Indications for Use
1. The iProvèn Blood Pressure Monitor is digital monitors intended for use
in measuring blood pressure and heartbeat rate with arm circumference ranging
from 8¾˝ to 16½˝ (22 cm to 42 cm)
2. The monitor detects the appearance of irregular heartbeats during measurement
and gives a warning signal with readings.
3. It is intended for adult use in the home/domestic setting only.
Contraindications
1. The device is contraindicated for any person who is connected to a wearable or
implantable electronic device or instrument such as a pacemaker or debrillator.
2. The device is not intended to be a diagnostic device. Contract your physician if
hypertensive values are indicated.
Measurement Principle
This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring method to detect blood
pressure. Before every measurement, the unit establishes a“zero pressure”
equivalent to the air pressure. It then starts to inate the arm cu, while the
unit detects pressure oscillations generated by beat-to-beat pulsations, which
are used to determine the systolic and diastolic pressure as well as pulse
rate. The device also compares the longest and shortest time intervals of
detected pulse waves to the mean time interval and then calculates the
standard deviation. The device will display a warning signal with the reading
to indicate the detection of irregular heartbeat when the dierence between
the time intervals is excessive.
Safety Information
The below icons may appear in the user manual, on labeling, or on other components.
They are the required standard for use.

This device is intended for adult use only. This device is intended for none-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 is used to measure patients with common arrhythmias, such as atrial
or ventricular premature beats or atrial brillation, the best results may occur with
deviation. Please consult your physician about the result.
If the cu pressure exceeds 40 kPa (300 mmHg), the unit will automatically deate.
Should the cu not deate when pressure exceeds 40 kPa (300 mmHg), detach the
cu from the arm and press the corresponding user button to stop ination.

position the tube o-center toward the inner
side of arm in line with pinky nger.
Or position the artery mark over the main
artery (on the inside of your arm).
Note: Locate the main artery by pressing with
2 ngers 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 cu should be snug but not
too tight. You should be able to insert
one nger between the cu and
your arm.
3. Sit comfortably with your left arm
resting on a at surface.
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

What are systolic pressure and diastolic pressure?
When ventricles contract and pump
blood out of the heart, the blood pressure
reaches 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 diastolic pressure.
Irregular Heartbeat Detection
An irregular heartbeat is detected when a heartbeat rhythm varies while the unit is
measuring the systolic and diastolic blood pressure. During each measurement, this
equipment records the heartbeat intervals and works out the standard deviation. If the
calculated value is larger than or equal to 15,the irregular heartbeat symbol appears
on the symbol when the measurement results are displayed.
The appearance of the IHB icon indicates that a pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular
heartbeat was detected during measurement. Usually this is NOT a cause for concern. However,
if the symbol appears often, we recommend you seek medical advice. Please note that the
device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse irregularities at an
early stage.
CAUTION
What is the standard blood pressure classification?
Only a physician can tell your normal BP range. Please
contact a physician if your measuring result falls out of the
range. Kindly note that only a physician could tell whether
your blood pressure value has reached a dangerous point.
The blood pressure classification published by
World Health Organization (WHO) and
International Society of Hypertension (ISH) in
1999 is as follows:
SYS
DIA
<120
<80
120-129
80-84
130-139
85-89
140-159
90-99
160-179
100-109

Why does my blood pressure uctuate
throughout the day?
1. Individual blood pressure varies
multiple times everyday. It is also
aected by the way you tie your cu
and your measurement position, so
please take the measurement under
the same conditions.
2.If the person takes medicine, the
pressure will vary more.
3.Wait at least 3 minutes for
another measurement.
Why do I get a dierent
blood pressure at home
compared to the hospital?
The blood pressure is dierent even
throughout the day due to weather,
emotion, exercise etc, Also, there is
the “white coat” eect, which means
blood pressure usually increases in
clinical settings.
Is the result the same
if measuring on the
right arm?
It is ok for both arms, but there
will be some dierent results for
dierent people. We suggest you
measure the same arm every time.
What you need to pay
attention to when you measure
your blood pressure at home:
If the cu is tied properly.
If the cu is too tight or too loose.
If the cu 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.
