Systolic pressure is the top number that the blood pressure monitor will indicate. Systolic pressure refers to the amount of pressure in your arteries during the contraction of your heart muscle.
Diastolic pressure is the lowest number that the blood pressure monitor will indicate. The bottom number refers to your blood pressure when your heart muscle is between beats.
A normal blood pressure is about 120/80.
To interpret the traffic light indicator on the display of the Microlife BP A3 PC sphygmomanometer, follow these steps: 1. Look at the bars on the left-hand edge of the display. These bars represent the range within which the measured blood pressure value falls. 2. The height of the bar corresponds to the classification of the blood pressure value. 3. If the bar is in the green range, it indicates an optimal blood pressure reading. 4. If the bar is in the yellow range, it indicates an elevated blood pressure reading. 5. If the bar is in the orange range, it indicates a blood pressure reading that is too high. 6. If the bar is in the red range, it indicates a dangerously high blood pressure reading. 7. The classification of the ranges is based on international guidelines (ESH, AHA, JSH) mentioned in the manual. By interpreting the traffic light indicator, you can quickly assess your blood pressure reading and determine if it falls within the optimal range or if further attention is needed.
There could be several reasons why the cuff is not inflating properly when using the Microlife BP A3 PC sphygmomanometer. Here are some possible causes and troubleshooting steps: 1. Check the cuff placement: Ensure that the cuff is positioned correctly on your upper arm, approximately 2 cm above the elbow. The artery mark on the cuff should align with the artery on the inner side of your arm. 2. Verify cuff tightness: Make sure that the cuff is fitted snugly but not too tight. It should be comfortably wrapped around your arm. 3. Check for cuff damage: Inspect the cuff for any signs of damage, such as tears or leaks. If the cuff is damaged, it may not inflate properly. In such cases, you may need to replace the cuff. 4. Check battery level: Low battery power can affect the inflation of the cuff. Ensure that the batteries are properly inserted and have sufficient charge. 5. Avoid interference: Strong electromagnetic fields, such as those generated by mobile phones or radio installations, can interfere with the device's operation. Keep a distance of at least 1 meter from such sources. If the issue persists after following these troubleshooting steps, it is recommended to contact Microlife customer service for further assistance.
