring of the cuff. 3. Put your left arm through the cuff loop. Position the artery mark ( ) at the middle of your arm above the elbow, in line with your middle finger.
Taking a Measurement 1. Press the On / Off button. All displays will appear for approximately one second before returning to “0”. The unit is ready for measurement at this point. If the downward arrow “ ” flashes, release the remaining cuff air by pressing the “Air Release Valve”...
Troubleshooting Symptom: No display when the On / Off button is pressed. Correction: If the batteries have run down, replace them with new alkaline batteries. If the batteries are not in the correct position, re-insert them with the correct polarities. Symptom: EE mark shown on display or the blood pressure value is displayed excessively low (high).
