Taking your blood pressure is easy with this lightweight and convenient monitor. Simply wrap the cuff around your arm and squeeze the bulb to begin inflation. In seconds, your blood pressure and pulse readings are displayed on the large digital panel. Features:
The new Omron digital blood pressure monitor uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement. This means the monitor detects your blood's movement through your brachial artery and converts the movements into a digital reading. An oscillometric monitor does not need a stethoscope so the monitor is simple to use. Independently Validated
for Proven Accuracy The
most important feature of Omron blood pressure monitors is that they consistently
provide accurate results. This is why every Omron blood pressure model
has been tested, evaluated and proven to meet the rigorous safety and
accuracy standards set by independent organizations. Back to Blood Pressure Monitors Back to Manual Blood Pressure Monitors Omron Manual Blood Pressure Monitors FAQ

What Is Blood
Pressure? In a the most basic
sense, blood pressure is a way of measuring how much force is being exerted
on the walls of your blood vessels (artery) as blood flows through them.
Systolic is the pressure exerted as your heart contracts or beats. This
is measured as your heart sends a surge of blood through the vessels.
A reading of less than 120 mm Hg is considered normal. Diastolic is the
pressure exerted when your heart relaxes in between heartbeats in the
arteries. A reading of less than 80 mm Hg is considered normal. For adults,
HIGH blood pressure or hypertension is defined as a blood pressure greater
than or equal to 140 mm Hg / 90 mm Hg.
Importance
of Home Blood Pressure Monitoring Doctors, diabetes educators, physician assistants, nurses, the American Heart Association and other healthcare professionals recommend home blood pressure monitoring for various reasons, including the ability to provide them with better information to understand and manage your high blood pressure.
Additionally, many factors can affect your blood pressure, including physical exertion, emotional fluctuations, diet, medications and stress, so having your blood pressure monitored at a Pharmacy with an in-store device after you have been shopping or walking around might not provide you with an accurate measurement.
Monitoring your blood pressure at home allows you to more easily measure in a relaxed state and gives you the flexibility to take your measurements at various times during the day. By keeping track of your home blood pressure readings, you can provide your healthcare professional with a log of your blood pressure measurements over time, which can help them evaluate the effectiveness or need for medication.
Do You Know Your Cuff Size? An essential part of getting an accurate blood pressure reading is using the correct size arm cuff. Make certain that the cuff fits snugly around your arm. The cuff should make good contact with your skin and you should be able to fit one finger between the cuff and your arm.
Omron blood pressure cuffs are clearly marked for ease of use…the edge of the cuff should be located approximately ½” above the elbow and the green marker on the cuff is located above the brachial artery on the inside of the arm.
The majority of Omron’s blood pressure monitors come with a standard size cuff that fits arms 9”-13” in circumference. With these models, both small cuffs, fitting size 7”-9” arms, and large cuffs, size 14”-17”, are available. With certain models, such as the HEM-780, HEM-773 and HEM-712CLC, the cuffs that come with the products will fit larger size arms.
What is IntelliSense®? The IntelliSense® Monitor inflates the cuff to the ideal level with each use. No adjustments are required by the user to select an inflation level. This is especially convenient for hypertensive users and for people with certain arrhythmia or heart disorders, because their blood pressure is likely to fluctuate. The advantage is Personalized Inflation for maximum comfort. |
