3. Intended use

Intended use
The blood pressure monitor is intended for the fully automatic,
non-invasive measurement of arterial blood pressure and pulse
values on the upper arm.
Target group
It is designed for self-measurement by adults in the home envi-
ronment and is suitable for users whose upper arm circumfer-
ence is within the range printed on the cuff.
Indication/clinical benefits
The user can record their blood pressure and pulse values
quickly and easily using the device. The recorded values are
classified according to internationally applicable guidelines and
evaluated graphically. Furthermore, the device can detect any
irregular heart beats that occur during measurement and in-
form the user via a symbol in the display. The device saves the
recorded measurements and can also output average values of
previous measurements.
The recorded data can provide healthcare service providers
with support during the diagnosis and treatment of blood
pressure problems, and therefore plays a part in the long-term
monitoring of the user's health.
