8. Evaluating Results
Irregular Heartbeat:
This device can detect irregular heartbeat pat-
terns during measurement and will indicate them
by displaying the irregular heartbeat indicator.
This may be an indicator for arrhythmia, which is
a condition where the heart rhythm is abnormal.
These symptoms (omitted or premature
heartbeats, slow or excessively fast heart rate)
may be caused, among other things, by heart
disease, age, physical predisposition, excessive
use of stimulants, stress, or lack of sleep.
Arrhythmia can only be ascertained through
examination by your doctor.
Repeat the measurement if the Irregular Heartbeat
Indicator displays after a measurement. Rest for
at least five minutes between measurements and
do not talk or move during measurement. If the
icon
appears often, contact your doctor, since
