RISK CATEGORY INDEX
This monitor comes equipped with a Risk Category
Index that automatically compares each reading
to defined levels established by the U.S. National
Institutes of Health’s (NIH) National Heart Lung and
Blood Institute as described earlier in this manual,
and provides a helpful cue if your reading falls into
one of the stages that could potentially indicate
increased risk. No cue is given if the reading falls
in the normal range as defined by NIH. Please
note that cues provided by this monitor are only
intended to assist you in using this table. The table
and cues are only provided for convenience to help
you understand your non-invasive blood pressure
reading as it relates to the NIH information. They are
not a substitute for a medical examination by your
physician. It is important for you to consult with your
physician regularly. Your physician will tell you your
normal blood pressure range as well as the point at
which you may actually be considered to be at risk.
IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT DETECTOR (IHB)
The appearance of the icon indicates that
a pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular
heartbeat was detected during measurement. Usually
this is not a cause for concern. However, if the symbol
appears often, we recommend you seek medical
advice. Please note that the device does not replace
a cardiac examination, but serves to detect pulse
irregularities at an early stage.
Movement, shaking or talking during the
measurement can result in pulse irregularities that
may cause the appearance of this icon. Therefore,
it is of great importance to not move or talk during
measurement.
