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.
To determine the presence of an irregular heartbeat, the average
of the heartbeat intervals is calculated with the first 3 normal
effective heartbeat values. It is important to note that the average
is not a strict mathematical averaging of all recorded intervals.
At least 3 beats with 25% or greater difference from the average
heartbeat interval will generate the
Important Information:
This blood pressure monitor is not designed for use by people with arrhythmias
nor for diagnosing or treating an arrhythmia problem. As a safeguard, we
recommend that if you have arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature
beats and atrial fibrillation or any other special conditions you should check with
your physician before using your blood pressure monitor.
