Systolic and diastolic blood pressure values1.
The cardiovascular system has the important function of supplying all
organs and tissues in the body with sufficient amounts of blood and of
transporting metabolites. To do so, the heart contracts and expands at a
regular rate of about 60 to 80 times per minute. The pressure of the flowing
blood on the artery walls caused by the heart contracting is termed systolic.
The pressure in the ensuing relaxation phase, when the heart refills with
blood, is termed diastolic. During daily measurement you determine both
values.
Why you measure different values2.
Our blood pressure responds to internal and external influences like a
sensitive measuring instrument. It can be affected by even slight changes.
This explains why values measured by a doctor or pharmacist are higher
than those measured at home in the environment you are used to. Changes
in the weather, climate changes, or physical or psychological stress can have
effects as well.
When the date/time function is activated, the measured values are displayed
alternately with memory number, date and time.
The unit switches itself off automatically 30 seconds after the memory is
called up.
