Before using the unit
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON i-Q142 Intellisense SpotArm™
Type Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor.
The OMRON i-Q142 Intellisense is a fully automatic blood pressure
monitor, operating on the oscillometric principle. It measures your
blood pressure and pulse rate simply and quickly. For comfortable
controlled inflation without the need for pressure pre-setting or re-
inflation the device uses its advanced “Intellisense” technology.
The adjustable cuff angle corrects the body posture which tends to be
stooped. The elbow rest stabilizes the position and keeps the arm at
the most appropriate angle.
By simply placing the arm through the cuff, it automatically wraps
around your arm to the appropriate size and starts to measure your
blood pressure and pulse rate.
The monitor stores measurement results for two people and features
morning and evening averages.
EN
Omron's blood pressure management software and printer are
optional. The software allows you to view, manage and print data about
blood pressure measured by the OMRON i-Q142 Intellisense.
Software is in English only.
Please read this instruction manual thoroughly before using
the unit. For specific information about your own blood
pressure, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.

3. Using the Unit
Note: You can take a measurement on either your left or right
arm. The blood pressure can differ between the right
arm and the left arm and therefore also the measured
blood pressure values can be different. Omron
recommends to always use the same arm for
measurement. If the values between the two arms differ
substantially, please check with your physician which
arm to use for your measurement.
If you are leaning forwards, this can put pressure
Incorrect Posture
on your stomach, which could cause the
measurement results to be incorrect. Readings
cannot be taken correctly in the following cases.

Symbol Information:
• If your systolic or diastolic pressure is
outside the standard range, the Heartbeat
symbol (
) will blink when the
measurement result is displayed.
Recent research suggests that the following
values can be used as a guide to high blood
pressure for measurements taken at home.
Systolic Blood Pressure
Above 135 mmHg
Diastolic Blood Pressure
Above 85 mmHg
This criteria is for home blood pressure measurement.
For professional office blood pressure measurement criteria,
please refer to Chapter 8.
• Your blood pressure monitor includes an
irregular heartbeat feature. Irregular
heartbeats can influence the results of the
measurement. The irregular heartbeat
algorithm automatically determines if the
measurement is usable or needs to be
repeated. If the measurement results are
affected by irregular heartbeats but the result
is valid, the result is shown together with the irregular
heartbeat icon. If the irregular heartbeats cause the
measurement to be invalid, no result is shown. If the Irregular
heartbeat symbol (
) is shown after you have taken a
measurement, repeat the measurement. If the Irregular
heartbeat symbol (

What is Arrhythmia?
A heartbeat is stimulated by electrical signals that cause the
heart to contract.
Arrhythmia is a condition where the heartbeat rhythm is
abnormal due to flaws in the bio-electrical system that drives
the heartbeat. Typical symptoms are skipped heartbeats,
premature contraction, an abnormally rapid (tachycardia) or
slow (bradycardia) pulse. This can be caused by heart disease,
aging, physical predisposition, stress, lack of sleep, fatigue etc.
Arrhythmia can only be diagnosed by a doctor through a
special examination.
EN
Whether the appearance of the Irregular heartbeat symbol
(
) in the results indicates arrhythmia or not can only be
determined by an examination and diagnosis by your doctor.
Warning:
If the Irregular heartbeat symbol (
) is shown frequently,
please make your doctor aware of it. Conducting self-
diagnosis and treatment based on measurement results
are dangerous. Be sure to follow the instructions of your
doctor.

3.5 Using the Memory Function
The unit is designed to store the blood pressure and the pulse rate in
the memory for two people (user A and user B) every time a
measurement is completed.
The unit automatically stores up to 84 sets of measurement values
(blood pressure and pulse rate) for each user (A and B). When 84 sets
of measurement values are stored, the oldest record is deleted to save
the most recent values. The unit also stores 8 weeks of morning
averages and 8 weeks of evening averages for each user (A and B).
Average Function
The unit calculates the average reading based on the three most
recent sets of measurement values taken within 10 minutes of the most
recent reading.
Note: If two sets of measurement values are stored in the
memory for the 10 minutes period, the average is based
on the two sets of measurement values. If one set of
measurement values is stored, this is displayed as the
average.

8. Some Useful Information about Blood Pressure
What is Blood Pressure?
Blood pressure is a measure of the force of blood flowing against the
walls of the arteries. Arterial blood pressure is constantly changing
during the course of the heart's cycle.
The highest pressure in the cycle is called the Systolic Blood Pressure;
the lowest is the Diastolic Blood Pressure.
Both pressure readings, the Systolic and Diastolic, are necessary to
enable a doctor to evaluate the status of a patient's blood pressure.
Why is it a Good Thing to measure Blood Pressure at Home?
Having your blood pressure measured by a doctor can cause anxiety
which is itself a cause of high blood pressure. As a variety of conditions
affect blood pressure, a single measurement may not be sufficient for
an accurate diagnosis.
Many factors such as physical activity, anxiety, or the time of day, can
influence your blood pressure. Thus it is best to try and measure your
blood pressure at the same time each day, to get an accurate
indication of any changes in blood pressure. Blood pressure is typically
low in the morning and increases from afternoon to evening. It is lower
in the summer and higher in the winter.
Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury (mmHg) and
measurements are written with the systolic pressure before the
diastolic e.g. A blood pressure written as 140/90, is referred to as
140 over 90 mmHg.

This classification is based on the blood pressure values measured on
people in a sitting position in outpatient departments of hospitals.
Note: There is no universally accepted definition of
hypotension. However, those having the systolic
pressure below 100 mmHg are assumed as
hypotensive.
