What is an Irregular Heartbeat?
The UA-851THW Blood Pressure Monitor provides a blood pressure and
pulse rate measurement even when an irregular heartbeat occurs. The
Irregular Heartbeat symbol will appear in the
the event an Irregular Heartbeat has occurred during measurement. An
irregular heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies by 25% from
the average of all heartbeat intervals during the blood pressure
measurement. It is important that you relax, remain still and refrain
from talking during measurements.
NOTE: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this
symbol frequently.
About Pressure Rating Indicator
The Pressure Rating Indicator
provides a snapshot of your blood pressure
classification based on your measurements. This
will let you quickly know what your blood pressure
readings mean. Each segment of the bar indicator
corresponds to the Seventh Report of the Joint
National Committee (JNC7) on Prevention,
Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood Pressure
from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute
- May 2003. For a more detailed look at this blood
pressure classification, please refer to "Assessing
High Blood Pressure for Adults" on page E-12.
The indicator displays a segment, based on the current
measurement, corresponding to the JNC7 Classification.
NOTE: Due to other risk factors (e.g. diabetes, obesity, smoking, etc.) in
addition to your blood pressure measurement, the Pressure Rating Indicator
is approximate. Please consult with your physician for interpretation and
diagnosis of your blood pressure measurements.
