WHAT IS AN IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT
ABOUT CUFF INFLATION METER
The UA-767 Plus Blood Pressure Monitor provides a blood pressure and
pulse rate measurement even when an irregular heartbeat occurs. The
Irregular Heartbeat symbol will appear in the display window in the
event an Irregular Heartbeat has occured during measurement. An irregular
heartbeat is defined as a heartbeat that varies by 25% from the average of all
heartbeat intervals during the blood pressure measurement. It is important
that you relax, remain still and refrain from talking during measurements.
NOTE: We recommend contacting your physician if you see this
symbol frequently.
The Cuff Inflation Meter is located on the left side of the display screen to tell
you when the blood pressure monitor is inflating and deflating the cuff. The
Cuff Inflation Meter moves up during inflation and moves down during
deflation.

ABOUT AVERAGE READING
The UA-767 Plus provides an average blood pressure reading
based on the total measurements stored in memory. Press and
quickly release the Memory ("M") button to see the average
blood pressure reading. Average pulse rate readings are not
provided by this monitor. The average blood pressure reading
will appear and the number of measurements stored in
memory will flash several times.
The Pressure Rating Indicator™ is a feature which pro-
vides a snapshot of your blood pressure classification
based on your measurements. This will let you quickly
know what your blood pressure readings mean. Each
segment of the bar indicator corresponds to the Seventh
Report of the Joint National Committee (JNC7) on
Prevention, Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood
Pressure from the National Heart, Lung and Blood
Institute - May 2003. For a more detailed look at this
blood pressure classification, please refer to “Assessing
High Blood Pressure” on page E-13.
:The indicator displays a segment, based on the current measurement,
corresponding to the JNC7 Classification.
NOTE: Due to other risk factors (e.g. diabetes, obesity, smoking, etc.) in
addition to your blood pressure measurement, the Pressure Rating Indicator
is approximate. Please consult with your physician for interpretation and
diagnosis of your blood pressure measurements.
NOTE: Residents outside of the United States (e.g.. Canada and Mexico)
should refer to the WHO Classification Table on page E-13 for assessment
of their blood pressure measurement.
