Symbol Information:
• If your systolic or diastolic pressure is
outside the standard range, the Heartbeat
symbol ( ) will blink when the
measurement result is displayed.
Recent research suggests that the following
values can be used as a guide to high blood
pressure for measurements taken at home.
This criteria is for home blood pressure measurement.
For professional office blood pressure measurement criteria,
please refer to Chapter 8.
• Your blood pressure monitor includes an
irregular heartbeat feature. Irregular
heartbeats can influence the results of the
measurement. The irregular heartbeat
algorithm automatically determines if the
measurement is usable or needs to be
repeated. If the measurement results are
affected by irregular heartbeats but the result
is valid, the result is shown together with the irregular
heartbeat icon. If the irregular heartbeats cause the
measurement to be invalid, no result is shown. If the Irregular
heartbeat symbol ( ) is shown after you have taken a
measurement, repeat the measurement. If the Irregular
heartbeat symbol ( ) is shown frequently, please make
your doctor aware of it.
