CAUTION
• This device is intended for adult use in homes only.
• The device is not suitable for use on neonatal patients,
pregnant women, patients with implanted, electronical
devices, patients with pre-eclampsia, premature ventricular
beats, atrial fibrillation, peripheral, arterial disease and
patients undergoing intravascular therapy or arterio-
venous shunt or people who received a mastectomy. Please
consult your doctor prior to using the unit if you suffer
from illnesses.
• The device is not suitable for measuring the blood
pressure of children. Ask your doctor before using it on
older children.
• The device is not intended for patient transport outside
a healthcare facility.
• The device is not intended for professional use.
• This device is intended for no-invasive measuring and
monitoring of arterial blood pressure.
It is not intended for use on extremities other than the
arm or for functions other than obtaining a blood pressure
measurement.
• Do not confuse self-monitoring with self-diagnosis. This
unit allows you to monitor your blood pressure. Do not
begin or end medical treatment without asking a physician
for treatment advice.
• If you are taking medication,consult your physician to
determine the most appropriate time to measure your
blood pressure. Never change a prescribed medication
without consulting your physician.
• Do not take any therapeutic measures on the basis of
a self measurement. Never alter the dose of a medicine
prescribed by a doctor. Consult your doctor if you have any
question about your blood pressure.
• When the device was used to measure patients who
have common arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular
premature beats or atrial fibrillation, the best result may
occur with deviation. Please consult your physician about
the result.
• Don't kink the connection tube during use, otherwise, the
cuff pressure may continuously increase which can prevent
blood flow and result in harmful injury to the PATIENT.
• When using this device, please pay attention to the
following situation which may interrupt blood flow and
influence blood circulation of the patient, thus cause
harmful injury to the patient: connection tubing kinking
too frequent and consecutive multiple measurements; the
application of the cuff and its pressurization on any arm
where intravascular access or therapy, or an arterio-venous
(A-V) shunt, is present; inflating the cuff on the side of a
mastectomy.
• Warning: Do not apply the cuff over a wound;otherwise it
can cause further injury.
• Do not inflate the cuff on the same limb which other
monitoring ME equipment is applied around simultaneously,
because this could cause temporary loss of function of
those simultaneously-used monitoring ME equipment.
• On the rare occasion of a fault causing the cuff to
remain fully inflated during measurement, open the cuff
immediately. Prolonged high pressure (cuff pressure >
300mmHg or constant pressure > 15mmHg for more than 3
minutes) applied to the arm may lead to an ecchymosis.
• Please check that operation of the device does not result
in prolonged impairment of patient blood circulation.
• When measurement, please avoid compression or
restriction of the connection tubing.
• The device cannot be used with HF surgical equipment
at the same time.
• The ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENT shall disclose that the
SPHYGMOMANOMETER was clinically investigated according
to the requirements of ISO 81060-2:2013.
• To verify the calibration of the AUTOMATED
SPHYGMOMANOMETER, please contact the manufacturer.
• This device is contraindicated for any female who
may be suspected of, or is pregnant. Besides providing
inaccurate readings, the effects of this device on the fetus
are unknown.
• Too frequent and consecutive measurements could cause
disturbances in blood circulation and injuries.
• This unit is not suitable for continuous monitoring during
medical emergencies or operations.Otherwise, the patient's
arm and fingers will become anaesthetic, swollen and even
purple due to a lack of blood.
• When not in use, store the device in a dry room and
protect it against extreme moisture, heat, lint, dust and
direct sunlight. Never place any heavy objects on the
storage case.
