2 Introduction
The SCHILLER BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA is an Ambulatory
Blood Pressure Recorder used for single and long-term recordings.
The device can take up to 100 measurements over a 24 hour
recording period, and up to 200 measurements over a 48 hour
recording period. All recorded data is stored in an internal memory
and can be uploaded to the medilogDARWIN2 program. The recorder
has four recording programs that can be defined by the user with
individual time and interval settings for each program. This enables
long-term blood pressure measurements to be taken at pre-set
intervals for different patients and conditions.
Standard
• BR-102 plus Ambulatory Blood Pressure recorder Standard, or BR-
102 plus PWA (Pulse Wave Analysis)
• Four rechargeable AA NiMH batteries
• Battery charger unit
• Cuff size ‘M’ (medium) adult, and pressure hose with microphone

2.1 BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA
2.1 BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA

The recorders are available as follows:
2.1.1 BR-102plus
The Standard BR-102 plus is identified by the black front casing.

There are two measurement methods available as follows:
• Option 1 employs the auscultatory (Riva-Rocci, Korotkoff) method

of measurement, with an oscillometric method as back-up. This
means that when a clear measurement cannot be obtained with the
auscultatory method, the oscillometric value is used. If a clear
measurement cannot be obtained with either method the BP meas-
urement is retaken. It is not possible to define oscillometric as the
primary measurement method.
• Option 2 employs the oscillometric method only. Note that with this
recorder no microphone is provided with the cuff.
2.1.2 BR-102 plus PWA
The BR-102 plus PWA (Pulse Wave Analysis) is identified by the

white front casing and takes measurements using the auscultatory
(Riva-Rocci, Korotkoff) method with oscillometric as back-up.
The setup and settings of the BR-102 plus PWA, measurement

interval, cuff application, and start and stop procedure are all identical
to the standard unit.
To obtain the extra data needed for PWA, the measurement cycle
differs from standard BP measurement. After every individual
measurement (and the SYS and DIA values recorded), the cuff is
again inflated to the diastolic pressure. This pressure is then held for
10 seconds while the PWA data is obtained. After 10 seconds the cuff
Art. no.: 2.511076 Rev.: g
is again deflated and ready for the next programmed measurement.
An outline of PWA principal is given at the end of this book (see BR-
102 plus PWA, page 65).

2.5.4 Battery Status for NiMH Rechargeable Batteries

The battery status display is a guide to battery capacity when using
NiMH rechargeable batteries supplied or recommended by
SCHILLER. If Energizer Ultimate Lithium Batteries are used, a
different battery symbol is displayed (see next page).
Full The battery symbol in the upper right of the screen, indicates the
80% battery status. When the battery is full, the symbol is filled and gives
an indication of current battery capacity as it reduces during the
Half full recording. The empty symbol indicates that the capacity is limited and
Low capacity (20%) that the batteries should be changed. If the batteries are not changed
Empty during this period, a warning message is given that the batteries must
be changed. If the batteries are still not changed an error message is
displayed before the recorder switches off (see next page).
WARNING ERROR

NO YES OK
• An audible and visual indication is given during recording when bat-

tery capacity is limited. When the indication is given and the record-
ing is to be continued, we recommend that the batteries are re-
placed at the first opportunity.
• When recording is stopped because of low battery capacity, and the
batteries are replaced within 5 hours of the recorder switching off,
the recording will continue (see Changing the Batteries During a 48
Hr Recording, page 38)
Battery Condition
Batteries deteriorate over time and must be replaced. An indication of
battery condition is given when batteries are first placed in the
recorder after a full charge, as follows:
Battery Indicator Battery Recording Capacity

Art. no.: 2.511076 Rev.: g
Full (100%) 24-hour recording is possible.

80% 24-hour recording should be possible.

Introduction 2
2.5.5 Battery Display for Energizer Ultimate Lithium Bat-

tery
If Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries are used, the battery status
display is shown blue and always ‘full’. This is because the voltage
hysteresis curve for these types of battery is not linear and the device
cannot accurately determine battery capacity. When battery capacity
is very limited the change battery messages (shown above) are still
displayed but the time interval between the messages is reduced.
2.5.6 Time Display

The current time is displayed in the top line of the display. The format
of the time display can be set to 24 hour or 12 hour display (am/pm
displayed) - this setting is defined in System setup (see DATE /TIME,

