4. PAD - Pulse Arrhythmia Detector
This symbol
indicates that certain pulse irregularities were detected during the
measurement. In this case, the result may deviate from your normal basal blood pressure – repeat
the measurement. In most cases, this is no cause for concern. However, if the PAD symbol appears
on a regular basis (e.g. several times a week with measurement taken daily), we advise you to
consult your doctor.
Please show your doctor the following explanation:
Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the Pulse Arrhythmia Heartbeat
Symbol.
This instrument is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor device that also analyzes pulse
frequency during measurement. The instrument is clinically tested.
If pulse irregularities occur during measurement, the irregular heartbeat symbol is displayed
after the measurement. If the symbol appears more frequently (e.g. several times per week on
measurements performed daily) or if it suddenly appears more often than usual, we recommend the
patient seek medical advice. The instrument does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves to
detect pulse irregularities at an early stage.
