5. പ്രവർത്തന നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ

കൃത്യമായ രക്തസമ്മർദ്ദം അളക്കുന്നതിന് ഈ ഘട്ടങ്ങൾ പാലിക്കുക:

1. രോഗിയുടെ സ്ഥാനം: Have the individual sit comfortably with their arm resting on a flat surface at heart level. Ensure they are relaxed and have not exercised, consumed caffeine, or smoked for at least 30 minutes prior.
2. കഫ് പ്ലേസ്മെൻ്റ്: Wrap the cuff firmly around the upper arm, approximately 1 inch (2-3 cm) above the elbow. The artery mark on the cuff should align with the brachial artery. The Size Guide on the cuff helps confirm correct fit.
3. Inflate Cuff: Close the air release valve by turning it clockwise. Rapidly inflate the cuff by squeezing the inflation bulb until the gauge reads approximately 20-30 mmHg above the expected systolic pressure, or until the radial pulse is no longer palpable.
4. Deflate Cuff and Read Pressure: 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.
   • Systolic Pressure: Note the reading on the gauge when the first clear, tapping sound (Korotkoff sound) is heard through a stethoscope (not included).
   • Diastolic Pressure: Note the reading on the gauge when the sounds disappear or become very faint.
5. Release Remaining Air: Fully open the air release valve to completely deflate the cuff.
6. Record Readings: Record the systolic and diastolic pressures. Wait a few minutes before taking another reading if necessary.

6. പരിപാലനവും പരിചരണവും

• വൃത്തിയാക്കൽ: Wipe the cuff with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not immerse the cuff or gauge in water. The Adflow filter screen check and deflation valves help reduce dust build-up, but regular cleaning of external surfaces is recommended.
• സംഭരണം: Store the device in a clean, dry place at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• പരിശോധന: Regularly inspect the tubing for cracks or leaks, and the cuff for wear and tear. Ensure the air release valve operates smoothly.
• കാലിബ്രേഷൻ: Aneroid sphygmomanometers should be checked for calibration accuracy periodically, typically every 1-2 years, or if dropped. Consult a qualified technician for calibration services.