3.1 Safety BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA
3 BP recording
3.1 Safety
 Danger of unnoticed necrosis especially in patients with
decreased pain sensitivity (due to medication), or with older
patients with decreased blood circulation of the extremities. Only
carry out long-term measurement with these patients under
constant medical supervision.
 Possibility of strangulation especially in young or older patients,
patients with reduced mobility, or patients susceptible to
drowsiness due to drugs, etc. The danger increases at night. Only
carry out long-term measurement with these patients under
constant medical supervision.
 In some patients petechiae, haemorrhages or subcutaneous
haematomas may occur. All patients must be told when putting on
the cuff that if they experience pain during the recording they
should switch off the equipment and inform the doctor.
 The cuff must not be attached to a limb that is already used for
interventions such as:
– infusions
– SpO2 measurement (loss of data can occur during cuff inflation)
– if an arterio-venous shunt is present.
 When a five minute measurement interval is defined for recordings
of 24h duration or more, bruising or decreased blood circulation
can occur in the arm. Only carry out recordings with 5 minute
measurement intervals under constant medical supervision.
 It must be certain that, according to the health of the patient, the
use of the device will not damage blood circulation in the arm.
Art. no.: 2.511076 Rev.: g
Page 26
BP recording 3
BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA User Guide Safety 3.1
 To prevent excessive pressure, it is important to choose the

correct cuff size and to check that the correct setting is used in the
menu setup (Record Setup > Patient Group > Adult / Child).
 The cuff must not be placed over or near a wound that could cause
further injury.
 As with occasional blood pressure measurement, petechial
bleeding can occur in patients with coagulation disorders or having
anticoagulant treatment even with the correct cuff size.
 In patients who have had a single mastectomy or lymph node
clearance, the cuff can be placed on the opposite arm.
 When the patient is monitored by an ME unit, loss of data can
occur from the arm during cuff inflation at the ME equipment.
 During long term recording, the area where the cuff is attached
must be checked regularly for signs of ischaemia, purpuras and/or
neuropathy.
 To prevent incorrect measurement results, ensure that the tube is
not pinched or compressed.
 A cuff that is applied to a patient in the recumbent or sitting position
is normally located at the same level as the heart (i. e. middle of
the cuff at the level of the right atrium of the heart). However, if the
cuff is located at a level higher than the heart (for instance if the
arm of a patient in bed is lifted), this may result in lower-than-actual
measurement readings (approx. 7.5 mmHg per 10 cm rise).
 The unit is safe during defibrillation. However, as a safety
precaution, when possible remove the cuff and microphone before
defibrillation and, if connected remove the USB connector from the
recorder and the PC.
 Do not touch the unit casing during defibrillation.
 If the unit gets wet accidentally, switch off and dry with a cloth.
 If the unit is accidentally immersed in liquid, remove the batteries
and return to SCHILLER for checking.
A list of BR-102 plus error messages is given in the Maintenance

section (see Error Messages, page 58).

3.2 Applying the Cuff BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA
3.2 Applying the Cuff

The BR-102 plus is supplied with one of two cuff types. Both are
applied in the same way. The instructions detailed here give general
guidelines and apply to both types of cuffs:
1. Instruct the patient to remove upper clothing.

2. Select the appropriate cuff size according to the patient's upper
arm. Different cuff sizes are available dependent of type of cuff. To
determine the cuff size, measure the patient’s arm circumference
at the midpoint with a measuring tape.
3. Uncover the left upper arm of the patient. (The cuff is designed to
fit the left upper arm, but can be placed on the right arm if
required.)
4. Locate the brachial artery above the elbow bend inside the upper
arm.
5. Position the microphone (marked Micro) over the brachial artery
and secure cuff.
– Wrap the cuff around the upper arm in such a way that the patient
can still bend arm (the bottom edge of the cuff should be 2 cm
away from the elbow bend).
2 cm – Tighten the cuff and secure with the velcro strip. The cuff must be
tightened to such an extent that it fits properly on the upper arm
and is prevented from moving.
– To avoid a venous congestion do not tighten the cuff too firmly.
– The pressure hose and microphone cable must point to the pa-
tient's shoulder.
6. Place the pressure hose so that it is loosely positioned behind the
patients neck.
7. Connect the pressure hose and microphone cable (if not already
connected) to the recorder (see Connecting the Pressure Hose
and Microphone, page 16).
Art. no.: 2.511076 Rev.: g
Page 28
BP recording 3
BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA User Guide Applying the Cuff 3.2
8. Secure BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA to the right or left side of
the patient for preference using the holding pouch and belt
– Ensure that there is enough slack not to strain the hose when the
patient moves. Ensure that the patient is comfortable.
– Tape can be used to secure the tubing to the body if required.
9. When the cuff and device are comfortably positioned, the patient
can replace upper clothing.
• The oscillometric version does not contain a microphone; however,

the cuff is placed in the same manner.
Art. no.: 2.511076 Rev.: g
• It is recommended that the patient wears a t-shirt over the tubing to

help hold the tubing in place. This can be covered with for example,
a loose fitting shirt.
 To help keep the hose in position and prevent strangulation, the T-

shirt and/or outer clothing must remain on at night or be replaced
by the patient`s normal night wear over the hose.

