How Do I Evaluate My Blood Pressure; Appearance Of The Pulse Arrhythmia (Pad); Data Memory; Viewing The Stored Values - Microlife BP W3 Confort Mode D'emploi

How do I evaluate my blood pressure?

The triangle on the left-hand edge of the display AL points at the range
within which the measured blood pressure value lies. The value is either
within the optimum (white), elevated (hatched gray) or high (black)
range. The classification corresponds to the following ranges defined by
international guidelines (ESH, ESC, JSH). Data in mmHg.
Range Systolic Diastolic Recommendation
1. blood pressure ≥135
too high
2. blood pressure 130 - 134 80 - 84
elevated
3. blood pressure <130
normal
The higher value is the one that determines the evaluation. Example:
a blood pressure value of 140/80 mmHg or a value of 130/90 mmHg
indicates «blood pressure too high».

Appearance of the Pulse Arrhythmia (PAD)

This symbol AM indicates that certain pulse irregularities were
detected during the measurement. In this case, the result may
deviate from your normal blood pressure – repeat the measurement.
In most cases, this is no cause for concern. However, if the symbol
appears on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with measure-
ments taken daily) we advise you to tell your doctor. Please show
your doctor the following explanation:

Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the
Arrhythmia indicator
This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also
analyses pulse irregularity during measurement. The device is
clinically tested.
The arrhythmia symbol is displayed after the measurement, if
pulse irregularities occur during measurement. If the symbol
appears more frequently (e.g. several times per week on
measurements performed daily) we recommend the patient to
seek medical advice.
This device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves
to detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.

4. Data Memory

This device automatically stores the last 30 measurement values.

Viewing the stored values

Press the M-button 3 briefly, when the device is switched off. The
display first shows «M» AK and «A», which stands for the average of
all stored values.
Pressing the M-button again displays the previous value. Pressing the M-
button repeatedly enables you to move from one stored value to another.

Blood pressure readings with suboptimal cuff fit AO-A are not
considered in the average value.
