Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor Review
This is a digital upper arm blood pressure monitor. It will take measurements and store for 2 users for your records. The LED screen changes colors based on the level of your blood pressure. It is a very easy to use device. This monitor comes in 2 size cuffs for a proper fit and better accuracy. Upon ordering this BP monitor it comes with the arm cuff, users manual, LED display, and a carrying case.
I ordered the large BP moniter cuff. I was very surprised that this actually had a large cuff. Most of these moniters when they say large are not what I consider large and this is a problem if you can not get the cuff up to your arms for an accurate reading.
Now for the LED screen of this unit. To start with it is a back lit screen which makes it much easier to read. The numbers on the screen are very large making it even more visible to get your reading. The screen will also change colors as well based on your measurements. If the screen stays blue you are in good shape. If the screen moves to an orange color it means you are a bit hight. When the screen goes to red, this means your pressure is very high and you should takes steps to correct.
This device is super simple to use. There are directions on the cuff on how to place it for the best reading. From there all you have to do is hit the start/stop button and it will turn on and start building pressure in the cuff for your reading. From here all that is required is sitting still during the reading. Once it is done it will post the results on your LED screen. There are settings to record the last 60 readings for 2 seperate people. This will keep a great record to track.
With this cuff I took it to my doctors office to test the accuracy. I ran my cuff for a read out. I then waited 20 minutes to have the doctor's office machine to take a reading. It was pretty accurate with a plus or minus of about 7. It is not 100% accurate with the testing that I did run. However it is accurate enough to monitor over time with 60 readings to see if there is an issue. Not to mention if you are sky rocketing to the moon it will certainly show that result quickly with the little bit of difference.
If you are looking for a great way to monitor your blood pressure over time this is a device you should consider picking up. It offers a large LED screen, back lit screen, super easy to use, and stores up to 120 readings. I would like to thank Easy At Home Medical LLC and affiliates for sending me this BP cuff to try out and share my opinion.
