7. As a common issue for all blood pressure monitors using the oscillometric

measurement function, the device may have diculty in determining the

proper blood pressure for users diagnosed with diabetes, poor circulation of

4

blood, kidney problems, or for users suered from stroke, or for unconscious

users.

8. This unit is able to detect common arrhythmia (atrial or ventricular premature

beats or atrial brillation). The ARR, AF(AFib) and PC icons are displayed after

the measurement if Atrial Fibrillation and Premature Contraction was detect-

ed during the measurement. If ARR, AF(AFib) or PC icons are displayed, you

are advised to wait for a while and take another measurement. It is strongly

recommended that you consult your physician if the ARR, AF(AFib) or PC

icons appears often.

9. While the given device is able to detect specic pulse arrhythmia, the meas-

urement accuracy of the blood pressure meter may be impaired with the

occurrence of pulse arrhythmia.

10. To stop operation at any time, press the ON/OFF or START/STOP key, and the

air in the cu will be rapidly exhausted.

PARR (Pulse Arrhythmia) Technology

Pulse Arrhythmia (PARR) technology specically detects the existence of

pulse arrhythmia, including atrial brillation (AF, AFib), Atrial and / or Ventricu-

lar Premature Contractions (PC), Tachycardia (TACH), and Bradycardia (BRAD).

Pulse Arrhythmia may be related to cardiac disorders, needs medical atten-

tion and thus early diagnosis is of paramount importance. The PARR tech-

nology detects arrhythmia during regular blood pressure checks without

any additional user skills, user interaction and measurement prolongation.

Beside the blood pressure diagnosis a specic pulse arrhythmia diagnosis is

provided with PARR.

Note: The PARR detection of AF(AFib), PC, TACH and BRAD is provided with a

clinically proven high detection probability [1]. However, the sensitivity

and specicity is limited, thus most, but not all pulse arrhythmia will

be detected and displayed. In certain patients with uncommon clini-

cal conditions the PARR technology may not be able to detect pulse

arrhythmia. This partly comes from the fact that some arrhythmia can

only be found with an ECG diagnosis, but not with a pulse diagnosis.

Thus PARR is not meant to replace any medical ECG diagnosis by your

doctor. PARR provides an early detection of certain pulse arrhythmia,

which inevitably need to be presented to your doctor in charge.

Remark: [1] Clinical Investigation of PARR - A new Oscillometric Pulse Arrhyth-

mia Type Discriminating Detection Technology

Atrial Fibrillation Detection (AF, AFib)

The upper chambers of the heart (the atria) do not contract, but quiver and

thus blood is driven irregularly and with lower eciency into the ventricles.

Subsequently irregular heartbeats occurs, which mostly are associated with

a fast, yet highly instable heart rate. This condition is associated with a higher

risk for the formation of cardiac blood clots. Amongst others, they may el-

evate the risk of brain strokes. Beside this atrial brillation may contribute to

the severity of a chronic or acute heart failure condition and may be associ-

ated with other heart-related complications. Age dependent, about 10 %- 20

% percent of patients who suer from an ischemic stroke also suer from

atrial brillation.

10

Premature Contraction Detection (PC)

Extra abnormal heartbeats generated in irregular excitation sites of your

heart, either in the atria (PAC), the ventricle (PVC) or the cardiac conduction

nodes (PNC). These extra beats may disrupt your regular rhythm, they may

come in early or cause a signicant pauses regarding your perceivable pulse.

This is called palpitations, which can be felt in your chest. They may occur

as isolated, single events, as a series of irregular pulses or can be distributed

all over your pulse beats. If they are not related to mental stress, or acute

demanding physical load, they may be a marker for a multitude of cardiac

disorders. Some of these disorders go along with an elevated risk prole for

ischemic events, either in the heart (e,g, coronary heart disease) or outside

the heart, e.g. an elevated risk for a stroke. Some PCs may indicate on val-

vular or myocardial disorders and become very important if a myocarditis

(infection of the heart muscle) is suspected. This unit is able to detect prema-

ture contractions. The ARR and PC icons ( ) are displayed right after the

measurement if premature contractions have been detected.

Atrial brillation most often initially occurs with temporary periods of arrhyth-

mia and may progress to a permanent state of this disorder in the course of

time. No matter, whether you intent to safeguard yourself from an undetect-

ed AF(AFib) state, or you measure during an ongoing period of active atrial

brillation, or you measure in between periods of AF(AFib), the PARR technol-

ogy can be applied at any of these conditions. This unit is able to detect Atrial

brillation (AF, AFib). The ARR and AF(AFib) icons ( ) are displayed right

after the measurement if Atrial Fibrillation was detected.

Note: It is strongly recommended, that you consult your physician, if either

the AF(AFib) icon occurs newly for several times, or, if your AF(AFib) is

known to your doctor, but the incidence of AF(AFib) readings changes

over time. Your doctor will then be able to provide all required medical

test and possible therapeutic procedures.

