AFIB/MAM mode (highly recommended)

In AFIB/MAM mode, 3 measurements are automatically taken in

succession and the result is then automatically analysed and

displayed. Because blood pressure constantly fluctuates, a result

determined in this way is more reliable than one produced by a single

measurement. AFIB detection is only activated in AFIB/MAM mode.

 When you select the 3 measurements, the MAM-symbol AS

appears in the display.



The bottom, right hand section of the display shows a 1, 2 or 3 to

indicate which of the 3 measurements is currently being taken.

 There is a break of 15 seconds between the measurements

(15 seconds are adequate according to «Blood Pressure Moni-

toring, 2001, 6:145-147» for oscillometric instruments). A count

down indicates the remaining time.

 The individual results are not displayed. Your blood pressure

will only be displayed after all 3 measurements are taken.

 Do not remove the cuff between measurements.

 If one of the individual measurements was questionable, a

fourth one is automatically taken.

4. Taking a Blood Pressure Measurement using this

Device

Checklist for taking a reliable measurement

1. Avoid activity, eating or smoking immediately before the

measurement.

2. Sit down for at least 5 minutes before the measurement and relax.

3. Always measure on the same arm (normally left). It is recom-

mended that doctors perform double arm measurements on a

patients first visit in order to determine which arm to measure in

the future. The arm with the higher blood pressure should be

measured.

4. Remove close-fitting garments from the upper arm. To avoid

constriction, shirt sleeves should not be rolled up - they do not

interfere with the cuff if they are laid flat.

5. Always ensure that the correct cuff size is used (marking on the

cuff).

 Fit the cuff closely, but not too tight.

 Make sure that the cuff is positioned 2 cm above the elbow.

 The artery mark located on the cuff (ca. 3 cm long bar) must

lie over the artery which runs down the inner side of the arm.

 Support your arm so it is relaxed.

 Ensure that the cuff is at the same height as your heart.

6. Slide the lock switch 9 down to the «unlock» position. Press

the START/STOP button 1 to start measuring.

7. The cuff will now pump up automatically. Relax, do not move

and do not tense your arm muscles until the measurement

result is displayed. Breathe normally and do not talk.

8. When the correct pressure is reached, the pumping stops and the

pressure falls gradually. If the required pressure was not reached,

the device will automatically pump some more air into the cuff.

9. During the measurement, the pulse indicator AP flashes in the

display.

10.The result, comprising the systolic AT and the diastolic AK

blood pressure and the pulse rate AL is displayed. Note also the

explanations on further display symbols in this booklet.

11.When the device has finished measuring, remove the cuff.

12.Switch off the device. (The monitor does switch off automati-

cally after approx. 1 min.).



You can stop the measurement at any time by pressing the

START/STOP button (e.g. if you feel uneasy or an

unpleasant pressure sensation).



If the systolic blood pressure is known to be very high,

it can be an advantage to set the pressure individually.

Press the START/STOP button after the monitor has been

pumped up to a level of approx. 30 mmHg (shown on the

display). Keep the button pressed until the pressure is

about 40 mmHg above the expected systolic value – then

release the button.

5. Appearance of the Atrial Fibrillation Indicator for

early Detection (only in AFIB/MAM mode)

This device is able to detect atrial fibrillation (AFIB). This symbol

indicates that atrial fibrillation was detected during the measure-

ment. If AFIB is present during blood pressure measurement, the

AFIB indicator is displayed flashing at the end of the triple measure-

ments. It is highly recommended to take an additional AFIB/MAM

measurement an hour later to confirm the result. If after repeated

measurement the AFIB symbol is no longer displayed there is no

cause for concern. In such case it is recommended to measure

again the next day.

However, if the symbol appears on a regular basis (e.g. several

times a week with measurements taken daily) we advise you to

visit your doctor. Please provide the following explanation:
