Welcome to LinkView
What is the LinkView?
LinkView is a home monitoring tool. It sends important health information to
your healthcare team. This may allow your doctor and other healthcare team
members to take action before your symptoms get worse. Your healthcare
team can make changes to your care plan to help you stay healthy.
How do you participate?
Your healthcare team has provided the LinkView for you to use at home.
You should use LinkView every day. You may use LinkView to measure your
weight, peak flow, oxygen saturation, blood pressure and/or blood glucose
levels. You should do this as instructed by your healthcare team. This data
will be sent to your healthcare team each day. The LinkView uses its own
cellular connection or your wireless router to send the data so there will be
no charge to you.
What are the benefits of using LinkView?
• Allows for intervention before symptoms worsen
• Keeps you in touch with your doctor and his or her team
• Teaches you about your health condition
Keep this manual near your LinkView for a
quick reference.

Using LinkView
Each day you will take a Health Check. This may include:
• Answering a series of questions about your health status.
• Measuring your vital signs, like weight, blood pressure, oxygen
saturation, peak flow or blood glucose levels.
That’s it!
LinkView automatically sends your Health Check data to your healthcare
team. The transmission process usually takes less than one minute to
complete.
More About the Health Check
Your Health Check asks a series of health related questions and gathers
your vital sign data. The Health Check may also contain messages to teach
you about your health condition. Your health information is then sent to your
healthcare team.
How to Start Your Health Check
1. Each day you will turn on your LinkView by touching anywhere on the
screen.
2. Press the “My Health Check” button to begin your Health Check.
3. LinkView may ask you a series of questions about your current
symptoms. Answer each question based on how you are feeling.

2. Check for any damage incurred in shipping. If you note any damage, call
your care provider as soon as possible.
NOTICE
While storing equipment, avoid tightly folding the blood pressure cuff
or storing the hose tightly twisted for long periods, as such actions may

Measuring Blood Pressure
1. During the Health Check, LinkView will prompt you to sit down to
measure your blood pressure and provide a video with the following
instructions:
• Place the cuff on your upper arm over bare skin.
• The cuff should be an inch above the bend of your arm.
• The tubing should run down the middle of the inside of your arm.
• Wrap the cuff tightly around your arm.

12/15/2016 3:35:06 PM
Blood Pressure
• Rest your arm and hand on a table or hard surface. Your arm
should be at heart level.
Rest your arm
and hand at heart
level on a table or
other hard surface
for support
The tubing should
run down the
inside of your arm
2. LinkView will prompt you to “Press START to check Blood Pressure.”
Press the START button on the LinkView when you have the cuff properly
attached to your arm and are ready to check your blood pressure.
3. LinkView will instruct you to remain still and indicate it is checking your
blood pressure. Wait while LinkView measures your blood pressure. The
cuff may get very tight during the measurement. Do not be alarmed; this
is normal.
CAUTION
If the pressure is too painful or the cuff is too tight, press the STOP
button on the device, remove the cuff from your arm, or pull the cuff
hose out of the LinkView.
WARNING
Blood flow interference and harmful injury can be caused by continuous
cuff pressure due to connection tubing kinking.
4. When LinkView has completed your blood pressure measurement, it will
indicate it is “Determining Blood Pressure.” You may now remove the
blood pressure cuff from your arm.

750007-001 REV H1 MANUAL,LINKVIEW,ENGLISH.indd 30
12/15/2016 3:35:06 PM
Blood Pressure
5. LinkView will speak and display your blood pressure and heart rate and
automatically transmit your data to your healthcare team.
6. If LinkView was not able to measure your blood pressure, it will provide
additional instructions. Follow these instructions to recheck your blood
pressure.
If you need to take multiple blood pressure readings, let your arm
rest for at least 5 minutes between readings.
WARNING
Too frequent of blood pressure measurements can cause injury due to
blood flow interference.
For Accurate Blood Pressure Readings
• Take your blood pressure while you are relaxed. If necessary, relax for a
few minutes before starting the Health Check.
• You should be in a seated position with your legs uncrossed and your
feet flat on the floor.
• Remain still and do not talk during the measurement process. Excessive
movement can make it hard for LinkView to take your blood pressure.
• Eating, drinking or smoking can change your blood pressure. Try to avoid
these activities for 30 minutes before measuring your blood pressure.
• Make sure to rest your arm between readings.
• Blood pressure varies in all people depending on activity, stress level,
food and drink intake and time of day.
• The blood pressure cuff size can affect your readings. If your arm is
bigger or smaller than the range printed on the cuff, ask your care
provider for a new cuff.
31
750007-001 REV H1 MANUAL,LINKVIEW,ENGLISH.indd 31
12/15/2016 3:35:06 PM
Blood Pressure
• Do not allow other people to use LinkView to measure their blood
pressure.
WARNING
Do not use the blood pressure cuff where either an intravascular access
or therapy, or an arterial (A-V) shunt, is present, as this may cause
interference to blood flow and result in an injury.
WARNING
Do not use the blood pressure cuff or any other part of the device on
part of your body with an existing injury or wound. Such use may result
in further injury.
WARNING
Do not use the blood pressure cuff on an arm on the side of a
mastectomy. Doing so may result in further injury.
WARNING
Check by observing the limb that operation of the unit does not result in
prolonged impairment of circulation.
About the Blood Pressure Measurement Device
Blood pressure measurements determined with this device are equivalent
to those obtained by a trained observer using the stethoscope auscultatory
method, within the limits prescribed by the American National Standard,
Manual, electronic, or automated sphygmomanometers.
The blood pressure cuff will get tight around your arm in order to measure
your blood pressure. The device is designed to automatically deflate.

Blood Pressure
Some people are more sensitive to pressure and may experience physical
effects, including bruising of the area where pressure is applied. Consult
your healthcare team if you bruise easily and have concerns regarding
routine monitoring of blood pressure.
WARNING
Do not use the blood pressure cuff on an arm while monitoring
equipment is already in use, as this can temporarily cause loss of
function of the monitoring equipment.
NOTICE
The effectiveness of this sphygmomanometer has not been established
in pregnant (including pre-eclamptic) patients.

Additional Information
EMC Information about the LinkView
The LinkView is compliant with IEC 60601-1-2:2007 for Safety & EMC Requirements for Medical Devices.
Electromagnetic Compatibility
Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and needs to be
installed and put into service according to the information provided in this user manual.
Portable and mobile radio frequency (RF) communications equipment can affect medical electrical equipment. The
following table provides recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment
and the LinkView.
Recommended separation distances between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the LinkView
The LinkView is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled.
The customer or the user of the LinkView can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum
distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the LinkView as recommended
below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters
(m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output
power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
