Blood pressure that is too low represents just as great a
health risk as blood pressure that is too high! Fits of dizziness
may lead to dangerous situations arising (e.g. on stairs or in
trac)!
Inuencing and evaluating readings
• Measure your blood pressure several times, then record and compare the
results. Do not draw any conclusions from a single reading.
• Y
also familiar with your personal medical history
and recording the values for your doctor
to time to keep him updated.
• When taking readings, remember that the daily values are inuenced by
several factors. Smoking, consumption of alcohol, drugs and physical exertion
inuence the measured values in various ways.
• Measure your blood pressure before meals.
• Before taking readings, allow yourself at least ve minutes rest.
• If the systolic and diastolic readings seem unusual (too high or too low) on
several occasions, despite correct use of the unit, please inform your doctor
This also applies to the rare occasions when an irregular or very weak pulse
prevents you from taking readings.

How is blood pressure measured?
The MTP Pro is a blood pressure unit which is used to measure blood pressure at
the upper arm. The measurement is carried out by a microprocessor
pressure sensor
of the cu over the artery
Why should you take your blood pressure at home?
One strong argument in favour of taking blood pressure at home is the fact that
the readings are taken in familiar surroundings under relaxed conditions. The most
important reading is the socalled „baseline value“, the one taken before breakfast,
directly after getting up in the morning.

risk of further cardiovascular diseases.
Blood pressure classication
Initially, deation occurs at a constant speed. As soon as the pulse can be
determined, deation is synchronised with the beating of the heart until the
measurement ends. This procedure is accompanied by a beep and the heart

Taking blood pressure readings - 3MAM measuring method
(3 consecutive measurements to calculate an average value)
Selecting the 3MAM measuring method:
With the MTP Pro , you can choose between two measuring modes.
• Single reading
• 3 consecutive readings (Measurement Average Mode = 3/MAM-mode)
In the case of a single reading, just one blood pressure reading is taken and stored.
The
blood pressure. 3 successive readings are taken at 15 second intervals, thus
eliminating widely varying readings. In the case of serious deviations a 4th reading
may be taken. From these three measurements, a weighted average value is
calculated, displayed and stored in the selected memory. A reading taken in this
way is indicated in the memory by an

Note
When the device is used, the errors Err 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 can occur
in the integrated circuit. Err 6 can only occur in 3MAM mode. In
3MAM mode, errors Err 1, 2, 3, 5 do not cause the measurement
to be cancelled, unless they occur twice in succession. The error
display is always accompanied by 3 short beeps.
T
Err 1: Measurement of the systolic blood pressure was completed.
Either the connection with the hose has been interrupted or no pulse could be
determined. Check the connections between the cu and the main unit.
Err 2: Non-physiological pressure has been detected.
Cause: the arm was moved during the measurement. Repeat the measurement,
keeping your arm still.
Err 3:
positioned or that the connection with the hose is not airtight. Check the connections
and repeat the measurement. If the same error occurs repeatedly with further
readings, please contact medisana .
Err 5:
the readings were being taken. Repeat the measuring process, keeping your arm
still and not speaking.
Err 6: There were too many errors during the measurement in MAM mode, making
it impossible to obtain a nal result. Read through the checklist for performing
reliable measurements and then repeat the measurement.
HI:
(over 200 beats per minute). Relax for 5 minutes and repeat the measurement..
LO: The pulse is too low (less than 40 beats per minute). Repeat the measurement.
