Resting indicator (using HSD diagnostics)
One of the most common errors made when taking a blood pres-
sure measurement is not ensuring that the user's circulatory sys-
tem is su ciently at rest when taking the measurement. In this
case, the measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure values
do not represent the blood pressure at rest. However, it is this
blood pressure at rest that should be used to assess the meas-
ured values.
This blood pressure monitor uses integrated haemodynamic sta-
bility diagnostics (HSD) to measure the user's haemodynamic
stability when taking the blood pressure measurement. This ena-
bles it to indicate whether the blood pressure was taken when the
user's circulatory system was su ciently at rest.
The measured blood pressure value was obtained
when the user's circulatory system was su ciently
at rest and reliably represents the blood pressure
at rest.
Indicates that the value was obtained when the
user's circulatory system was not su ciently at
rest. The blood pressure values measured in this
case generally do not represent the blood pressure
at rest. The measurement should therefore be
repeated after a period of physical and mental rest
lasting at least 5 minutes.
No resting
During the measurement it was not possible to
indicator
determine whether the user's circulatory system
symbol is
was su ciently at rest. In this case too, the meas-
displayed
urement should be repeated after a period of rest
lasting at least 5 minutes.
The user's circulatory system not being su ciently at rest can
be the result of various factors, such as physical stress, mental
strain/distraction, speaking or experiencing cardiac arrhythmia
during the measurement.
In an overwhelming number of cases, HSD will give a very good
guide as to whether the user's circulatory system is rested when a
blood pressure measurement is taken.
However, certain patients su ering from cardiac arrhythmia or
chronic mental conditions may remain haemodynamically unsta-
ble even in the long-term, something which persists even after
repeated periods of rest. The accuracy of the results for the blood
pressure at rest is reduced in these users.
Like any medical measurement method, the precision of HSD is
limited and it can lead to incorrect results in some cases. Never-
theless, the blood pressure measurements taken when the user's
circulatory system is su ciently at rest represent particularly re-
liable results.
