INFORMATION OF BLOOD PRESSURE
What is blood pressure?
Blood is sent to the arteries with the action of a pump called heart (contraction and di-
lation).
The pressure of blood leaving the heart is called “blood pressure”, Blood Pressure pulsate
with each beat of the heart. The high blood pressure when the heart contracts are called
“Systolic pressure” and the low blood pressure when the heart dilates is called “diastolic
pressure”, The threshold value for hypertension in adults is dened by the World Health
Organization (WHO) as 140/90 mmHg.
Health and blood pressure!
When people reach middle age, the risk of hypertension markedly increase. With aging,
the blood vessels age rapidly, Furthermore, because of the obesity and lack of exercise,
cholesterols stick to blood vessels, causing them to lose elasticity, Therefore, watching
daily blood pressure help to evaluate our health condition.
Why do we need to monitor blood pressure at home?
By recording the blood pressure values and the measuring conditions such as the meas-
uring time or living state every day, you can know the uctuation tendency of your blood
pressure, which helps control your health. Furthermore, recording of daily blood pressure
values is very helpful for your doctor to diagnose.
How to manage your Blood Pressure if it works unsuitable?
If correct measurement is impossible even after checking the above-mentioned points,
consult at the store where you have purchased the unit or the nearest dealer without
touching the internal mechanism.
In some very rare cases, there may be error due to the physical condition of the person. In
such cases, please consult your doctor.
