(13-29cm) arm Measurement method Oscillometric Display Digital LCD Measurement range Pressure 20-280mmHg, Pulse 40-180bpm Measurement accuracy Pressure ±3mmHg, Pulse ±5% Inflation system Manual inflation with air pumping bulb Deflation system Automatic deflation Power 1.5V (AAA) alkaline batteries X 4 Automatic power-off Approximately 3 minutes after measurement Reference method for clinical trials Auscultatory measurement Weight Approximately .75 lb (340g) without batteries 1. Slide the battery cover off in the direction of the arrow. 2. Install or replace the four AAA batteries, oriented as shown by battery compartment diagram, into the battery compartment. 3. Replace the battery cover. Ensure that the battery cover is securely fastened. Note: Ensure that the batteries are correctly installed. Incorrect installation will prevent the device from operating. OPEN BLooD PReSSURe Blood Pressure is a measure of the blood’s pressure in the circulatory system, which changes constantly during the course of the cardiac cycle. Blood pressure readings report two values. The higher reading (systolic pressure) shows the highest pressure Labtron Digital Blood Pressure Monitor 16 Labtron Digital Blood Pressure Monitor 707A-INS-LAB-RevC08-book.indd 5 1/3/08 11:36:35 AM in the arteries occurring when the heart contracts. The lower general troubleshooting whether the readings obtained are normal for that person. Problem Recommended Action Nothing appears in LCD Ensure that batteries are correctly oriented in battery holder (polarity matches battery case placement indicators) No measurement occurs Ensure that cuff is positioned correctly Go over measurement procedure; measure again Blood pressure measurements are too high or too low Ensure that user and cuff are positioned as instructed Rest your arm on a table so that the cuff is level with your heart during measurement Remain seated and still during entire measurement period Refrain from hand and body movements during measurement Blood pressure measurements vary Your blood pressure can fluctuate considerably throughout the day. All of the following factors can influence your blood pressure: • Emotional state • Daily activities / exercise • Smoking • Drinking alcoholic beverages • Eating • Taking certain medications reading (diastolic pressure) shows the lowest pressure in the arteries, which occurs right before the heart contracts. Blood pressure readings are written with the highest value first, then the lowest value. Readings of 120/80 are considered to be normal, with high blood pressure being defined as a systolic pressure which is 140mmHg or more at rest and a diastolic pressure which is 90mmHg or more at rest. Only a patient’s physician is qualified to determine Preparing to measure blood pressure 1. Blood pressure fluctuates continuously throughout the day. To consistently track your blood pressure, try to take your blood pressure at the same time each day. 2. Relax and remain still for 5 to 10 minutes before a blood pressure measurement, and between blood pressure measurements. 3. Refrain from eating, smoking, and drinking, especially alcoholic Labtron Digital Blood Pressure Monitor 6 Labtron Digital Blood Pressure Monitor 707A-INS-LAB-RevC08-book.indd 6 1/3/08 11:36:35 AM tRoUBLeShootIng error indicators Indication Cuff pressure reaches 330mmHg Cause Twisted bladder inside cuff Correction Ensure that bladder lies flat within cuff Indication "Err" displays, cuff pressure releases, then "0 pressure" displays Cause Excessive arm movement or talking during measurement Correction Turn monitor OFF then ON and measure again while remaining still Indication Could not obtain pulse rate Cause Cuff was too loosely applied, extremely weak pulse, or arrhythmia Correction Reapply cuff and measure again; if problem persists after cuff is correctly positioned, seek medical attention immediately Batteries are exhausted. Replace with four new AAA alkaline batteries Labtron Digital Blood Pressure Monitor 14 707A-INS-LAB-RevC08-book.indd 7 beverages, before a measurement. 4. Remove any clothing on the upper arm to place the cuff directly on the skin. Constriction of the upper arm by clothing or a rolled-up sleeve, as shown at excessive right, may cause an inaccurate reading; remove any constriction constricting garments. 5. Sit down in a chair with back support and place both feet on the floor. 6. Extend the arm from which the blood pressure will be taken to the front or side. Rest your hand, palm-up, on a table as shown at right. Note: Place the cuff at the same level as your heart to obtain accurate measurements. Your heart is located slightly to the right of your left armpit. Labtron Digital Blood Pressure Monitor 1/3/08 11:36:35 AM 7. Attach the cuff: Hold the area of the cuff where the hose exits the cuff firmly against the inside o...
