Watching Your Health

Purchasing this blood pressure monitor is your first step in living

a healthier life, but it is only the beginning. It is also important

to:

STAY ACTIVE - Start out by taking just a short walk each

day. Over time you'll begin to feel more energetic. Walking is a

fun, easy way to help lose weight and also aids in building

stronger bones and a healthier heart!

EAT HEALTHY - Adding more fruits and vegetables to your

diet is a great way to start. Also, look at incorporating more

whole grains, fish and low fat dairy products and keep a check

on your sodium intake. If you're using a blood pressure monitor,

you should already be aware of how sodium can affect your

blood pressure. As always, consult your physician before begin-

ning any dietary changes.

Watching Your Health

STAY POSITIVE - A healthy mind goes hand in hand with a

healthy body. Daily relaxation techniques such as meditation and

yoga may be just what you need to alleviate stress. Keep your

mind focused on the positive things in life. Start out by giving

yourself a pat on the back for those walks you are now taking or

that apple you just ate!

WATCH YOUR WEIGHT - Sometimes just a small amount

of weight loss may have a positive effect on your blood pressure.

If you have already started exercising and eating healthier, the

weight loss may just happen on its own!

REMEMBER: Consult your physician before you start or

change your exercise routine, diet, vitamin/supplement intake

and/or blood pressure monitoring.

Why Should I Monitor My Blood Pressure At Home?

By monitoring at home you can manage your health care between

visits to the doctor. Also, you now have the means to keep a record

of your blood pressure measurements, a valuable tool for both you

and your healthcare provider.

Home monitoring may help alleviate White Coat Hypertension.

This term refers to what may cause a person's blood pressure to

be higher when taken in a medical setting. At times the stress of

just being in a doctor's office may cause blood pressure to rise.

When monitoring at home you may get a truer indication of your

blood pressure because you are in a relaxed, comfortable space.

What is Blood Pressure?

The term "blood pressure" refers to the force or pressure that is

exerted on the body's arteries as blood flows through them. Each

time the heart beats or contracts, it produces pressure in the arter-

ies. This blood pressure is what moves blood through the body,

supplying oxygen and nutrients to every organ.

Commonly Asked Questions About Blood Pressure

Commonly Asked Questions

About Blood Pressure

When the heart contracts it sends blood out into

the body. This pressure is referred to as systolic.

The pressure that is created as

the heart pulls blood back thor-

ough is called diastolic.

Blood Pressure is recorded as

systolic over diastolic.

What is considered Normal Blood Pressure?

The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on

Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood

Pressure from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute has

set forth the following guidelines regarding high blood pressure.

Guidelines provided are for information purposes only. Please

consult with your physician for proper diagnosis.

Why Does My Blood Pressure Fluctuate?

Blood pressure changes with every beat of the heart and is in

constant fluctuation throughout the day. In addition to natural

changes, other factors that may affect blood pressure are:

How Do I Know If I Have High Blood Pressure?

People have the misconception that they can "feel" their blood

pressure rise. In reality it is nearly impossible to tell if your pres-

sure is elevated without having it checked. This is why hyperten-

sion has been named "the silent killer". Start monitoring your

blood pressure today and discuss the results with your healthcare

professional.

Why Is It Important To Control My Blood Pressure?

Left uncontrolled hypertension can place an incredible amount of

stress on your heart and arteries. They are both forced to work

harder to keep blood flowing through your body. Over time this

stress may result in health related problems including enlargement

of the heart, loss of artery elasticity, heart disease, stroke or death.

Making simple lifestyle changes now may help you stay healthy in

the future.

Commonly Asked Questions

About Blood Pressure

Commonly Asked Questions About Blood Pressure/Intended Use

Intended Use

Invacare blood pressure monitors are designed for home use. They

are noninvasive; no part enters your body, and provide systolic,

diastolic and pulse rate measurements. These monitors are not

recommended for use by people under 18 years of age and are not

suitable for clinical use.

Invacare monitors measure blood pressure and pulse rate by

using an oscillometric method, meaning the fluctuations in pres-

sure are measured. Once the cuff is wrapped around the upper

arm, turn the monitor on and the cuff is automatically inflated.

The inflation of the cuff creates pressure around the arteries

inside the arm. Within the cuff is a gauge which senses the

fluctuations (oscillations) in pressure. The fluctuations mea-

sured are the arteries contracting with each heart beat as a

result of the pressure the cuff has placed on the arm. The mon-

itor measures these contractions and converts the information

to a digital value. That is the result displayed on the monitor

screen. Once the measurement is complete the cuff will auto-

matically deflate.

Important information before using the unit

Blood pressure measurements should be interpreted by a physician

or trained health professional who is familiar with one's medical

history. By using the unit regularly and recording the results for the

physician to interpret, one can keep the physician informed of the

continuing trends in one's blood pressure.

Sit quietly for about 10 minutes. This will allow your body to return

to its normal resting state.

Wrap the cuff snug around your upper arm and lay your arm on a

flat surface at the same level as your heart. Your feet should be flat

on the floor.

Do not move the device during the taking of a measurement; this

may cause an inaccurate measurement.

Perform the measurement in a quiet environment, in a relaxed posi-

tion at room temperature. For consistency, we recommend using

the same arm (left arm if possible) and testing around the same

time each day.

Important information before

using the unit

•

If taking multiple measurements, please allow 10 min-

utes between measurements. This will allow your blood

vessels to return to their normal state.

If you have consumed beverages containing caffeine or

have smoked, please allow 30 - 45 minutes before tak-

ing your measurement.

Do not place the cuff over a

jacket or sweater sleeve; it

must be wrapped around your

exposed upper arm.

Keep in mind that blood pres-

sure naturally varies from time

to time throughout the day and is affected by many dif-

ferent factors, such as smoking, alcohol consumption,

medication, and physical activity.

Make sure the cuff plug is attached to the monitor as

shown above.

Accuracy/Special Conditions/Battery Installation

Invacare monitors have been clinically tested against a scientific

device called a sphygmomanometer, considered the gold standard in

blood pressure measurement. All Invacare monitors have performed

equivalent to measurements taken with this scientific device and are

within the accuracy limits prescribed by the American National

Standard for Electronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers. Invacare

monitors have been clinically tested and have met all the require-

ments to achieve AAMI (Association for the Advancement of Medical

Instrumentation) certification.

Accuracy

All Invacare BPMs are safe and accurate to use with arrhythmias such

as atrial or ventricular premature beats and atrial fibrillation. We rec-

ommend, however, that if you have these conditions or any other spe-

cial conditions you should check with your physician before using your

Invacare BPM.

Battery Installation

When the display shows , it’s time to replace the

batteries. This monitor uses 4 "AA" alkaline batteries.

Insert the batteries into the monitor making

certain to align the polarities correctly.
