Healthy Living
BE HAPPY! - A positive attitude is a big part of a healthy
body. Try not to get too stressed out over things. Daily
relaxation techniques such as gentle yoga or even quiet time
by yourself can do a lot of good for the mind and body. Stay
focused on the good things in life. Begin by congratulating
yourself for that short walk you just took or the smart food
choice you made. It's your first step to a healthier life!
KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR WEIGHT! - Surprisingly, losing
even a small amount of weight can often times help control
high blood pressure. Talk with your doctor to find a "healthy"
weight for you and strive to come within a range of it.
Remember to consult your physician prior to beginning
an exercise program, vitamin/mineral/dietary changes or
programsand blood pressure monitoring.

This blood pressure monitor is the first step to living a
healthier life. But monitoring your blood pressure at home
is just the beginning, It’s also important to:
EXERCISE REGULARLY -Start out by taking a short
walk each day. Before you know it, you'll feel energized.
That's because along with being an easy way to shed a
few pounds, walking also helps your bones and heart
become stronger.
EAT RIGHT - Remember, you are what you eat! So when
you reach for a snack, try grabbing a piece of fruit or a veg-
etable. When cooking meals at home try to use fats and
oils sparingly. Sometimes a healthy diet is the best medi-
cine of all! It's also a good idea to monitor your sodium
intake because about one-third of individuals who have
high blood pressure are also sodium sensitive.

blood pressure is what moves blood through the body,
supplying oxygen and nutrients to every organ.
Commonly Asked Questions
When the heart contracts it sends blood out
into the body. This force of blood within the
arteries is called systolic
pressure.
The pressure that remains as
the heart relaxes between beats is called
diastolic pressure .
Blood pressure is
recorded as systolic
over diastolic, as
shown here.

Commonly Asked Questions
Why Should I Monitor My Blood Pressure At Home?
By monitoring at home, you may manage your health in between
doctor visits. Home monitoring also provides you with a record
of blood pressure measurements over time to give to your
doctor - a valuable tool in monitoring hypertension.
Home monitoring may also help alleviate White Coat
Hypertension.This term refers to the medical phenomena
which causes many individuals’ blood pressure to be higher
when taken in a medical office setting. That’s because many
times the stress of being in the doctor’s office may cause
blood pressure to rise as much as 20-50 points higher than nor-
mal. When monitoring at home, you may get a truer indication
of your blood pressure in a normal, relaxed state.
What Is Blood Pressure?
The commonly used term “blood pressure” refers to
the force or pressure that is exerted on the
body’s arteries as blood flows through them.
Each time the heart beats or contracts, it
produces pressure in the arteries. This

•Humidity
•Restlessness
•Lack of sleep

In addition to these factors you should talk with your physician
to see what may be affecting you.
How Do I Know I Have High Blood Pressure?
It’s nearly impossible to know if your blood pressure is elevated
without having it checked. People have the common
misconception that one can “feel” their blood pressure rise.
It is because of this mystery that hypertension has been
named “the silent killer.” Don’t let it sneak up on you! Start
monitoring your blood pressure every day with your new
Walgreens monitor. 7
What Is Considered Normal Blood Pressure?
The well-respected World Health Organization (WHO) has set
forth the following guidelines regarding high (commonly
referred to as hypertension), low and borderline blood
pressure.
Commonly Asked Questions
Why Does My Blood Pressure Fluctuate?
Because blood pressure changes with every beat of the heart it is
in constant fluctuation throughout any given day. In addition to
these natural changes there are other factors that may affect
blood pressure such as:
6

Walgreens monitors measure blood pressure and pulse by
using what’s called an oscillometric method, meaning they
measure the fluctuations in pressure. This is done by first
wrapping a fitted cuff around the upper arm (or wrist,
depending on the model). The monitor then automatically
fills the cuff with air creating pressure around the arteries
inside the wrist. Mounted inside of the cuff is a special
gauge that is capable of sensing the small oscillations

Commonly Asked Questions
Why Is It Important To Control My Blood Pressure?
Left uncontrolled, hypertension can place an incredible
amount of stress on your heart and arteries, both of which
become forced to work harder to keep blood flowing in a
healthy manner throughout the body. Over time, this stress
can result in health problems including over-enlargement
of the heart, loss of elasticity of the arteries, heart disease,
stroke and even death. Making some simple lifestyle
changes now can help you to stay healthy in the future.
Walgreens blood pressure monitors are intended for home
use. They are noninvasive, meaning no part of the monitor
enters your body, and provide systolic, diastolic and pulse
measurements. Walgreens monitors are recommended for
use by people over the age of 18 and are not suitable for
clinical use.
Intended Use

Accuracy
Walgreens monitors have been clinically tested against a
scientific device called a sphygmomanometer, considered
the gold standard in blood pressure measurement. All
Walgreens monitors have performed equivalent to
measurements taken with this scientific device and are
within the accuracy limits prescribed by the American
National Standard for Electronic or Automated
Sphygmomanometers.

Special Features
This Walgreens monitor with Heart Sense technology sens-
es your blood pressure before the measurement is complete.
The monitor then adjusts the air pressure amount according
to your individual level. The results are quick, cormfortable
measurements each time you check your blood pressure.
Memory Feature
Your Walgreens Automatic Wrist
monitor features a 3 party memory
capability or 3 "zones" - each zone
stores 40 measurements for a total storage capacity of 120
measurements. This unique feature allows 3 users to use
and store their blood pressure readings separately all on
one monitor!
Time and Date
This monitor automatically keeps track of the time and date
remains on when the monitor is not in use for easy reference.
Large Three Row Display
A large LCD displays the time, date and your blood pressure -
systolic over diastolic - to make measuring your blood pres-
sure easy to read.

