Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON M7 Intelli IT (ALRU) Automatic
Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor.
Operational principle of work
Oscillometric method:
The beat in the pulsation generated by the contraction of the heart is
captured as the pressure inside the cuff to measure the blood
pressure. If the cuff wrapped around the upper arm is pressurized
sufficiently, the blood flow stops, but the beat of the pulsation is
present and the pressure inside the cuff receives this and oscillates.
Next, as the pressure inside the cuff gradually decreases, the
oscillation of the pressure within the cuff gradually increases and
reaches a peak. As the pressure within the cuff decreases further, the
oscillation decreases from its peak. The pressure within the cuff and
the relationship with the increase and decrease of the oscillation
within the cuff in this series of processes are stored into memory,
calculations are carried out, and the blood pressure value is
determined. The oscillometric method does not determine the blood
pressure value instantly like a microphone type automatic blood
pressure gauge with the auscultation method, but rather determines it
from the series of change curves as explained above. Therefore, it is
not easily affected by external noise, an electric scalpel or other
electro surgical instruments.
Safety Instructions
This instruction manual provides you with important information about
the OMRON M7 Intelli IT (ALRU) Automatic Upper Arm Blood
Pressure Monitor. To ensure the safe and proper use of this monitor,
READ and UNDERSTAND all of these instructions. If you do not
understand these instructions or have any questions, contact
your OMRON retail outlet or distributor before attempting to use
this monitor. For specific information about your own blood
pressure, consult with your physician.
