How This Blood Pressure, Monitor Works

Page 8 highlights

HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR WORKS This monitor uses Smart Measure™ Technology to detect your blood pressure. With one touch of a button, the cuff will automatically inflate to block the blood flow through your artery. Next, the deflation process starts. Smart Measure™ Technology enables the monitor to automatically inflate and deflate to the appropriate level for each individual. Please note that any muscle movement during inflation or deflation will cause measurement error. When measurement is complete, the monitor will display your systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and pulse readings. Based upon your measurement results, the monitor's Risk Category Indicator will alert you if your reading falls into the pre-hypertension, stage 1 hypertension, or stage 2 hypertension categories. See page 20 for more information on the Risk Category Indicator. 7

HOW THIS BLOOD PRESSURE
MONITOR WORKS
This monitor uses Smart Measure™ Technology to
detect your blood pressure. With one touch of a but-
ton, the cuff will automatically inflate to block the blood
flow through your artery. Next, the deflation process
starts. Smart Measure™ Technology enables the moni-
tor to automatically inflate and deflate to the appropri-
ate level for each individual. Please note that any mus-
cle movement during inflation or deflation will cause
measurement error. When measurement is complete,
the monitor will display your systolic pressure, diastolic
pressure, and pulse readings.
Based upon your measurement results, the monitor’s
Risk Category Indicator will alert you if your reading
falls into the pre-hypertension, stage 1 hypertension, or
stage 2 hypertension categories. See page 20 for more
information on the Risk Category Indicator.
