RISK CATEGORY INDEX

This monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category Index
that automatically compares each reading to defined levels
established by the American Heart Association (AHA 2017) as
described earlier in this manual, and provides a helpful cue if your
reading falls into one of the stages that could potentially indicate
increased risk. No cue is given if the reading falls in the normal
range as defined by AHA. Please note that cues provided by this
monitor are only intended to assist you in using this table. The
table and cues are only provided for convenience to help you
understand your noninvasive blood pressure reading as it relates
to the AHA information. They are not a substitute for a medical
examination by your physician. It is important for you to consult
with your physician regularly. Your physician will tell you your
normal blood pressure range as well as the point at which you
may actually be considered to be at risk.
