Evaluating results
Cardiac arrhythmia:
This device can identify potential disruption of the heart rhythm
when measuring and, if necessary, indicates this after the
measurement with the symbol
This can be an indicator for arrhythmia. Arrhythmia is a
condition in which the heart rhythm is abnormal because of
flaws in the bioelectrical system that regulates the heartbeat.
The symptoms (skipped or premature heart beats, pulse
being slow or too fast) can be caused by factors such as heart
disease, age, physical make-up, excess stimulants, stress or
lack of sleep. Arrhythmia can only be determined through an
examination by your doctor.
If the symbol is shown on the display after the measure-
ment has been taken, repeat the measurement. Please ensure
that you rest for 5 minutes beforehand and do not speak or
move during the measurement. If the symbol
frequently, please consult your doctor.
Self-diagnosis and treatment based on the measurements can
be dangerous. Always follow your doctor's instructions.
Risk indicator:
The measurements can be classified and evaluated in
accordance with the following table.
However, these standard values serve only as a general
guideline, as the individual blood pressure varies in different
people and different age groups etc.
It is important to consult your doctor regularly for advice. Your
doctor will tell you your individual values for normal blood
pressure as well as the value above which your blood pressure
is classified as dangerous.

The bar chart on the display and the scale on the device show
which category the recorded blood pressure values fall into.
If the values of systole and diastole fall into two different
categories (e.g. systole in the High normal category and
diastole in the Normal category), the graphical classification on
the device always shows the higher category; for the example
given this would be High normal.
