PARR Technology

Prevent the risk of cardio disease and stroke by early detection of atrial fibrilation, premature contraction, trachyardia and bradcardia. Cardiac disorders need medical attention and thus early diagnosis is of paramount importance. The PARR technology detects arrythmia during regular blood pressure checks without any additional user skills, user interaction and measurement prolongation.

Atrial Fibrillation Detection (AFib)

The upper chambers of the heart (the atria) beat irregular (quiver) and mostly fast instead of beating effectively to move blood into the ventricles. This condition is associated with a higher risk for cardiac blood clots, stroke, heart failure and other heart-related complications. About 10 - 20 % of patients who suffer from an ischemic stroke also suffer from atrial fibrillation.

Premature Contraction Detection (PC)

Extra, abnormal heartbeats generated in abnormal locations of your heart, either in the atria (PAC) or in the ventricles (PVC) or the cardiac conduction nodes (PNC). These extra beats disrupt your regular heart rhythm, sometimes causing palpitations (e.g. skipped beats) in your chest. It may occur singularly or repetitively with various incidence. If not stress-related, they are a sensitive marker for a multitude of cardiac disorders, elevated ischemic stroke risk with PC.

Advantages of Blood Pressure Monitoring with PARR Technology

Rossmax Blood Pressure Monitors with PARR Technology enables early detection to PREVENT STROKE AND OTHER CARDIAC DISEASES with only one single measurement

Patented Technology Detects AFib, PC, TACH & BRAD

For the first time it is possible that routine oscillometric sphygmomanometer measurements lead to a proven distinction of clinically relevant types of pulse arrhythmia (not only AFib but also PC).

No Repetition Measurements Required

The conduct of the measurement with the presented clinically meaningful accuracy does not require measurement repetitions.

No Additional Skills Or Knowledge Required

This is a proprietary Rossmax technology, which executes the detection of pulse arrhythmia automatically and simultaneously while performing blood pressure measurements.

Home or Clinical Use

Rossmax PARR is recommended for screening or follow-up at home for patients and / or for clinical use.

Atrial Fibrillation Detection (AFib)

The upper chambers of the heart (the atria) beat irregular (quiver) and mostly fast instead of beating effectively to move blood into the ventricles. This condition is associated with a higher risk for cardiac blood clots, stroke, heart failure and other heart-related complications. About 10 % - 20 % of patients who suffer from an ischemic stroke also suffer from atrial fibrillation.

Premature Contraction Detection (PC)

Extra, abnormal heartbeats generated in abnormal locations of your heart, either in the atria (PAC) or in the ventricles (PVC) or the cardiac conduction nodes (PNC). These extra beats disrupt your regular heart rhythm, sometimes causing palpitations (e.g. skipped beats) in your chest. It may occur singularly or repetitively with various incidence. If not stress-related, they are a sensitive marker for a multitude of cardiac disorders, elevated ischemic stroke risk with PC.

Tachycardia (TACH)

Fast heart rate of more than 100 beats per minute (BPM) in adults. Unless being caused by physical or mental stress, indicator for cardiac and extra-cardiac disorders (e.g. coronary heart disease, hyperthyroidism, fever).

Bradycardia (BRAD)

Slow heart rate, heart rate of less than 55 beats per minute in adults. Unless caused by endurance training heart adaption, bradycardia may be related to a multitude of cardiac and extra cardiac disorders (e.g. electrolyte imbalance, medication, coronary and / or valvular heart disease).

Non type - specific arrhythmia (ARR)

"PARR" Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor

Clinical Test

The sensitivity and the specificity of PARR technology are concluded by comparing the detection results of PARR algorithm to the medical reference of the ECG.

PARR Technology has a sensitivity of 74.07% regarding PC and 78.67% regarding AFib. This result is obtained from clinical patients and cardiologic patients without data selections. Considering the amount of waveforms with high complexity among the raw data entries, sensitivity over 70 % is considered extraordinary. Over 90 % or even 100 % sensitivity might be possible with pre-test patient selection.

Stroke

• There are 2 types of stroke, ischemic type and hemorrhagic type. Ischemic strokes represent about 85% while hemorrhagic types concern about 15% of all cases.
• Among ischemic type stroke, 70% is caused by embolization.
• About 10-20% of patients who suffer from an ischemic stroke have AFib.

