HOW 702 WORKS ? LifeSource Blood Pressure Monitors are easy to use, accurate and digitally display full measurement readouts. Our technology is based on the “oscillometric method” — a noninvasive blood pressure determination. The term “oscillation” refers to any measure of vibrations caused by the arterial pulse. The cuff is first inflated until the artery is fully occluded. Then, the monitor takes measurements while the cuff deflates. Our monitors exam- ine the pulsatile pressure generated

SELECTING THE CORRECT CUFF Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. A cuff that is too large will produce a reading that is lower than the correct blood pressure; a cuff that is too small yields a measurement that is higher. With your arm hanging at the side of your body, measure the circumference of your upper arm at the midpoint between shoulder and elbow. RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT ARM SIZE CUFF SIZE CUFF MODEL# 5.1” - 7.9” (13-20cm) Small UA-279 7.5” - 12.2” (19-31c

Watch for all display symbols to appear briefly, followed by a zero, indicating that monitor is ready for measurement. 6. Watch the display and squeeze the bulb quickly until cuff pressure reaches about 30 mmHg to 40 mmHg above expected systolic pressure. To help you determine the correct inflation level, the monitor is programmed to beep quickly three times at each of the four

NOTE: If you wish to stop inflation at any time, press the exhaust valve to release air. 8. Wait for the long beep, indicating that the measurement is complete. Your systolic pressure will appear on the left and your diastolic pressure on the right of the display screen, alternating with pulse reading. 9. Press the exhaust val

TAKING YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE 10.Remove cuff and make a note of your blood pressure and pulse rate on the chart (see page 16), indicating date and time of measurement. We advise that you record the date and time after each measure- ment because an accurate blood pressure history relies not on single or sporadic readings but on a pattern over time. NOTE: If you wish to take your blood pressure again, relax and wait 5–10 minutes to enable the flow of blood in the arm to return to normal. There

CHECK/ADJUST EXHAUST VELOCITY Exhaust velocity is the rate at which the air pressure in the cuff deflates during the course of measurement. It is preset at the factory and generally does not need any further adjustment. NOTE: The exhaust rate of your monitor was preset and tested at the factory to ensure proper measurement. The rate set is dependent on cuff size, not arm size. If using a cuff other than the one shipped with the unit, you may need to adjust the exhaust velocity rate. To check t

CHECK/ADJUST EXHAUST VELOCITY 4. Watch the display screen. As pressure automatically decreases, diastolic numbers should decline in increments of 2 to 5 mmHg. If the exhaust velocity range is not within 2 to 5 mmHg, make the following adjustment with the unit turned off: 1. The adjustment screw is located on the exhaust valve attached to the inflator bulb. It is covered by a thin grey protection cap with a hole in the center. To remove and discard the cap (you do not need to replace it), inse
