Intended use of Braun VitalScan 5
Braun VitalScan 5 is a blood pressure monitor that has been developed for easy and ac-
curate blood pressure measurements from the wrist. The measuring accuracy of Braun
VitalScan 5 was tested at the time of manufacture and was proven by clinical research.
Blood pressure readings from a healthy 31-year old male, measured at 5-minute intervals.
Blood pressure measured in a doctor’s oce only provides a momentary value.
Repeated measurements at home better reect one’s actual blood pressure values
under everyday conditions.
Moreover, many people have a dierent blood pressure when they measure at home,
because they tend to be more relaxed than when in the doctor’s oce.
Regular blood pressure measurements taken at home can provide your doctor with
valuable information on your normal blood pressure values under actual «everyday»
conditions.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) and the ESH have set up the following standard
blood pressure values when measured at resting pulse.

What you should know about this
blood pressure monitor
For accurate measurements, all wrist blood pressure monitors
must be positioned at heart level. Example: if the monitor is
positioned 20 cm below heart level as shown on the left (e.g.
by putting the arm on a table), the reading you will obtain is
approximately 15 mmHg too high.
Therefore, the Braun VitalScan 5 has an easy positioning
system (A): it guides you to hold your measuring arm in the
right position at heart level and gives you conrmation of
correct arm position before measurement is taken.
