ABOUT AvERAGE READING
The UA-789 provides an average blood pressure reading based on
the total measurements stored in memory. When tak-
ing a measurement, the average blood pressure reading
will appear and the number of measurements stored in
memory will flash several times before the cuff begins
to inflate. The average blood pressure reading will also
appear briefly when you recall the measurements stored
in memory.
The Pressure Rating Indicator™ is a feature which
provides a snapshot of your blood pressure clas-
sification based on your measurements. This will
let you quickly know what your blood pressure
readings mean. Each segment of the bar indica-
tor corresponds to the Seventh Report of the
Joint National Committee (JNC7) on Prevention,
Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood
Pressure from the National Heart, Lung and
Blood Institute - May 2003. For a more detailed
look at this blood pressure classification, please refer to “Assessing
High Blood Pressure” on page E-16.
:The indicator displays a segment, based on the current measure-
ment, corresponding to the JNC7 Classification.
Due to other risk factors (e.g. diabetes, obesity, smoking, etc.) in addition to your
blood pressure measurement, the Pressure Rating Indicator is approximate. Please con-
sult with your physician for interpretation and diagnosis of your blood pressure measure-
ments.
Note: Residents outside of the United States (e.g.. Canada and Mexico) should refer to
the WHO Classification Table on page E-16 for assessment of their blood pressure mea-
surement.
