INTENDED USE
The iHealth Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor (Electronic Sphygmomanometer) is intended for use
in a professional setting or at home and is a non-invasive blood pressure measurement system. It
is designed to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressures and pulse rate of an adult
individual by using a technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm. The
measurement range of the cuff circumference is 8.6”!(."ABC”(22cm-48cm).
