Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON R3 Intellisense Wrist
Blood Pressure Monitor.
This remarkable, compact and easy to use instrument is ideal for
people who frequently monitor their own blood pressure. The
small, pre-formed wrist cuff is very convenient and easy to apply.
With a push of a button the OMRON Wrist Blood Pressure
Monitor measures your blood pressure and pulse and displays
the reading on a clear digital panel. Perfect for quick, easy
readings at home, at work, and while travelling. It also stores up
to 42 sets of measurements in memory and displays an average
reading based on the three most recent measurements taken
within 10 minutes of the last reading. (If there are only two
readings in memory for that period, the average will be based on
two readings. If there is one reading in memory for that period,
the average will be based on one reading.)
The OMRON Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor uses the
oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement. This
means the unit detects the pulse wave vibrations in the artery of
your wrist and converts the oscillations into a digital reading.
Clinical research has proven a direct relationship between blood
pressure in the wrist and blood pressure in the arm. Changes in
wrist blood pressure reflect changes in arm blood pressure
because the arteries in the wrist and the arm are connected.
Frequently measuring the blood pressure in your wrist will
provide you and your doctor with an accurate indication of
changes in your true blood pressure.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before
using the unit. For specific information about your own
blood pressure, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.