3.2.1 Cuff Type with D-ring

There are three sizes available for the cuff with D-ring:
To fit arm size

Midpoint arm circumference Cuff designation
[cm]
18 - 26 S (Small adult, Child)
25 - 35 M (Adult)
35 - 45 L (Large adult)
Note: A cuff that is too small for the patient may give over
measurements. Similarly, a cuff that is too large for the patient
may give under measurements.
3.2.2 Cuff Type without D-ring

The cuff is positioned, and the hose routing and unit positioning is the
same as for the cuff with the buckle.
There are five sizes available for the cuff without D-ring:
To fit arm size

Midpoint Arm Circumference Cuff Designation
[cm]
Art. no.: 2.511076 Rev.: g
14 - 20 XS (Child, Osc only)

18 - 24 S (Small Adult, Child)
25 - 35 M (Adult)
30 - 36 L (Large Adult)
35 - 46 XL (Extra Large, Wide, Adult)
Note: A cuff that is too small for the patient may give over
measurements. Similarly, a cuff that is too large for the patient
may give under measurements.

BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA User Guide Applying the Cuff 3.2
3.2.3 Patient Comfort Sleeve

If the Patient comfort sleeve is to be used, the sleeve can be
positioned on the patients arm and then the cuff applied. Alternatively
attach the sleeve to the cuff with the velcro strip before applying to the
patient and then apply the cuff and sleeve together to the patient.
3.2.4 Fixing the Microphone Directly on the Upper Arm

If the patient‘s pulse is weak the microphone may be removed from the
cuff and placed directly on the upper arm to obtain more secure
measurements. A shaped adhesive pad is a standard accessory for
this purpose. To place the microphone directly on the arm proceed as
follows:
1. Carefully pull the microphone out of the cuff - Do not strain (see
Disconnecting the Pressure Hose and Removing the Microphone
and Bladder, page 47).
2. Remove the foam rubber microphone insert from the adhesive pad
and place the microphone in the pad (metallic (patient) side
outwards), and press to secure with the adhesive.
3. Using an alcohol solution (standard surgical strength) thoroughly
clean the patient‘s arm around the brachial artery area.
4. Wrap the cuff around the uncovered upper arm in such a way that
Art. no.: 2.511076 Rev.: g
the brachial artery is freely accessible. The pressure hose and

microphone cable face towards the patient's shoulder.
5. Locate the brachial artery, remove the plastic adhesive protector
and fix the microphone to the patient by applying gentle pressure
so that the adhesive holds the microphone.
6. Shift the cuff towards the elbow so that the patient can still bend his
lower arm (the bottom edge of the cuff should be 2 cm away from
the elbow bend). Outside the cuff, the microphone cable forms a
small loop. Fix with adhesive strips if necessary.
7. Tighten the cuff and close it with the fixation wrap as previously
described.
Page 31
3 BP recording
3.2.5 Securing the Cuff with the Fixation Pad

A velcro cuff fixing pad is a standard accessory that‘s available to help
secure the cuff from dislodging during long term measurement.
Attach the cuff to the patients upper arm as follows:
1. Using an alcohol solution (standard surgical strength) thoroughly

clean the patient‘s upper arm in the area where the pad will be at-
tached.
2. Remove the plastic adhesive protector of the velcro securing pad.
3. Place the pad on the patient‘s upper arm and apply gentle pressure
to secure (the exact location will depend on the size of the patients
arm and the size of the cuff used).
4. Position the cuff so that the velcro securing flap on the cuff
matches with the securing pad on the patient‘s arm, and secure..
The velcro plaster (set of 10), and the adhesive plaster for the
microphone (set of 10), are available from your local agent.

Patient Information 4
4 Patient Information
 Danger of strangulation. The shoulder strap or cuff tube can
become entangled around the patient’s neck and lead to
strangulation. The danger increases at night. Ensure the patient is
aware of the danger. The doctor should draw the patient’s
attention to the fact that the cuff must be worn on the upper arm
only and care must always be taken to ensure that neither the
shoulder strap nor the air tube ever become wrapped around the
neck. The air tube must be positioned under a T -shirt or outer
clothing that must continue to be worn at night over the tubing to
help keep it secure.
 Tell the patient that if any numbness in the arm, chafing, pain or
discomfort is experienced, the cuff must be removed and to
contact the surgery.
 Tell the patient not to get the unit wet - the unit is not waterproof
and must remain dry. If the patient is permitted to take a bath or
shower during the recording (e.g. when taking a 48 hour recording)
it must be emphasised that the recorder and the cuff must be