Coronary Heart Disease

• On the surface of the heart, coronary arteries are present. The lack of coronary perfusion is a major cardiac disease for people over 40 years old. (fig. A)
• A clogged coronary artery leads to a lack of oxygen in the ventricle peripheral to the arterial supply area. This may establish a pathological pacemaker which irregularly triggers contractions. (fig. B)
• Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) may indicate the presence of coronary heart disease. (fig.C)

What is systolic & diastolic?

The two conditions of the heart

1. SYSTOLIC: Muscle is tensed = pumping high blood flow and high pressure in artheries.
2. DIASTOLIC: Muscle is relaxed = no pumping slow blood flow and low pressure in artheries.

What is pulse rate?

The pulse rate is the number of heartbeats per minute

Tips to measure accurately

• Avoid any kind of stress before taking measurement (phyiscal, mental, eating, smoking)
• Sit down and relax 5min. prior to taking measurement
• Always take measurement in seated position and at the same arm (usually left arm)
• Make sure not to wear tight sleeves that would compress your arthery and influence blood flow. *Don’t roll up sleeve of your shirt, but take it off or if only thin fabric it can be worn flat on the skin underneath the arm cuff not affecting the measurement
• Adjust the cuff so that it is not too tight or loose
• Do not talk and move when taking measurement
• Do not cross leg and breathe gently when taking measurement
• Conditions at home should be the same for everyday reading

Tips to measure accurately-Correct Posture

Quick Guide

1. Unwrap the arm cuff. Put your left arm through the cuff loop. The color strip indication should be positioned closer to you with the tube pointing in the direction of your arm.
2. Turn your left palm upward and place the edge of the arm cuff at approximately 1.5 to 2.5 cm above the inner side of the elbow joint .Tighten the cuff by pulling the end of the cuff.
3. Center the tube over the middle of the arm. Press the hook and loop material together securely.
4. Allow room for 2 fingers to fit between the cuff and your arm. Position the artery mark (Ø) over the main artery (on the inside of your arm).
5. Plug in the cuff connecting tube into the unit.
6. Lay your arm on a table (palm upward) so the cuff is at the same height as your heart. Make sure the tube is not kinked.
7. This cuff is suitable for your use if the arrow falls within the solid color line as shown. If the arrow falls outside the solid color line, you will need a cuff with other circumferences.
8. Press the ON/OFF/START key. Measurement will then begin.

Blood Pressure Standard

Refer to the definition of the World Health Organization, the blood pressure ranges can be classified into 6 grades. (Ref. 1999 WHO-International Society of Hypertension Guidelines or the management Hypertension). This blood pressure classification are based on historical data, and may not be directly applicable to any particular patient. It is important that you consult with your physician regularly. Your physician will tell you your normal blood pressure range as well as the point at which you will be considered at risk. For reliable monitoring and reference of blood pressure, keeping long-term records is recommended. Please download the blood pressure log at our website www.rossmax.com.

Measurement Procedures

Here are a few helpful tips to help you obtain more accurate readings:

• Blood pressure changes with every heartbeat and is in constant fluctuation throughout the day.
• Blood pressure recording can be affected by the position of the user, his or her physiological condition and other factors. For greatest accuracy, wait one hour after exercising, bathing, eating, drinking beverages with alcohol or caffeine, or smoking to measure blood pressure.
• Before measurement, it's suggested that you sit upright (900) and quietly for at least 5 minutes as measurement taken during a relaxed state will have greater accuracy. You should not be physically tired or exhausted while taking a measurement. Make sure that the arm is same level with the heart when during take measurement in order to obtain more accurate readings.
• Do not take measurements if you are under stress or tension.
• During measurement, do not talk or move your arm or hand muscles.
• Take your blood pressure at normal body temperature. If you are feeling cold or hot, wait a while before taking a measurement.
• If the monitor is stored at very low temperature (near freezing), have it placed at a warm location for at least one hour before using it.
• Wait 5 minutes before taking the next measurement.

Remark: Please consult doctor for interpretation of results
