ACCUNIQ BP How to use
| When you measure different arm. |  |
|
|
Blood pressure is different from right arm and left arm. The difference is various and it is about 5~15mmHg.
When you measure blood pressure for the first time, measure both arms and recognize higher blood pressure as your blood pressure. From now on, measure the arm which you had higher blood pressure.
If difference between right arm and left arm is over 20~30mmHg, inform it to doctor.
|
||
| Posture | |
|
|
Normally, measured blood pressure is higher when lying down than when seated, and higher when standing than when seated.
When you measure blood pressure with supine position, you will obtain lower blood pressure of 10~15Hg in systolic, 10mmHg in diastolic, comparing to when seated or standing. Also, when you lie down in side ways, blood pressure of upper arm is lower than bottom arm
|
||
| White Coat Hypertension | |
|
|
White coat hypertension is the case if you measure blood pressure at home by yourself, you can get normal blood pressure but, when you measure at hospital or with a doctor, blood pressure goes higher (In most cases, 20~30mmHg higher than normal).
|
||
| Variation throughout the day and year. | |
|
|
A. Blood pressure changes variously throughout the day and it changes daily as well.
The lowest blood pressure can be checked when person is asleep and highest blood pressure can be checked at 2~3 PM. Blood pressure falls down again and then rises slightly in the evening.
Blood pressure is low in summer and high in winter. Moreover, diastolic rises about 15mmHg when measure in cool temperature room (15℃) comparing to warm temperature room (24℃).
|
||
| If the user has arterial fibrillation | |
|
|
Arterial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia for the aged and it is related to hypertension.
Measurement of blood pressure becomes difficult due to the irregular pulse, especially to analyze with korotkoff sound. |
||
| Result can be differed by catching diastolic on 4 or 5 point. | |
|
|
Each person has different swan 4 and 5 point. Sometimes 5 point is nearly 0 for some people.
In this case, difference occurs between catching 4 point to diastolic or 5 point to diastolic. |
||
| Auscultatory gap | |
|
|
Auscultatory gap is the period of irregular silent state and it occurs usually in the 2 phase.
If device misses the sound and catches the next sound as systolic, systolic will be measured extremely low. |
||
| If using inaccurate blood pressure monitor. | |
|
|
A. When you measure blood pressure, you should use accurate blood pressure monitor.
For aneroid sphygmomanometer, consistently check the zero point. Accurate blood pressure can be derived with adjusting the zero point by regulation for other sphygmomanometer. |
||
| Others | |
|
|
A. Thickness of upper arm: Thicker arm gets higher measurement value.
Position of arm: When the arm is placed at a higher position than the heart, blood pressure will become lower than actual value, and if the arm is placed at a lower position than the heart, blood pressure will become higher. During the fluid injection, measure the blood pressure with another arm. |
