Intended Use
The MDMouse blood pressure monitor is a noninvasive blood pressure measurement system
intended to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressures and pulse rate of an adult indi-
vidual, over age 18, at home by using a non-invasive technique in which an inflatable cuff is
wrapped around the left index finger. The cuff circumference is designed to fit adult Left In-
dex Fingers from 1.5 to 3.5 inches (3.7-8.8 cm) in circumference.
Caution
This device is not intended to be a diagnostic device. Self-diagnosis and self-treatment
are dangerous. Contact your physician if you observe values indicating hypertension.
People with severe blood flow problems or disorders should consult their physician prior
to using any blood pressure monitoring device as cuff inflation can cause damage or in-
ternal bleeding.
Do not take measurements right after drinking alcohol, smoking, exercise, or eating as
those activities may distort the results.
Performance can be affected by a number of health factors including age, diabetes,
common arrhythmias, ventricular premature beats, atrial fibrillation, arterial sclerosis,
and pregnancy.
This unit will not serve as a cure for any symptoms of your heart or disease. The meas-
urement result is only for reference. Always consult your physician if any measuring re-
sults are to be interpreted.
Always follow the operation procedures described in this manual to measure your blood
pressure correctly.
Do not use the MDMouse to measure blood pressure on infants or children (it is OK to
use as a normal computer mouse).
Do not use the unit on infants or persons who cannot express one's intention.
Do not inflate the cuff without being wrapped on an index finger.
Do not drop the MDMouse.
Safeguard the unit from strong impact.
Measurement may be inaccurate if the device is used close to a television, microwave
oven, mobile phone, X-ray or other devices with strong electrical field.
Do not attempt to service the unit yourself –please refer to an authorized repair facility
if your MDMouse system needs repair.
Be sure to store this manual for future reference.

Understanding Blood Pressure
What is blood pressure?
The heart creates a force as it pushes blood into the arteries
and through the blood circulation system. The arteries create
another force as they resist the blood flow. Blood pressure is
the result of these two forces. The more blood your heart
pumps and the narrower your arteries, the higher your blood
pressure.
Blood pressure is expressed by two numbers which show your “Systolic” pressure (the higher
number, when the heart is pumping out blood) and “Diastolic” pressure (the lower number,
when the heart is at rest between beats).
What constitutes a high blood pressure?
According to the Joint National Committee 7 (JNC 7) definitions,
when systolic blood pressure exceeds 140 mmHg or diastolic
blood pressure exceeds 90 mmHg, this constitutes high blood
pressure (see figure below).
How can I tell how high my blood pressure is?
The MDMouse application displays measurement results (including systolic blood pressure, di-
astolic blood pressure, and pulse) based on the Joint National Committee 7 (JNC 7) classification
of blood pressure levels. The color-coded displays provide a convenient way of gauging the
condition of your blood pressure.
It is recommended that you consult a physician to fully understand blood pressure levels.
Changes in Blood Pressure
A person's blood pressure is constantly changing. Blood pressure can fluctuate considerably
through the course of a single day, and it is also affected by the seasons and by the weather.
One or two readings are not sufficient to get an accurate picture of your blood pressure. Ideally,
you should get into the habit of checking your blood pressure at fixed time several times a day,
every day, and keep a detailed record of these readings. This record can then be e-mailed or
faxed to your doctor, helping you to monitor your health on an ongoing basis.
A normal, healthy person's blood pressure fluctuates within a range of approximately ±10
mmHg.
