Chapter 1 Preface Brief Introduction to Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is an instrument for monitoring human’s blood pressure continuously during certain period (normally 1-2 days) with certain interval that is based on actual situation. Blood pressure readings in different periods and under different life conditions can be judged according to the measuring results, thus blood pressure diagnosis would be given.

For the following hypertension types, it is only ambulatory blood pressure monitoring that could diagnose easily. 1. White-coat hypertension White-coat hypertension is the blood pressure that is high when measured at health care site but normal in daily activity. The high pressue at health care site is repeatable in different days.
Chapter 2 Safety Requirements 2.1 Intended use Blood pressure monitor of ABP-03 is mainly used to measure blood pressures, which include systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse rate, of patients in different setting intervals within 24 hours (not applicable to children under 3 years), and the measurement data can be transmitted by USB data wire for medical personnel’s reference and analysis...
Product composition: Main unit, Noninvasive blood pressure cuff, USB data wire and Hingmed PC software. The device is inner power source with 2 AA alkaline batteries; Electric shock protection degree: CF type applied part; Operation mode: continuous mode. The service life of this product is five years.
● Be careful to regarding the effect of blood flow interference and resulting harmful injury to the patient caused by continuous cuff pressure due to connection tubing kinking ● When using this device, please pay attention to the following situation which may interrupt blood flow and influence blood circulation of the patient, thus cause harmful injury to the patient: connection tubing kinking too frequent and consecutive multiple measurements.
