Blood pressure is the pressure created in the blood vessels by each heart beat. When
the heart contracts (= systole) and pumps blood into the arteries, it brings about a
rise in pressure. The highest value is known as the systolic pressure and is the first
value to be measured. When the cardiac muscle relaxes to take in fresh blood, the
pressure in the arteries also falls. Once the arteries are relaxed, a second reading is
taken – the diastolic pressure.

2.2 What is blood pressure?
The Upper arm blood pressure monitor BU 550 connect is a blood pressure unit
which is used to measure blood pressure at the upper arm. The measurement is car-
ried out by a microprocessor - already during the inflating process of the cuff. The de-
vice detects the systole and the measurement is completed earlier than using conven-
tional measurement methods. As a result, an unnecessarily excessive inflation pres-
sure in the cuff is prevented. Additionally, your device is able to recognize unregular
heartbeat (so-called arrhythmia), which may affect the measurements. In case an
arrhythmia has been deteced, the respective symbol will appear in the display of the
unit (see chapter 4.2 Taking a blood pressure measurement).
