Irregular Heartbeat Detector - GERATHERM active control+ GT-1115 Manual De Uso

Irregular heartbeat detector

An irregular heartbeat is detected when a heartbeat
rhythm varies while the unit is measuring the systolic and
diastolic blood pressure. During each measurement, this
equipment records the heartbeat intervals and works out
the standard deviation. If major pulse irregularities occur,
the arrhythmia icon appears on the display along with the
blood pressure readings.
CAUTION
The appearance of the arrhythmia icon indicates that a
pulse irregularity consistent with an irregular heart-beat
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.
