GENERAL INFORMATION
INDICATIONS FOR USE
This Instruction Manual is designed to assist the user with safe and effective operation of
the digital blood pressure monitor DSK-1031 (hereinafter – the “Device”). The device is de-
signed to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate reading in patients
aged 13 years and older. This device should not be used for neonate or infant. Consult your
doctor for blood pressure measurement in children or person in pregnancy or under pre-
eclamptic condition. The device is recommended for use in patients with unstable (non-
permanent) blood pressure or hypertension at home as a supplement to medical surveil-
lance. The cuff is suitable for a upper arm with a circumference of about 22 - 42 cm.
Blood
pressure is measured in the range from 50 to 250 mmHg for systolic and 40 to 180
mmHg for diastolic, in the range from 40 to 160 heartbeats per minute.
OPERATION PRINCIPLES
The device uses the oscillometric method of measurement. The cuff connected to the
electronic module is wrapped around the upper arm.
When you press the START/STOP button, the device starts the automatic inflation,
which is followed by the blood pressure measurement. The sensor element of the de-
vice detects slight pressure oscillations in the cuff produced by the expansion and
contraction of the brachial artery in response to each heartbeat. Inflation is stopped
when the cuff is pumped enough to determine diastolic and systolic pressure, where-
upon the air is discharged from the cuff. Rhythm and amplitude of the pressure waves
are measured and displayed on the LC display as a numerical value in millimeters of
mercury. The device has an arrhythmia indicator, as well as two memories with 60
cells in each calculating the average value.
NISSEI New Technologies
Fuzzy Inflation Algorithm – is an algorithm for automatic selection of the
cuff inflation pressure. Using this algorithm, the device by itself determines
the pressure level to which it is necessary to inflate the cuff based on the
patient’s systolic pressure. Owing to the Fuzzy Inflation algorithm the device
becomes easier to use, while the measurement gets more comfortable and
more accurate.
Arrhythmia indicator is a special icon on the display that informs on the
irregular heartbeat, while the measurement result is correct.

crease in pressure values. Therefore, blood pressure measured at home is often differ-
ent from that measured in the clinic. Since blood pressure increases at low tempera-
tures, measurements should be made at room temperature (about 20°C). In case the
product is stored in the environment with ambient temperature above 40˚C or below
10˚C, please leave it for at least 2 hours before taking a measurement. During the day,
the difference in the readings in healthy people may attain 30-50 mm Hg for systolic
(upper) pressure and up to 10 mm Hg for diastolic (lower) pressure. Dependence of
blood pressure on various factors is individual for each person. Therefore it is recom-
mended to keep a special recording of blood pressure readings. ONLY A DOCTOR MAY
ANALYZE TRENDS IN CHANGING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE BASED ON CORRESPONDING
RECORDINGS.
4. In case of cardiovascular diseases and a number of other diseases that require
the blood pressure monitoring, measurements should be carried out in the hours
specified by a doctor. REMEMBER THAT THE DIAGNOSTICS AND ANY TREATMENT OF
ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT ONLY BY A DOCTOR BASED ON
BLOOD PRESSURE READINGS OBTAINED BY A DOCTOR. MEDICAL DRUG ADMINISTRA-
TION OR CHANGE OF DOSAGES SHOULD BE MADE ONLY BY PRESCRIPTION OF AN AT-
TENDING DOCTOR.

plicated. IN THIS CASE, A DOCTOR SHALL PROVIDE RECOMMENDATIONS IN RELATION
TO USE OF THIS DEVICE.
6. KEEP QUIET DURING THE MEASUREMENT TO OBTAIN THE CORRECT BLOOD PRES-
SURE READING WHEN USING THE ELECTRONIC DEVICE. The blood pressure measure-
Touch control – is control of the device by slight touching it.

RECOMMENDATIONS ON CORRECT MEASUREMENTS
1. If treated with hemodialysis or anticoagulants, antiplatelets or steroids, refer to
your doctor about the blood pressure measurement.
2. Malfunctions are possible when the device is used near working mobile phones,
microwave ovens and other equipment generating electromagnetic radiation.
3. For correct measurement it is necessary to know that the BLOOD PRESSURE IS SUB-
JECT TO SHARP FLUCTUATIONS EVEN IN SHORT TIME INTERVALS. The blood pressure
level depends on many factors. It is commonly lower in summer and higher in winter.
Blood pressure varies along with atmospheric pressure and depends on the physical
exertion, emotional excitability, stress and diet. Medical drugs, alcohol and smoking
exert great influence as well. Occasionally, measurements in the clinic cause an in-

ment should be carried out in a quiet comfortable atmosphere at room temperature.
Exclude meal an hour before the measurement, and exclude smoking, soft drinks, and
alcohol 1.5-2 hours before the measurement.
7. Accuracy of the blood pressure measurement depends on matching the device
cuff and size of your arm. THE CUFF SHOULD NOT BE TOO SMALL OR TOO BIG.
8. Repeated measurements are carried out at 5-minute intervals to recover the blood
circulation. However, persons suffering from severe atherosclerosis, due to a significant
loss of elasticity of blood vessels, need longer intervals between measurements (10-15
minutes). This also concerns patients suffering from long-term diabetes. For more ac-
curate determination of blood pressure it is recommended to carry out a series of three
consecutive measurements and to calculate the average value of measurement results.
9. Do not use this device in an explosive environment such as near flammable anes-
thetics or inside oxygen chamber.
10. The system may fail to yield specified measurement accuracy if operated or stored
in temperature or humidity conditions outside the limits stated in the specifications
section of this manual.
11. Do not use cuffs or accessories other than those specified by the manufacturer.
Otherwise, correct measurement readings cannot be obtained.
12. Do not apply the cuff over wounded arm, arm under an intravascular access or
therapy or an arterio-venous shunt, or arm on the side of a mastectomy or lymph
node clearance. Otherwise injury may be resulted.
13. Make sure that inflation of the cuff is not causing prolonged impairment of blood
circulation. Also, be cautious about temporary loss of the functions of any other medi-
cal equipment if any monitoring equipment is used on the same limb with the blood
pressure measuring cuff.
14. To avoid harmful injury due to interfered blood flow from cuff inflation, make sure
that AIR HOSE is not kinking before measurement. Otherwise, cuff inflation may not
be conducted properly and prolonged.
15. Do not take out batteries or unplug the AC adaptor when the device is turned on.
Make sure to switch off the device before removing batteries or AC adaptor.
16. Do not touch the output plug of AC adaptor during measurement.
17. Do not inflate the cuff when it is not wrapped around your arm.
18. Do not apply the cuff on the limb which the intravenous drip infusion is imple-
mented.

Sit at the table, let the chair and
table support your back and
arm, and keep your feet flat on
the floor as you take the blood
pressure measurement (Fig. 4).
Make sure that the measure-
ment location on the upper
arm is at approximately the
same height as the heart, and
that the forearm is extended naturally on the table and does not move.
You may lie on your back and take the measurement (Fig.6). Look at the ceiling, stay calm,
and do not move your neck or body during the measurement. Again, make sure that the
measurement location on the arm is at approximately the same height as the heart.
Measured values may vary slightly, depending on the position during the
measurement. If the cuff is above/below the level of the heart, resulting reading
may be incorrect (lower/higher)
