10.2 Pregnancy
Blood pressure may change during
pregnancy. Regular blood pressure
monitoring is particularly important
if you have high blood pressure
because the elevated blood pres-
sure may affect the development of
the foetus. Check with your doctor
whether and, if so, when you
should carry out self-measurement
of blood pressure.
10.3 Diabetes, history of other
medical conditions
If you have diabetes or narrowed
blood vessels (arteriosclerosis) you
should consult your doctor before
carrying out self-measurement
because greatly deviating individual
measured values may occur in such
cases.
10.4. Arrhythmias, heart rhythm
disorders (cardiac arrhythmias),
cardiac pacemakers
Heart rhythm disorders (arrhyth-
mias) are disturbances of the nor-
mal rate or rhythm of the heart-
beat. A distinction should be made
between mild and severe heart
rhythm disorders. This can only be
determined by a special investiga-

tion carried out by a doctor. If you
have a heart rhythm disorder, you
are specifically recommended to
use our innovative upper arm blood
pressure monitor Tensoval duo con-
trol. Using Duo Sensor Technology
– a technology based on Korotkoff's
principle – this device can sense
various types of cardiac arrhythmias
and give accurate readings. Please
bear in mind: Severe heart rhythm
disorders may produce false measu-
rements or impair the measuring
precision. Please discuss with your
doctor whether self-measurement
of blood pressure – and if yes –
which type is suitable for you.
Self-measurement of blood pressure
may fail in cardiac pacemaker wear-
ers, but the blood pressure device
itself has no impact on the cardiac
pacemaker. Please note that the
displayed pulse rate is not suitable
for checking the rate of cardiac
pacemakers. Please check with your
doctor whether self-measurement
of blood pressure is advisable if you
are wearing a cardiac pacemaker.