Note: The presence of a cardiac pacemaker may impair the AF(AFib) detec-

tion by PARR.

11

Tachycardia Detection (TACH)

A fast heart rate of higher than 100 beats per minute (bpm) in adults. Unless

being caused by physical or mental stress, a tachycardia may be an indicator

for both cardiac (e.g. Coronary heart disease, valvular disorder), or extra-car-

diac disorders (e.g. hyperthyroidism, fever, hypoxemia), as well as medication

and stimulant substance side eects (e.g. caeine). The unit is able to detect

Tachycardia (TACH). The ARR and TACH icons ( ) are displayed right

after the measurement if tachycardia has been detected.

Note: It is strongly recommended, that you consult your physician, if either

the TACH icon occurs newly for several times, or, if your TACH is known

to your doctor, but the incidence of TACH readings changes over time.

Your doctor will then be able to provide all required medical test and

possible therapeutic procedures.

Note: It is strongly recommended, that you consult your physician, if either

the PC icon occurs newly for several times, or, if your PC is known to

your doctor, but the incidence of PC readings changes over time. Your

doctor will then be able to provide all required medical test and pos-

sible therapeutic procedures.

Bradycardia Detection (BRAD)

A slow heart rate of less than 55 beats per minute (bpm) in adults. Unless not

genetically determined or subsequent to a high cardiac endurance training

adaptation, bradycardia may be related to multitude of cardiac disorders (e.g.

valvular heart disease, heart failure) or extra-cardiac disorders (e.g. hypothy-

roidism, electrolyte imbalance) or medications (e.g. beta-receptor blocker).

This unit is able to detect Bradycardia (BRAD). The ARR and BRAD icons (

) are displayed right after the measurement if bradycardia was de-

tected.

Note: It is strongly recommended, that you consult your physician, if either

the BRAD icon occurs newly for several times, or, if your BRAD is known

to your doctor, but the incidence of BRAD readings changes over time.

Your doctor will then be able to provide all required medical test and

possible therapeutic procedures.

12

Pulse Arrhythmia Detection (ARR)

Once the occurrence of pulse arrhythmia has been detected in the course of

your blood pressure measurement, the icon ARR is displayed. In the case, that

the found pulse arrhythmia can be specied by the PARR technology, the

ARR icon is accompanied by the specically detected type of arrhythmia, e.g.

PC, AF(AFib), TACH or BRAD. Once the kind of found pulse arrhythmia cannot

be safely determined by PARR, the device is displaying ARR without any ad-

ditional pulse arrhythmia type icon.

Note: It is strongly recommended, that you consult your physician, if either

the ARR icon occurs newly for several times, or, if your ARR is known

to your doctor, but the incidence of ARR readings changes over time.

This is independent whether the ARR icon is specied by another pulse

arrhythmia icon or not. Your doctor will then be able to provide all re-

quired medical test and possible therapeutic procedures.

The PARR technology is able to detect and display combined pulse arrhyth-

mia ndings.

Real Fuzzy Measuring Technology

This unit uses the oscillometric method to detect your blood pressure. Be-

fore the cu starts inating, the device will establish a baseline cu pressure

equivalent to the air pressure. This unit will automatically determine the ap-

propriate ination level based on pressure oscillations, followed by cu dea-

tion.

During the deation, the device will detect the amplitude and slope of the

pressure oscillations and thereby determine your actual the systolic blood

pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse rate.

Preliminary Remarks

This Blood Pressure Monitor complies with the European regulations and

bears the CE mark “CE 1639”. The quality of the device has been veried and

conforms to the provisions of the EC council directive 93/42/EEC (Medical

Device Directive), Annex I essential requirements and applied harmonized

standards.

This blood pressure monitor was designed for long service periods. In order

to ensure continued accuracy, it’s recommended that all digital blood pres-

sure monitors require re-calibration. This monitor (under normal usage with

approx. 3 measurements a day) does not require re-calibration

for 2 years. Once the unit should be re-calibrated the device

will display . The unit should also be re-calibrated if the mon-

itor sustains damage due to blunt force (such as dropping) or

exposure to uids and / or extreme hot or cold temperature /

humidity changes. When appears, simply return your device

to your nearest dealer for re-calibration service.

Loose Cu Detection

If the cu was applied too loosely, it may cause unreliable measurement re-

sults or measurements can fail to start. The “Cu Wrap Detection” can help to

determine if the cu is wrapped snugly enough. The specied icon appears

once a “loosen cu” has been detected during measurement. Otherwise the

specied icon appears if the cu is wrapped correctly during measurement.

Movement Detection

The “Movement Detection” helps reminding the user to remain still and is indi-

cating any adverse body movement during measurement. The specied icon

appears once a “body movement” has been detected during and after such a

measurement.

Note: It’s highly recommended that you measure again if the icon appears.
