Instrucciones importantes antes de usar la unidad
1. Do not confuse self-monitoring with self-diagnosis. Blood pressure
measurements should only be interpreted by a health professional who is familiar
with your medical history.

appropriate time to measure your blood pressure. NEVER change a prescribed

sleep and higher when he or she is active. Blood pressure can change easily in
response to physiological changes. The setting in which a person's blood
pressure is measured can also affect the results. Having one's blood pressure
measured by a healthcare professional in a hospital or clinic can cause
nervousness and may result in a temporarily elevated reading. Because blood
pressure measurements taken in a clinical setting can vary considerably from
those taken at home, a person's blood pressure should be measured not only
occasionally in the doctor's office, but also on a regular basis at home. Also, if
you find that your blood pressure is lower at home, this is not unusual. To
accurately compare with your physician's reading, take your Panasonic blood
pressure monitor to your doctor's office and compare readings in this setting.
