Your Acv8rlives Upper-Arm Blood Pressure2 Monitor
Please read this manual carefully before you use your new device so that you do not injure yourself or others, or
cause damage to your new device through improper use.
Intended Use for Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor:
The Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor is a device that can measure your blood pressure and heart rate and
connect to the Asthma+me or Acv8rlives4 Health+Wellness Apps.
These devices are intended for measuring the blood pressure and heart rate on the upper-arm and is intended
for use by adults only and for use indoors. The soluon is not intended for primary or self-diagnosis or as a
substute for medical care, and it is not intended to provide real-me data.
The Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor is easy-to-use, with two models available:
PINK for small—medium upper-arm circumference of 17 — 32cm
BLUE for medium—larger upper-arm circumference of 25 — 48cm
This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring Method to detect blood pressure. Before every measurement, it
establishes a zero point equivalent to atmospheric pressure. Then it inates the upper-arm cu. The device
detects pressure oscillaons generated beat-to-beat by your heart. It measures two pressures called: Systolic
pressure and Diastolic pressure, as well as your pulse rate.
If in any doubt about your health, please consult your medical team rst and follow their advice closely.

What is Blood Pressure?
When your heart beats, it pumps blood around your body to give it the energy and oxygen it needs. As the blood
moves, it pushes against the sides of the blood vessels. The strength of this pushing is your blood pressure. If
your blood pressure is too high, it puts extra strain on your arteries (and your heart) and this may lead to heart
aacks and strokes.
Having high blood pressure (hypertension) is not usually something that you feel or noce. It does not tend to
produce obvious signs or symptoms. The only way to know your blood pressure, is to have it measured using a
Blood Pressure Monitor.
Blood pressure is measured in ‘millimetres of mercury’ (mmHg) and is wrien as two numbers. For example, if
your reading is 120/80mmHg, your blood pressure is ‘120 over 80’.
Every blood pressure reading consists of two numbers or levels. They are shown as one number on top of the
other.
The top number is your Systolic blood pressure. The highest pressure when your heart beats and pushes the
blood round your body.
The boom one is your Diastolic blood pressure. The lowest pressure when your heart rests between beats.
The blood pressure chart on the following page shows ranges of high, low and healthy blood pressure readings.
The blood pressure chart is suitable for adults of any age as the level for high blood pressure does not change
with age.
Globally, around 40% of adults aged 25 and over had raised blood pressure in 2008 (World Health Organisaon,
WHO).
What Do Blood Pressure Readings Mean?
Only one of the numbers has to be higher or lower than it should be to count as either high blood pressure or
low blood pressure:
90 over 60 (90/60) or less: You may have low blood pressure.
More than 90 over 60 (90/60) and less than 120 over 80 (120/80): Your blood pressure reading is ideal and
healthy.
More than 120 over 80 and less than 140 over 90 (120/80—140/90): You have a normal blood pressure reading
but it is a lile higher than it should be, and you should try to lower it.
140 over 90 (140/90) or higher (over a number of weeks): You may have high blood pressure (hypertension) and
should seek medical advice.
If in doubt about your readings, contact your medical team for advice.

How Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor Works
Environmentalists and Governments are against using mercury in clinical pracce and this is in line with other
countries in Europe. As a result mercury column devices for measuring blood pressure are no longer available.
Oscillatory devices, such as the Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor, produce a digital readout and work on the
principle that blood owing through an artery between Systolic and Diastolic pressures causes vibraons in the
arterial wall, which can be detected and transduced into electrical signals.
Common Quesons
Why does my blood pressure uctuate throughout the day?
Individual blood pressure varies throughout the day. Blood pressure can vary throughout the day for many
reasons: exercise, weather, stress, eang, drinking etc. It is also aected by the way you wear your cu and your
measurement posion, so try to be consistent in the way you take measurements. Always use the same arm to
measure with the Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor.
If you are unsure about a measurement and you wish to repeat it, please wait 3-5 minutes before you take a
second reading to allow the blood ow in your arm to recover.
Why is the blood pressure reading done in hospital dierent from the one at
home?
There is also the “white coat“ factor in hospital, which might make the result higher than the ones at home. More
important is the day-to-day changes or longitudinal prole you observe. Is your blood pressure tending towards
beer or worse values over me?
Can I use it on my Wrist?
The Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor is NOT designed to be used on anywhere other than the Upper-Arm. Do
not use it on your wrist, as bones and tendons interfere with an accurate blood pressure reading taken at the wrist
and the Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor is not calibrated for use at the wrist.
Do I need to rest between readings?
Rest for 3-5 minutes before placing the Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor to your upper-arm and adopng the
correct posture as described on Page 14-15.

14
Correct Placement on Upper-Arm
Correct placement on the upper-arm and posture will assure a more accurate use and reading by the
Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 monitor.

Rest your arm on a table in front of you
so the monitor is level with your heart.

Tips Before taking First Blood Pressure
Measurement
Tip #1: Try to take your blood pressure at the same me each day. It
will vary throughout the day. Doing this in the morning as part of
your daily roune is a good me, or whenever your medical team
recommends you perform a reading.
Tip #2: Sit down and relax for 2-3 minutes before each
measurement. This is important to get consistent readings. It is oen
easier to do this at home when there is less stress.
Tip #3: Sit in a chair, with feet at on the oor, legs uncrossed. Rest
your arms on a table located in front of you so that the Acv8rlives
Blood Pressure2 Monitor is level with your heart.
Tip #4: Remove clothing on the upper-arm so that the cu can be
placed on bare skin.
Tip #5: When placing the Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor on
your upper-arm, note how the RED ARROW is placed over the artery
that runs along the inside of your upper-arm/elbow.
Tip #6: The boom of the cu should be 1-2 cm (about 1 or 2
ngers) above the bend in your arm.
Tip #7: We provide the Acv8rlives Blood Pressure2 Monitor in two
sized cus so that the cu is secured rmly together at the Velcro
patches to stop the cu slipping up or down on the upper-arm for a
more consistent reading.
Tip #8: Keep sll for the duraon of measurement. Moving, talking,
eang, drinking or any other acvity will produce errors.
Tip #9: Use the same arm each me. Ideally the le arm (if you are
right-handed) or vice versa.
Tip #10: Completely deate the cu and wait 3-5 minutes between
readings if you decide to take another measurement. Remember
that the cu applies pressure and this restricts blood ow into your
lower-arm.
Relax for 2-3 minutes
before a measurement
Cu should be 1-2cm or 1-2
ngers above the fold at your
elbow
Wait 3-5 minutes between
measurements
Always use the same arm
