If you record a value that differs greatly from your normal blood pressure
measurement, you should take another measurement around five minutes later. This
will allow you to rule out any of the factors mentioned above, which could result in an
incorrect measurement.
About your measurement results
CAUTION!
If the measurements obtained give you cause to be concerned about your health,
consult with your physician or licensed health care professional. Do not change
your current treatments and/or dosages of medication(s) as a result of your
measurements unless you have discussed this first with your physician.
By using your device regularly and recording your results, you can get a clear overview
of your blood pressure. Everybody’s blood pressure changes constantly. Fluctuations
may be caused by mental and physical factors such as diet, stress, exertion, smoking
and caffeine. Blood pressure can also be affected by the time of day, time of year and
temperature. In addition, arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat) can lead to imprecise results.
In this case, discuss with your physician whether you should be using this device.