(fluctuations) in pressure. These fluctuations are produced as
a result of the pressure the cuff has placed around the arm
and are, in a basic sense, the arteries pulsing (getting larger
and smaller) with each beat. The monitor then measures how
high and how quickly these pulses occur and converts that
information into a digital value. A special valve, called an
electrode, deflates the monitor automatically when the
measurement is complete.
Measurement Method
Accuracy
All Walgreens blood pressure monitors are safe and accurate
to use with arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature
beats and atrial fibrillation.

Important Reminders
While Taking a Measurement
Sit with your legs uncrossed and your feet flat on the
floor.
For consistency, it's a good idea to measure you blood
pressure using the same arm and at about the same time
each day. If possible, we suggest using the left arm.
✓
✓
Relax. Sit still and quietly while measuring. Talking or
moving may elevate measurements. Do not touch the cuff
or monitor during the measurement.
When taking multiple measurement right after each
other, make to wait at least 8-10 minutes in between.
Waiting allows your blood vessels to return to their nor-
mal state.
✓
✓
Applying the Cuff
1.Before taking a measure
ment, read the Important
Reminders on pages 15-16.
2.If you are wearing a long
sleeved shirt, roll up the
sleeve, but make sure that it
is not constricting circulation
to your arm. Remove any
jewelry or watches.
3.With your palm facing up,
place the monitor on your
wrist. Secure the cuff around
your wrist using the velcro so
it fits securely but is not too
tight.
4.Place your arm on a table.
The monitor should be facing
you. It is important to make
sure that the wrist cuff is at
the same level as your heart.

NOTE: Blood pressure constantly changes during the
course of a day. Occasionally, high or low readings do not
necessarily mean your monitor is malfunctioning or that
you are ill. It is important to speak with your doctor to learn
what your normal blood pressure is if you experience
abnormal measurements.
When you take a measurement the monitor automatically
stores it in memory space number one. As you continue to
take measurements the monitor will push the previous
measurement back one space. In other words, the value in
space one will always be the most recent blood pressure
measurement taken.
Your monitor features a 3 party memory capability or 3
"zones" - each zone stores 40 measurements a for a total
memory capacity of 120 readings. This unique feature allows
3 users to use and store their blood pressure measurements
separately all on one monitor. This feature is also useful for
one user to track their blood pressure throughout the day:
morning, afternoon, and evening.
Storing Measurements
1.Press the (Up) or (Down) button to select a user zone.
You will see a number appear: 1, 2, or 3. (Fig. 1)
2.Press the (M) MEMORY button and the average of the last 3
readings will be displayed for that zone. For example, if you
select zone No. 1 and you press MEMORY, the average of
thelast 3 measurements stored in zone No. 1 will appear on
the display.
3.Press (Down) to view the next stored measurement;
press (Up) to go back to the previous measurement.
4.To go back to the main screen for "Recalling Stored
Measurements" and to choose another zone, press (Up)
to scroll through the measurements until you reach the most
recent measurement and press once more. You can also
press START/STOP to return to the main screen.
5.Follow steps 1-3 once again to review measurements in
another zone.

It’s important to treat your monitor with care. Here are some
basic tips:
Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight, high humidity,
and extreme temperature changes.
Try not to drop it on the floor.
Do not take the monitor or the cuff apart. Do not attempt
to fix any of the monitor's parts at home. If your monitor
needs repair, see details in warranty section.
Keep the monitor free of dust and other materials. Avoid
getting any part of the monitor or cuff extremely wet. If
the monitor needs cleaning it’s best to wipe it with a
cloth slightly dampened with water. We recommend
that you clean your monitor about once a month.

SEA POSITIVO. Una mente sana está íntimamente
ligada a un cuerpo sano. Las técnicas de relajación diaria
como la meditación y el yoga pueden ser lo que necesite
para aliviar el estrés diario. Centre su mente hacia las
cosas positivas de la vida y antes de que se dé cuenta de
los aspectos negativos no parecerán tan malos. Comience
con esos paseos cortos o con esa manzana que acaba de
comerse. Es su primer paso.
¡VIGILE EL PESO! A veces una pequeña pérdida
de peso le puede ayudar a controlar la presión arterial. ¡Si
ya ha comenzado a comer sano y a permanecer activo, ya
puede despedirse de su peso!
Recuerde consultar con su médico antes de comenzar
con el ejercicio, tomar vitaminas/minerales, realizar cam-
bios de dieta o programas de control de presión arterial.

Este medidor de presión arterial es primer paso a una vida
sana. Sin embargo, el control de su presión arterial en casa
es sólo el primer paso para una vida sana. También es
importante:
PERMANECER ACTIVO. Comience con un
corto paseo diario. Con el tiempo comenzará a sentirse con
más energía. ¡El andar no sólo le ayuda a perder peso, sino
también a cimentar unos huesos más fuertes y un corazón
más sano!
COMA SANO. Un buen comienzo sería agregar
más frutas y verduras a su dieta. Los estudios han
demostrado que la mejor medicación es atenerse a una
dieta alto en estos alimentos, además de cereales inte-
grales, pescado y productos bajos en grasa. También es
importante controlar el consumo de sodio, pues un tercio
de la gente con la tensión alta es sensible a este mineral.
