c) When the measurement has been con-
cluded, air in the cuff is released. The
measured systolic and diastolic blood
pressure values as well as the pulse are
now displayed. (Pulse=number of heart-
beats each minute) Example (Fig.): Sys-
tolic 118, Diastolic 73, Pulse 75. The
measurement results are displayed for
about one minute.
5.5. Discontinuing a measurement
If it is necessary to interrupt a blood pressure
measurement for any reason (e.g., the patient
feels unwell), the ON/OFF button can be pressed
at any time. The device then immediately lowers
the cuff pressure automatically and enters into
sleep mode.
5.6. Irregular heartbeat detection
This symbol indicates that certain
pulse irregularities were detected during
the measurement. In this case, the result
may deviate from your normal basal blood
pressure – repeat the measurement. In
most cases, this is no cause for concern.
However, if the symbol appears on a regu-
lar basis (e.g., several times a week with
measurements taken daily), we advise you
to tell your doctor.
