Persediaan

1. Buka Pembungkusan Komponen: Carefully remove all items from the zippered storage case.
2. Periksa Kerosakan: Before each use, inspect the cuff, tubing, bulb, gauge, and stethoscope for any visible damage or wear. Do not use the device if any component is damaged.
3. Prepare the Cuff: Ensure the cuff is flat and ready to be wrapped around the arm. The standard adult cuff is designed for arm circumferences between 10 and 14 inches.
4. Attach Gauge: The aneroid gauge is typically pre-attached to the inflation bulb and air release valve. Ensure all connections are secure. The gauge often includes a clip for convenient attachment to the cuff or clothing during measurement.

Arahan Operasi

Follow these steps to accurately measure your blood pressure:

1. Penyediaan: Sit quietly for at least 5 minutes before taking your blood pressure. Ensure your arm is resting comfortably at heart level. Avoid talking during the measurement.
2. Pasangkan Manset: Wrap the cuff firmly around your bare upper arm, approximately 1 inch above your elbow. The artery marker on the cuff should be positioned over your brachial artery (on the inside of your arm). The cuff should be snug but not too tight.
3. Position Stethoscope: Place the stethoscope's diaphragm (the flat part) directly over your brachial artery, just below the cuff. Insert the earpieces into your ears.
4. Inflate the Cuff: Close the air release valve by turning it clockwise. Rapidly inflate the cuff by squeezing the inflation bulb until the gauge reads about 20-30 mmHg above your usual systolic pressure, or until you no longer hear a pulse through the stethoscope.
5. Deflate and Listen: Slowly open the air release valve by turning it counter-clockwise, allowing the pressure to drop at a rate of 2-3 mmHg per second. Listen carefully through the stethoscope.
6. Record Systolic Pressure: Note the reading on the aneroid gauge when you hear the first clear, rhythmic pulse sound (Korotkoff sound). This is your systolic blood pressure.
7. Record Diastolic Pressure: Continue to listen as the pressure drops. Note the reading on the aneroid gauge when the pulse sounds disappear or become very faint. This is your diastolic blood pressure.
8. Release Remaining Air: Once the diastolic pressure is recorded, fully open the air release valve to quickly deflate the cuff.
9. Remove Cuff: Remove the cuff from your arm.

Penyelenggaraan

• Membersihkan Cuff: Wipe the cuff with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not immerse the cuff in water. Allow it to air dry completely before storage.
• Cleaning the Stethoscope and Gauge: Wipe the stethoscope earpieces, tubing, and the aneroid gauge with an alcohol wipe or a damp kain. Elakkan bahan kimia yang keras.
• Storan: Store the blood pressure monitor in its zippered case in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Penentukuran: Manual blood pressure monitors should be calibrated periodically to ensure accuracy. Consult a healthcare professional or the manufacturer for calibration services.

Menyelesaikan masalah

• Manset Tidak Mengembang: Ensure the air release valve is fully closed by turning it clockwise. Check all tubing connections for leaks.
• Bacaan Tidak Tepat: Ensure the cuff size is appropriate for your arm (10-14 inches for standard adult cuff). Verify correct cuff placement and stethoscope positioning. Ensure you are relaxed and still during measurement. If readings consistently seem incorrect, the device may require calibration.
• Difficulty Hearing Pulse Sounds: Ensure the stethoscope diaphragm is placed directly over the brachial artery. Adjust earpiece position for comfort and sound clarity. Minimize ambient noise.
