Fuzzy Logic Measuring Technology

This Physio Logic™ monitor uses the oscillometric method to

detect your blood pressure. Before the cuff starts inflating, the

device will establish a baseline cuff pressure equivalent to the air

pressure. Your Physio Logic™ monitor will determine the

appropriate inflation level based on one's pressure oscillations,

followed by cuff deflation. During the deflation, the device will

detect the amplitude and slope of the pressure oscillations and

thereby determine the systolic, diastolic, and pulse for you.

Statement of Accuracy

Blood pressure measurements determined with Physio Logic™

are equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using cuff /

stethoscope auscultation method, within the limits prescribed by

the American National Standard for Electronic or Automated

Sphygmomanometers (ANSI / AAMI).

About Blood Pressure

Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the arterial wall while

blood flows through the arteries. The pressure measured when the

heart contracts and sends blood out of the heart is systolic

(highest). The pressure measured when the heart dilates with blood

flowing back into the heart is called diastolic (lowest) blood

pressure.

High blood pressure’s strong correlation with cardiovascular

diseases and high morbidity has made measuring blood pressure a

necessity of identifying those at risk.
