inspect the luster, the warmth and sensitivity of the body extremity frequently. On observation of
any abnormality, immediately stop the blood pressure measurement.
² The patient should relax as much as possible during the measurement.
² It's recommended that the 5min should elapse before starting the first measurement.
Ø The patient should lie in bed or sit in a chair, in order for the cuff and the heart to be at the same level
and the most accurate measurement to be taken. Other postures may lead to inaccurate
measurement.
Do not speak or move before or during the measurement. Ensure that the cuff will not be hit or
Ø
touched by other objects.
Ø The measurements should be taken at appropriate intervals. Continuous measurement at too frequent
intervals may lead to compression of the arm, reduced blood flow and lower blood pressure, and
result in inaccurate measurement of blood pressure. Two minutes measurement intervals are
recommended.
Ø When an adult is monitored, the machine may fail in giving the blood pressure measure if the pediatric
mode is selected.
Prior to use of the cuff, empty the cuff until there is no residual air inside it to ensure accurate
Ø
measurement.
Ø Do NOT twist the cuff tube or put heavy things on it.
² When unplugging the cuff, hold the head of the connector and pull it out.
² When the monitor is used with electro-surgical unit, do not allow the cuff, bladder and air tube
contact any part of the electro-surgical unit to prevent the patient from hurt caused by
burning.
² Make sure that the device is used in the environment specified on this User Manual, or
inaccuracy result may be caused.
