Caution: Your digital aneroid is not field serviceable.
Caution: You should not use any tool to open the device nor should you attempt to
adjust anything inside the device.
Caution: To stop the operation of your digital aneroid at any time, open the air release valve
as you would on any mechanical blood pressure instrument, and the air in the cuff will be rapidly
exhausted.
Caution: Your digital aneroid is designed for normal blood pressure measurement at the
upper arm or thigh on healthy skin. Proper use of this device is essential for accurate measure-
ment.
Caution: Do not inflate your digital aneroid unit to more than 300 mmHg.
Warning: When using with an infant or child cuff, extra care must be taken to prevent over-
inflation. With smaller cuffs (infant or child) the cuff can inflate to over 300mmHg with just two
full compressions of the bulb. To prevent discomfort or injury to the patient and damage to the
instrument, bulb should only be partially squeezed, so that each “stroke” inflates the cuff in
40mmHg to 60mmHg increments until inflated to the desired level.
Warning: If luer lock connectors are used in the construction of tubing, there is a possibility
that they might be inadvertently connected to intravascular fluid systems, allowing air to be
pumped into a blood vessel. Immediately consult a physician if this occurs.
Warning: Do not allow a blood pressure cuff to remain on patient for more than 10 minutes
when inflated above 10 mmHg. This may cause patient distress, disturb blood circulation, and
contribute to the injury of peripheral nerves.
Warning: Safety and effectiveness with neonate cuff sizes 1 through 5 is not established.
