• Like any oscillometric blood pressure measurement de-
vices, certain medical conditions can affect the mea-
surement accuracy, among others:
– disorder of the cardiac rhythm
– very low blood pressure
– patients in shock
– patients with very low blood perfusion
– diabetes
– vessel anomalities
– people with electrical implants, such as a cardiac
pacemaker
– women who are pregnant.
Due to their condition the oscillometric measurement
method can produce incorrect readings. This repre-
sents a risk for your health, since values may be inter-
preted incorrectly. Always consult your physician to
determine what will be suitable for you.

repetition rates, can lead to severe measurement side
effects, e.g.

ralysis
– the release of an arterial or venous thrombus, which
can cause a life threatening situation.
Please contact your physician about the specific risks
of cuff pressure in your specific case.
