Instruction Manual Inventum blood pressure monitor, BC18
Read the instruction manual carefully before use and keep
the instructions in a safe place for future referrence.
1 | introduction
The wrist blood pressure monitor is used for non-invasive
measurement and monitoring of adults'arterial blood
pressure. You can use it to measure your blood pressure
quickly and easily, storing the results and displaying the
progression of readings. A warning is issued in case of
possible heartrhythm disturbance. Warning limits for systolic
and diastolic pressure (preset according to WHO guidelines)
can also be individually adjusted (Doctor's function).
The computer complies with the requirements of the
European Directive for Medical Products, the German
Medical Product Act as well as the European standards
EN1060-1 (Non-invasive blood pressure measuring devices
Part 1: General requirements), EN1060-3 (Non-invasive blood
pressure measuring devices Part 3: supplementary
requirements for electromechanical blood pressure
measuring systems).

2 | safety instructions
• read the instruction manual carefully and completely
before using the appliance and keep them for later use.
• Always measure your blood pressure at the same time of
day in order to ensure comparability of the readings.
• Relax for about 5 minutes before each measurement!
• Wait 5 minutes between successive measurements!
• The measurements you make yourself are only for
your information – they are no substitute for a medical
examination! Discuss your readings with your doctor and on
no account make your own medical decisions (e.g. drugs
and their dosages)!
• The wrist measurement will be less accurate if an suffers
from restricted blood circulation resulting from chronic or
acute vascular diseases (including vasoconstrictions). In
this case, use a blood pressure monitor for measurements
on the upper arm.
• Measuring errors can occur in diseases of the
cardiovascular system, as well as with very low blood
pressure, irregular blood circulation and arrhythmia and
also in the case of other symptoms.
• The blood pressure computer consists of precision-made
electronic components. The measuring accuracy and life of
the computer depend on the care with which it is treated:
- Protect the computer from shocks and be careful not to
drop it,
- protect it against moisture, dirt, wide fluctuations
