Microlife BP A150 AFIB [7/27] Appearance of the atrial fibrillation indicator for

5BP A150 AFIB

the ON/OFF button after the monitor has been pumped up to

a level of approx. 30 mmHg (shown on the display). Keep the

button pressed until the pressure is about 40 mmHg above

the expected systolic value – then release the button.

6. Appearance of the Atrial Fibrillation Indicator for

early Detection (only in AFIB/MAM mode)

This device is able to detect atrial fibrillation (AFIB). This symbol

AN indicates that atrial fibrillation was detected during the

measurement. If the AFIB symbol appears after having performed

a full blood pressure measurement episode (triplicate measure-

ments), you are advised to wait for one hour and perform another

measurement episode (triplicate measurements). If the AFIB

symbol appears again, then you are advised to visit your doctor. If

after repeated measurement the AFIB symbol is no longer

displayed there is no cause for concern. In such case it is recom-

mended to measure again the next day.

However, if the symbol appears on a regular basis (e.g. several

times a week with measurements taken daily) we advise you to

visit your doctor. Please provide the following explanation:



Keep the arm still during measuring to avoid false readings.



This device may not detect atrial fibrillation in people with

pacemakers or defibrillators.

7. Traffic Light Indicator in the Display

The bars on the left-hand edge of the display BT show you the

range within which the indicated blood pressure value lies.

Depending on the height of the bar, the readout value is either

within the optimum (green), elevated (yellow), too high (orange) or

dangerously high (red) range. The classification corresponds to

the 4 ranges in the table as defined by the international guidelines

(ESH, AHA, JSH), as described in «Section 2.».

8. Data Memory

This device always stores the last result at the end of the measure-

ment. To recall the reading, press and hold the ON/OFF button

while the device is switched off. All display elements are shown now.

Release the button when the stored result with the letter «

displayed.

9. Battery Indicator and Battery change

Low battery

When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol

will flash as soon as the device is switched on (partly filled battery

displayed). Although the device will continue to measure reliably, you

should obtain replacement batteries.

Flat battery – replacement

When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol AO will flash as soon

as the device is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot

take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.

1. Open the battery compartment 6 on the bottom of the device.

2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the

symbols in the compartment.

Which batteries and which procedure?



Use 4 new, long-life 1.5 V, size AA alkaline batteries.



Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry.



Remove batteries if the device is not going to be used for a

prolonged period.

Using rechargeable batteries

You can also operate this device using rechargeable batteries.



Only use «NiMH» type reusable batteries.



Batteries must be removed and recharged when the flat

battery symbol appears. They should not remain inside the

device as they may become damaged (total discharge as a

result of low use of the device, even when switched off).

Information for the doctor on frequent appearance of the

atrial fibrillation indicator

This device is an oscillometric blood pressure monitor that also

analyses pulse irregularity during measurement. The device is clin-

ically tested.

The AFIB symbol is displayed after the measurement, if atrial

fibrillation occurred during measuring. If the AFIB symbol

appears after having performed a full blood pressure measure-

ment episode (triplicate measurements), the patient is advised to

wait for one hour and perform another measurement episode

(triplicate measurements). If the AFIB symbol appears again, we

recommend the patient to seek medical advice.

The device does not replace a cardiac examination, but serves

to detect atrial fibrillation that often remains undiagnosed until

stroke occurs.