4 Patient Information
4.1 General BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA
4.1 General
Inform the patient about the use of the BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus
PWA and instruct the patient on the following points:
• Explain to the patient how to place the cuff correctly and the times
and intervals that measurements will be taken.
• The equipment must not be used in the vicinity of an MRI scanner.
• The performance of the BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA can be af-
fected by extremes of temperature, humidity and altitude.
• If taking a 48 hour recording, inform the patient how to change the
batteries. Instruct the patient to keep replacement batteries in the
bag or box provided and not to dispose of the old batteries. Spent
batteries must returned in the bag or container provided.
• Tell the patient that during the measurement:
– Noisy places should be avoided.
– Not to move the arm during the measurements and a recommen-
dation that where possible, the patient relaxes during the meas-
urement process and does not speak.
– Entries must be made in the patient diary during the long-term
measurement.
• The pressure tube and cuff must not be kinked, stretched or sub-
jected to compression or restriction. The air tube may kink when in-
flated. Explain to the patient that particularly when sleeping, the
equipment needs be positioned in such a way that the tube cannot
be compressed. If the patient is not fully competent, the equipment
should be worn only under supervision.
• After an invalid measurement a second measurement will be initiat-
ed immediately.
• The recorder should not be turned off during the recording.

BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA User Guide Overview 9.1
9 BR-102 plus PWA

9.1 Overview
The clinical usefulness of central blood pressure (BP) as an index of
risk for cardiovascular disease and the augmentation index (AIx) is
often cited with relation to sex, age and heart rate. Arterial stiffness is
an important determinant of cardiovascular risk and the augmentation
index (AIx) is a measure of wave reflection and thus systemic arterial
stiffness derived from the ascending aortic pressure waveform.
The central arterial pulse wave is the sum of the forward pressure
wave generated by left ventricular ejection and a backward
propagating wave that is subsequently reflected from the peripheral
site. The time point at which these forward and backward propagating
waves merge and the amplitude of the reflected (backward) wave
affect the level of central BP.
9.2 Measurements
After every BP measurement, the cuff is again inflated to the diastolic
pressure and held for 10 seconds while PWA data is obtained (see
BR-102 plus PWA Unit Measurements, page 43).
9.3 Display of Pulse Wave Analysis

Pulse wave analysis is based on arterial blood pressure curve
containing haemodynamic information that exceeds peripherally
measured blood pressure. This is used to analyse the central aortic
pulse wave. The medilogDARWIN2 displays the following values:
• Central blood pressure

• Central pulse pressure
Art. no.: 2.511076 Rev.: g
• Augmentation pressure
• Augmentation index
• Alx@75 [90% confidence interval]
• Peripheral resistance
• Pulse Wave Velocity [PWV]
Page 65
9 BR-102 plus PWA
9.4 Method BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA
9.4 Method
Ten pulse waves are filtered and averaged to determine the central
arterial pulse wave. The augmentation index is standardised for a
pulse rate of 75 bpm (see reference [1]). This parameter is then
described as Alx@75.

Average value and 90% confidence interval for the Alx@75
Alx@75 has been analysed in a representative cross-section of the

population (see reference [2]), and an age-dependent estimate for the
Alx@75 plus the respective confidence interval have been assessed.
These relevant analyses have also shown that there is a significant
difference for the average Alx@75 between men and women.

Patient Diary 10
BR-102 plus / BR-102 plus PWA User Guide Patient Diary Example 10.1
Based on research with a surveyed cross-section of the population of

about 2,000 people average values and 90% confidence interval were
determined. An increase of the Alx until the 55th year has been
identified and after the 55th year the increase slows for both sexes.
The level difference of the Alx between the sexes is about 8 to 10%.
If the measured values exceed the sex- and age-specific interval,
further examinations according to the European examination
guidelines for hypertension [3] are recommended in order to detect
the reason for the dysfunction.

WARNING
• If you experience any numbness in the arm, chafing, pain or discomfort remove the cuff and contact
your doctor immediately.
• Danger of strangulation from the hose. Ensure a T-shirt or outer clothing is worn over the hose and
unit at night.
• The BR-102 plus/PWA must not be used in the vicinity of an MRI scanner.
CAUTION
• The unit is not waterproof, do not get wet - remove the recorder and cuff if you take a bath or shower.
NOTE
• If using the BR-102 plus/PWA outdoor at significant lower temperature as 5°C, make sure that you
wear a warm long coat to keep the device temperature above 5°C. Significant lower temperature may
reduce the battery performance and therefore the max. recording time.

DURING THE RECORDING
• Do not to move the arm during the measurements.
• Avoid noisy areas when a measurement is being taken.
• If an invalid measurement is made, a second measurement will be initiated immediately.
• The unit must continue to be worn during the night time period. Wear a T-shirt or continue
to wear normal outer clothing over the tubing at night to help keep it secure.
Control buttons
• If you have a PWA monitor a second phase is initiated after every measurement: the cuff
is again re-inflated and remains inflated for approximately 10 seconds before deflating
ready for the next measurement.
