Intended use of Braun ExactFit™ 3
Braun upper arm blood pressure monitor has been developed for accurate and comfortable blood
pressure measurements. The measuring accuracy of Braun's upper arm blood pressure monitor was
tested at the time of manufacture and was proven by clinical research in accordance with ESH. This
device has not been tested for and hence is not intended for neonatal and infant subjects, pregnant,
including pre-eclamptic users.
What you should know about blood pressure
Blood pressure constantly changes throughout the day. It rises sharply in the early morning and
declines during the late morning. Blood pressure rises again in the afternoon and finally drops to
a low level at night. Also, it may vary in a short period of time. Therefore, readings from successive
measurements can fluctuate.
This device will display your blood pressure reading referring to two values: systolic and diastolic.
The systolic blood pressure (the upper number) indicates how much pressure your blood is exerting
7
against your artery walls when the heart beats. The diastolic blood pressure (the lower number)
indicates how much pressure your blood is exerting against your artery walls while the heart is resting
between beats. The pulse value is also displayed after each measurement.
Blood pressure measured in a doctor's office only provides a momentary value. Repeated
measurements at home better reflect one's actual blood pressure values under everyday conditions.
Moreover, many people have a different blood pressure when they measure at home, because they
tend to be more relaxed than when in the doctor's office. Regular blood pressure measurements taken
at home can provide your doctor with valuable information on your normal blood pressure values
under actual «everyday» conditions.
The ESH (European Society of Hypertension) and WHO (World Health Organisation) have set up the
following standard blood pressure values when measured with a resting pulse at home:

DIA = diastole

Safety information and important precautions
1
To ensure accurate measuring results, read the complete instructions for use carefully.
People suffering from cardiac arrhythmia, vascular constriction, arteriosclerosis in the extremities,
diabetes or users of cardiac pacemakers should consult their doctor before measuring their blood
pressure themselves. Deviations in blood pressure values may occur in such cases.
If your blood pressure reading is in the severe hypertension range with values of 180 mmHg systolic
and above, and/or 110 mmHg diastolic and above; and you find you have one or two readings in this
range - please see your doctor straight away.
If you are under medical treatment or taking any medication, please consult your doctor first.
The use of this blood pressure monitor is not intended as a substitute for a consultation with your doctor.
Avoid compression or restriction of the connection tubing. Continuous cuff pressure due to the
connection tubing kinking can affect blood flow and cause possible injury to the user.
It is not recommended to use this device on the arm of the same side of the body on which the user
had a mastectomy.
Measuring blood pressure too frequently can cause injury to the user due to blood flow interference.
It is not recommended to apply the cuff to a limb on which there is intravascular access or on which
an arterio-venous (A-V) shunt is present. This can cause temporary interference of blood flow and
potential injury to the user.
