Repeat the measurement if the irregular heartbeat symbol is displayed. When assessing your blood pressure, only use the results that have been recorded without any irregularities in your pulse. Consult your doctor if the irregular heartbeat symbol is displayed frequently. Only they can determine, through an examination, whether there is an abnormality.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Risk Indicator\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The risk indicator (5\u002F13) indicates which category the recorded blood pressure values fall into. If the measured values are in two different categories (e.g., systolic pressure in the \"high normal\" range and diastolic pressure in the \"normal\" range), the risk indicator always indicates the higher range – \"high normal\" in the example described. Note that these default values are for general guidance only, as individual blood pressures may vary. Please note that self-measurement at home usually results in values lower than those recorded at a doctor's surgery. Consult your doctor at regular intervals. Only they can give you personal target values for controlled blood pressure, particularly if you are receiving medical therapy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"image image_resized\" style=\"width:77.26%;\">\u003Cimg style=\"aspect-ratio:728\u002F507;\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fmanualsfact.com\u002Fmedia\u002Fposts\u002F69429a6dd416cb0901568c67\u002Fbeurer_upper_arm_blood_pressure_monitor_bm-38-risk.png\" alt=\"beurer_upper_arm_blood_pressure_monitor_bm-38-risk.png\" width=\"728\" height=\"507\" loading=\"lazy\">\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Low Blood Pressure\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>WARNING\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Low blood pressure (hypotension) can be a health hazard and cause dizziness or fainting. Blood pressure is considered low if systolic and diastolic pressure are below 90\u002F60 mmHg (source: National Health Service, 2023). Seek medical attention if you suddenly suffer from low blood pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Resting Indicator (Using HSD Diagnostics)\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>One of the most common errors made when taking a blood pressure measurement is not ensuring that the user's circulatory system is sufficiently at rest when taking the measurement. In this case, the measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure values do not represent the blood pressure at rest. However, it is this blood pressure at rest that should be used to assess the measured values. This blood pressure monitor uses integrated haemodynamic stability diagnostics (HSD) to measure the user's haemodynamic stability when taking the blood pressure measurement. This enables it to indicate whether the blood pressure was taken when the user's circulatory system was sufficiently at rest. The user's circulatory system not being sufficiently at rest can be the result of various factors, such as physical stress, mental strain\u002Fdistraction, speaking, or experiencing cardiac arrhythmia during the measurement. In an overwhelming number of cases, HSD will give a very good guide as to whether the user's circulatory system is rested when a blood pressure measurement is taken. However, certain patients suffering from cardiac arrhythmia or chronic mental conditions may remain haemodynamically unstable even in the long term, something which persists even after repeated periods of rest. The accuracy of the results for the blood pressure at rest is reduced in these users. Like any medical measurement method, the precision of HSD is limited, and it can lead to incorrect results in some cases. Nevertheless, the blood pressure measurements taken when the user's circulatory system is sufficiently at rest represent particularly reliable results.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2>CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cul>\u003Cli>Clean the device and cuff carefully using only a slightly damp cloth.\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>Do not use any cleaning solutions or solvents.\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>Under no circumstances hold the device or cuff under water, as this can cause liquid to enter and damage the device and cuff.\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>If you store the device and cuff, do not place heavy objects on the device and cuff.
