INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION
General Description
Readings taken bythe BM-201 are equivalent to those obtained by a
trained observer using the cuff and stethoscope auscultationmethod.
This manual contains important safety and care information, and
provides step by step instructions for using the product.
Read the manual thoroughly before using the product.
Features:
60mm×40.5 mm Digital LCD display
3rd technology: Measuring during inflation
(The updated technology in the world)
Indications for Use
The Blood Pressure Monitor is digital monitors intended for use in
measuring blood pressureand heartbeat rate with arm circumference ranging
from 22 cm to 32 cm ( about 8¾˝-12½˝ ) .
It is intended for adult indoor use only.
Safety Information
The signs below might be in the user manual, labeling or other component.
They are the requirement of standard and using.
CAUTION
This device is intended for adult use only.
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.
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.
If the cuff pressure exceeds 40 kPa (300 mmHg), the unit will automatically deflate. Should
the cuff not deflate when pressures exceeds 40 kPa (300 mmHg), detach the cuff from the
arm and press the START/STOP button to stop inflation.
The equipment is not AP/APG equipment and not suitable for use in the presence of a
flammable anesthetic mixture with air of with oxygen or nitrous oxide.
The operator shall not touch output of batteries and the patient simultaneously.
To avoid measurement errors, please avoid the condition of strong electromagnetic field
radiated interference signal or electrical fast transient/burst signal.
The user must check that the equipment functions safely and see that it is in proper working
condition before being used.
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.
Manufacturer will make available on request circuit diagrams, component parts list etc.
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.
Please use the device under the environment which was provided in the user manual.
Otherwise, the performance and lifetime of the device will be impacted and reduced.
During use, the patient will be in contact with the cuff. The materials of the cuff have been
tested and found to comply with requirements of ISO 10993-5:2009 and ISO 10993-10:2010.

INTRODUCTION BEFORE YOU START
Measurement Principle
This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring method to detect
blood pressure. Before every measurement, the unit establishes a
“zeropressure”equivalentto the airpressure.Thenitstartsinflatingthe

beat-to-beat pulsatile, which is used to determine the systolic and

Tie the cuff
1.
Tie the cuff on your upper arm,
then position the tube off-center
toward the inner side of arm in
line with the little finger. Or
position the artery mark over
the main artery (on the inside of
your arm). Note: Locate the main
artery by pressing with 2 fingers
approximately 2 cm above the
bend of your elbow on the inside
of your left arm. Identify where
the pulse can be felt the
strongest. This is your main
artery.
2.
The cuff should be snug but not
too tight. You should be able to
insert one finger between the
cuff and yourarm.
3.
Sit comfortably with yourtested
arm resting on a flatsurface.
4.
PatientswithHypertension:
The middle of the cuff should be
at the level of the right atrium of the heart;
Before starting measurement, please sit
comfortably with legs uncrossed,
feet flat on the floor, back and arm supported.
Rest for 5 minutes before
measuring.
Wait at least 3 minutes between
measurements. This allows your
blood circulation to recover.
For a meaningful comparison,
try to measure under similar
conditions. For example, take daily
measurements at approximately
the same time, position of upper
arm, or as directed by a physician.

In order to get the best performance, pleasefollow the
What are systolic pressure and diastolic pressure?
instructions below.
When ventricles contract and pump blood
out of the heart, the blood pressure reaches
Systolic

Diastolic
blood entering
its maximum value in the cycle, which is called
systolic pressure. When the ventricles relax,
the blood pressure reaches its minimum value
in the cycle,which is called diastolicpressure.

What is the standard blood pressure classification?
Put in a dry place and
avoid thesunshine
Avoid intense shaking
and collisions
Using wet cloths to
remove dirt
Avoid touching water,
clean it with a dry cloth in case.
Avoid dusty and unstable
temperature environment
Do not attempt to clean the
resuable cuff with water and
never immerse the cuff in water.
The blood pressure classification
published by World Health Organization
(WHO) and International Society of
Hypertension (ISH) in 1999 is as follows:
CAUTION
Only a physician can tell your normal BP range.
Please contact a physician if your measuring
result falls out of the range.

ABOUT BLOOD PRESSURE TROUBLESHOOTING
Whydoes mybloodpressure
fluctuate throughout the
day?
1.
Individual blood pressure varies
multiple times everyday. It is also affected
by the way you tie your cuff and your
measurement position, so please take the
measurement under the same conditions.
2.
If the person takes medicine, the
pressure will varymore.
3.
Wait at least 3 minutes for another
measurement.
This section includes a list of error messages and frequently
asked questionsforproblems youmay encounter with yourblood
pressure monitor. If the products not operating as you think it
should,checkherebeforearrangingforservice.
Why do I get a different
blood pressure at home
comparedtothehospital?
The blood pressure is different even
throughout the day due to weather,
emotion, exercise etc, Also, there is the
“white coat” effect, which means blood
pressure usually increases in clinical
settings.
Is the result the same
if measuring on the
right arm?
What you need to pay
attention to when you measure
your blood pressure at home:
If the cuff is tied properly.
If the cuff is too tight or too loose.
If the cuff is tied on the upper arm.
If you feel anxious.
Taking 2-3 deep breaths before
beginning will be better for
measuring.
Advice: Relax yourself for 4-5
minutes until you calm down.
It is ok for both arms, but there
will be some different results for
different people. We suggest you
measure the same arm every time.
