Irregular Heartbeat Detector - Duronic BPM120 Manual De Instrucciones

An irregular heartbeat is detected when a heartbeat rhythm varies while the
monitor is measuring the systolic pressure and diastolic pressure. During each
measurement, the monitor will keep a record of all the pulse intervals and calculate
the average value of them.
If there are two or more pulse intervals, the difference between each interval and
the average is more than the average value of +25% then the irregular heartbeat
symbol will appear on the display with the measurement result.
If there are four or more pulse intervals with the difference between each interval
and the average is more than the average value of +15%, then the irregular
heartbeat symbol will appear on the display with the measurement result.
Caution: The appearance of the IHB 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.
Why does my blood pressure vary throughout the day?
Individual blood pressure varies naturally multiple
times during the day. It is also affected by the way
you tie your cuff around your arm and the position
of your arm during measurement. For this reason,
we advise you take measurement at the same time
of day and in the same position.
Please note: If the user takes medication the
pressure will vary more.
If you wish to measure a second time, wait at least
3 minutes before taking another measurement.
