Veridian Self-Taking Blood Pressure Home Kit – Manual Inflation and Deflation

Q: How can home monitoring help?

Physician office visits can be stressful for a patient. A temporary occurrence of elevated blood pressure at the physician’s office is commonly referred to as “White Coat Syndrome”. Home blood pressure monitoring provides an avenue to supplement physicians’ office measurements. Home readings can show an accurate indication of blood pressure when taken over a period of time. These records can assist in evaluating your health and in making important decisions in the diagnosis and treatment of a condition when used in conjunction with physician care and evaluation.

Q: Is a blood pressure monitor waterproof?

Gauges are not waterproof. Please refer to the detailed instructions manual for care and maintenance instructions. It is strongly recommended that the unit be stored and operated within the conditions expressed in the product user manual.

Q: Can I use a blood pressure monitor in moving vehicles?

No, it is not recommended to use a blood pressure monitor in moving vehicles because movement, vibrations, or other activity will interfere with the reading and likely cause an error or inaccurate reading.

Q: Can I use a blood pressure monitor while exercising?

No, movement, vibrations, or other activity will interfere with the reading and likely cause an error or inaccurate reading. You should always rest a minimum of 15 minutes prior to taking a reading.

Q: What should I do if my arm circumference is outside of the stated cuff size range?

The prescribed range for your blood pressure monitor is included on the specifications page of your instruction guidebook. Reading accuracy can be affected if an improperly sized cuff is used. Most models offer additional cuff sizes available for purchase. Please check the instruction manual with your blood pressure monitor for further details.

Q: Which arm should I use to take my blood pressure?

Your blood pressure unit and accompanying detailed instruction guidebook are designed for left-arm use. If you are unable to or do not want to use your left arm, modify the instructions for right arm/wrist use. The same arm should be used for all readings to ensure reliable comparisons.

Q: Does age affect blood pressure?

Many factors such as age, genetics, sex, altitude, physical activity, muscular development, certain medications, or even the time of day can influence blood pressure.

Q: What happens if I do not place the cuff at heart level?

If the cuff is not at heart level, readings will be affected producing inaccurate measurements.

Q: How long should I wait between measurements?

It is important to wait for a minimum of 15 minutes between readings. The wait time may vary depending on individual physiological characteristics.

How to Assemble the Veridian Self-Taking Blood Pressure Home Kit

Insert the single end of the tube into the stem of the chestpiece. Insert the metal ends of the binaural into the “Y” end of the tube.
Attach the gauge to the tube located on the left part of the chestpiece then the inflation bulb to the tube on the right part.
After assembling, make sure that the white artery patch is located outside and the chestpiece n the inside of the arm cuff. If properly folded, the hook and loop will be on the outside of the cuff.

Directions on how to use the Self-Taking Blood Pressure Home Kit

Sit on a chair with a table/desk to lay your arm and with your feet flat on the floor.
Extend your left arm and find your brachial artery.
Open the cuff and create a circle where you can slide your arm without extending the cuff beyond the metal ring.
Insert your left arm into the cuff and position the cuff properly with the bottom edge a half-inch above your elbow. Make sure that the chestpiece is directly touching your brachial artery.
While your arm is extended, your palm facing upward, and the tubes positioned down the center of your arm, secure the cuff through its hook and loop closure.
Make sure the cuff fitted snugly into your arm. For the best fit, you should be able to insert a finger between the cuff and your arm.
Fit the earpieces securely in your ears. If necessary, adjust the binaural to find the most comfortable fit.
Position the gauge in an area where it can’t be moved. With your free hand, hold the inflation bulb and close the air release valve.
Pump the inflation bulb slowly and steadily to inflate the cuff until the gauge reads 30 mmHG ABOVE your last known SYSTOLIC measurement. If you do not know your last known SYSTOLIC measurement, inflate to approximately 180-200 mmHg. NEVER INFLATE THE CUFF ABOVE 280 mmHg
As you reach the proper inflation level, slowly and steadily turn the air valve counter-clockwise at a rate of 2-3 mmHg per second.
As pressure drops, listen to your pulse beat while watching the gauge. The first thumping sound is your SYSTOLIC pressure.
Let the cuff deflate until there is no sound at all. As soon as you hear the last sound, the reading measurement reflected on the gauge is your DIASTOLIC pressure.
Turn the valve counter-clockwise to deflate the remaining air. Remove the cuff and record the measurement on the chart included in the package.

Care Instructions

Do not use any liquid on the kit. Do not store in direct sunlight, dust or humidity. Do not disassemble the gauge or cuff. Avoid dropping or hitting the gauge and chestpiece.

FAQs

What is Blood Pressure?

Blood pressure is the force that is exerted by blood pushing against the walls of the blood vessels throughout the body. The heart is the center of the circulatory system.

The heart provides the force that allows the blood to circulate. Blood is forced

through blood vessels increasing the pressure during every heartbeat, marking the highest point of pressure in the cycle known as the systolic pressure. The lowest point occurs between beats while the heart rests, this point during the decrease in pressure is referred to as diastolic pressure.

This complete series of events, which occurs in a single heartbeat, is known as the cardiac cycle. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters (mm) of Mercury (Hg). These two measurements are commonly noted with the systolic pressure first, followed by a slash and the diastolic pressure – i.e.120/80, or‘120 over 80’.

What is high blood pressure?

Many factors can influence blood pressure measurements – genetics, age, sex, physical activity, anxiety, muscular development, certain medications, altitude, or even the time of day. Generally, high blood pressure is blood pressure that is consistently elevated above 140/90 mmHg.

Standards for the assessment of high or low blood pressure have been established by the World Health Organization (WHO) as shown in the following chart. Veridian Healthcare blood pressure monitors include comparison charts to the WHO standards for your reference.

This chart is only a general guideline. Your physician or trained healthcare professional will help determine your individual normal blood pressure range.

Category	SYSTOLIC (mmHg)	DIASTOLIC(mmHg)
Optimal	<120	<80
Normal	120-129	80-84
High Normal	130-139	85-89
Stage 1 – Mild Borderline Hypertension	140-159	90-99
Stage 2 – Moderate Hypertension	160-179	100-109
Stage 3 – Severe Hypertension	≥180	≥110
Isolated Systolic Hypertension	≥140 140-159 160-179 ≥180	<90 <90 <90 <90

Why are my home blood pressure readings different from my doctor’s readings?

Many factors affect blood pressure. The anxiousness about a doctor’s visit may cause the common condition referred to as“White Coat Syndrome”, which typically produces a higher than “normal” blood pressure reading. Other factors, including the time of day, can influence blood pressure reading results.

How often and when should I measure my blood pressure?

It is recommended that you consult with your healthcare professional for the time and frequency that is best suited for you. It is important to take your readings at similar times and conditions when monitoring on a daily basis. This will allow for a reliable comparison of your readings.

Are manual inflate digital blood pressure monitors as accurate as automatic inflate monitors?

Yes, both styles comply with the same stringent accuracy standards. The only
the difference is the way the unit is inflated.

How accurate is a manual home blood pressure monitor?

Veridian Healthcare Blood Pressure Monitors are designed to meet the exacting standards set by the various regulatory bodies that govern all blood pressure monitors including those found in your physician’s office.

In order to ensure the accuracy of your measurements, it is strongly suggested to read the complete guidebook and other support materials and follow the recommended operating conditions for the unit including the suitable arm/wrist circumference range for the cuff.
