Frequently Asked Questions

• What are the parts of Dr.Odin’s digital blood pressure monitor?
  A blood pressure monitor, or sphygmomanometer, uses an inflatable air-bladder cuff and a listening device or pressure sensor to measure blood pressure in an artery.
• What is the function of Dr.Odin’s digital blood pressure monitor?
  A digital blood pressure monitor is a fully or semi-automated, simple, lightweight machine used for monitoring blood pressure. It measures blood pressure and pulse simply and quickly and is easy to use, reliable and portable.
• What causes a blood pressure machine to error?
  If you are experiencing error codes during the early stages of an attempted BP measurement, it is most likely due to a blocked hose or a leak in the hose, connector or cuff. Check for any leaks by listening closely to the hose, connector and cuffs and also make sure you, or the patient, are not stepping on the hose.
• What does the flashing heart on BP monitor mean?
  The Heartbeat Symbol flashes when the blood pressure reading stored in the memory is above 135 for the Systolic Blood Pressure value and/or above 85 for the Diastolic Blood Pressure value.
• What is the best position to take blood pressure?
  With the cuff on your bare arm, sit in an upright position with back supported, feet flat on the floor and your arm supported at heart level. Make sure the bottom of the cuff is directly above the bend of the elbow. Relax for about five minutes before taking a measurement.
