Indications for Use

This device is a digital blood pressure monitor intended for measuring
the blood pressure and pulse rate of adults. The device detects the
appearance of irregular heartbeats during measurement and gives a
warning signal with the measurement result, if detected.
The Braun ExactFit 1 Upper arm blood pressure monitor has been
developed for accurate and comfortable blood pressure measurements.
The measuring accuracy was tested at the time of manufacture and was
proven by clinical research in accordance with the ESH IP-2002 and ANSI /
AAMI SP-10-2002.

What you should know about blood pressure

Blood pressure constantly changes throughout the day. It rises sharply in
the early morning and declines during the late morning. Blood pressure
rises again in the afternoon and finally drops to a low level at night. Also,
it may vary in a short period of time. Therefore, readings from successive
measurements can fluctuate.
This device will display your blood pressure reading referring to two
values: systolic and diastolic. The systolic blood pressure (the upper
number) indicates how much pressure your blood is exerting against
your artery walls when the heart beats. The diastolic blood pressure (the
lower number) indicates how much pressure your blood is exerting
against your artery walls while the heart is resting between beats. The
pulse value is also displayed after each measurement.
Blood pressure measured in a doctor's office only provides a momentary
value. Repeated measurements at home better reflect one's actual blood
pressure values under everyday conditions.
Moreover, many people have a different blood pressure when they
measure at home, because they tend to be more relaxed than when in
the doctor's office. Regular blood pressure measurements taken at home
can provide your doctor with valuable information on your normal blood
pressure values under actual «everyday» conditions.
The AHA (American Heart Association) have set up the following
standard blood pressure values when measured with a resting pulse at
home:
Blood pressure

SYS = systole
