BP A150 AFIB
Intended use:
This oscillometric blood pressure monitor is intended for measuring
non-invasive blood pressure in people aged 12 years or older.
It is clinically validated in patients with hypertension, hypotension,
diabetes, pregnancy, pre-eclampsia, atherosclerosis, end-stage
renal disease, obesity and the elderly.
The device can detect an irregular pulse suggestive of Atrial Fibril-
lation (AF). Please note that the device is not intended to diagnose
AF. A diagnosis of AF can only be confirmed by ECG. The patient
is advised to see a physician.
Dear Customer,
This device was developed in collaboration with physicians and
clinical tests carried out prove its measurement accuracy to be of
a very high standard.*
Microlife AFIB detection is the world's leading digital blood pressure
measurement technology for the detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) and
arterial hypertension. These are the two top risk factors of getting a
stroke or heart disease. It is important to detect AF and hypertension
at an early stage, even though you may not experience any symp-
toms. AF screening in general and thus also with the Microlife AFIB
algorithm, is recommended for people of 65 years and older. The
AFIB algorithm indicates that atrial fibrillation may be present. For this
reason, it is recommended that you visit your doctor when the device
gives an AFIB signal during your blood pressure measurement. The
AFIB algorithm of Microlife has been clinically investigated by several
prominent clinical investigators and showed that the device detects
patients with AFIB at a certainty of 97-100%.
