Safety information
Consecutive blood pressure measurements should be repeated after 1
minute pause or after the arm has been held up in order to allow the
accumulated blood to flow away.
If the arm circumference size is beyond the measuring range of the CUFF,
it can’t be measured and used, because it will prevent the blood from flowing
smoothly and it causes wrong measurement data.
Don’t kink the connection tube during use, otherwise the cuff pressure
may increase continuously which can prevent the blood flow and result in
harmful injury to the PATIENT.
Too frequent measurements can cause injury to the PATIENT, due to blood
flow interference.
Don’t apply the CUFF over a wound, as it can cause further injury to the
PATIENT.
The device is not suitable for use on neonatal patients, pregnant women,
patients with implanted electronic devices, patients with pre-eclampsia,
premature ventricular beats, atrial fibrillation, peripheral arterial disease and
patients undergoing intravascular therapy or arterio-venous shunt or people
who received a mastectomy.
Please consult your doctor prior to using the unit if you suffer from illnesses.
When using this device, please pay attention to the following situation
which may interrupt the blood flow and influence the blood circulation of patient,
thus cause harmful injury to the patient: the connection tube kinking too
frequent; the application of the cuff and its pressurization on any arm where
intravascular access or therapy or an arterio-venous (A-V) shunt is present;
inflating the cuff on the side of a mastectomy.
Do not inflate the cuff on the same limb where other monitoring ME
equipment is applied around simultaneously, because this could cause
temporary loss of function of those.
Please check that operation of the device does not result in prolonged
impairment of the patient’s blood circulation.
