Introduction Thank you for purchasing a state-of-the-art Sendo blood pressure monitor. Sendo will give you years of accurate measurements, if it is used properly. We are always ready to provide help on our telephone lines for your country. 5 years guarante.
Installing / Changing The Batteries 1 Remove the battery cover. 2 Remove the used batteries and insert new batteries into the battery compartment as shown, taking care that the polarities (+) and (-) are correct. 3 Replace the battery cover. 1 2 3 Use only R6P, LR6 or AA batteries. Connecting the Air Hose Insert the air connector plug into the air socket firmly. Air Socket Air Connector Plug Air Hose Connecting the AC Adapter Insert the AC adapter plug into the DC jack.
Measurements SENDO Advance is designed to detect the pulse and to inflate the cuff to a systolic pressure level automatically. If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed 230 mmHg, read "Measurement with the Desired Systolic Pressure" on the next page. 1 Sit comfortably in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Place your left arm on a table at a slight angle. 2 Arm Cuff Air Hose 2-3 cm Wrap the cuff around the upper arm, about 2 - 3 cm above the elbow, as shown.
3 Place the cuff on the arm (preferably the left arm). The cuff must be at the level with the heart. 4 START button Press the START button. Averaged data The average blood pressures and last data number are displayed briefly. Then the measurement begins. Note: If you wish to stop inflation at any time, press the START button again.
Measurement with The Desired Systolic Pressure If your systolic pressure is expected to exceed 230 mmHg, use this procedure. 1 Sit comfortably in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Place your left arm on a table at a slight angle. 2 Arm Cuff Air Hose 2-3 cm Wrap the cuff around the upper arm, about 2 - 3 cm above the elbow, as shown. Place the cuff directly against the skin, as clothing may cause a faint pulse and result in a measurement error.
4 START button (press and hold) Press and hold the START button to display the last data number. Last data number 5 START button (press and hold) Release the button when stopping inflation and starting measurement Press and hold the START button again until a number about 30 to 40 mmHg higher than your expected systolic pressure appears. Release the START button to start measurement, when the desired number is reached. Then continue to measure your blood pressure as described on the previous page.
How to Take Proper Measurements Sit down in a comfortable position. Place the arm to be used for the measurement on a table or other support so that the center of the cuff will be at the same height as your heart. Relax before taking a measurement. If you are excited or depressed by emotional stress, the measurement will reflect this stress as a higher (or lower) than normal blood pressure reading and the pulse reading will usually be faster than normal.
About Memory The device automatically stores up to thirty blood pressure and pulse measurements in memory. Data stored in memory are assigned a data number in the order of the newest to the oldest. The oldest data displays as "n01". The M symbol in the upper left corner of the display indicates that you are viewing previous data stored in memory. Recalling Data 1 When nothing is displayed, press and hold the START button to display the data number.
Selecting The Correct Cuff Using the correct cuff size is important for an accurate reading. If the cuff is not the proper size, the reading may yield an incorrect blood pressure value. The arm size is printed on each cuff. The index and proper fit range, on the cuff, tell you if you are attaching the correct cuff. (Refer to "Attaching The Arm Cuff" below.
Symbols Function / Meaning Recommended Action Standby and Turn the device on. Battery installation guide Serial number Type BF: Device, cuff and tubing are designed to provide special protection against electrical shocks. The indicator that appears while measurement is in progress. It blinks when the pulse is detected. Measurement is in progress. Remain as still as possible. Irregular Heartbeat indicator. (I.H.B.
WHO Classification Indicator Each six segments of the bar indicator correspond to the WHO blood pressure classification described on the next page. WHO Classification Indicator Severe hypertension Moderate hypertension Mild hypertnsion High normal Normal Optimal Example: Moderate hypertension Mild hypertension The indicator displays a segment, based on the current data, corresponding to the WHO classification. 12 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.
What Is Blood Pressure? Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against the walls of the arteries. Systolic pressure occurs when the heart contracts. Diastolic pressure occurs when the heart expands. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One's natural blood pressure is represented by the fundamental pressure, which is measured first thing in the morning while one is still at rest and before eating.
Troubleshooting Problem Possible Reason Recommended Action Nothing appears on the display, even when the power is turned on. Batteries are drained. Replace all batteries with new ones. Battery terminals are not in the correct position. Reinstall the batteries with negative and positive terminals matching those indicated on the battery compartment. The cuff does not inflate. Battery voltage is too low. (LOW BATTERY mark) blinks. If the batteries are drained completely, the mark does not appear.
Technical Data Measurement method Oscillometric measurement Measurement range Pressure: 20 - 280 mmHg Pulse: 40 - 180 beats/minute Measurement accuracy Pressure: ±3 mmHg or 2%, whichever is greater Pulse: ±5% Power supply 4 x 1.
