"Blood Pressure Monitor" 2010-05-13
By Rack em up! (Anaheim, CA USA)
I bought this product about 1 month ago and so far it works just fine. I think I only have had 1 false reading and I check my blood pressure a couple of times each day. I would definitely reccomend this product to anyone who needs to monitor their blood pressure.

"Problems with Wristech measurements" 2010-02-03
By Robert L. Swarts (Hood Canal, WA)
I purchased a Wristech JB4630 in January '10. The device arrived promptly, in good order. It is compact, convenient, easy to use, and remarkably inexpensive. However, its readings are disturbing. I made several runs of measurements without changing position of my arm, and with my arm and the device positioned according to the manufacturer's instructions. One such run was 111/63, 114/62, 131/60, 112/61, 105/56, 111/62, and 115/57. Another was 123/70, 130/69, and 130/70. Still another 126/67 and 115/67. Sorry for all the numbers, but they illustrate the problem. The readings usually cluster around a definite value. For instance, in the first set, if you throw out the 'fliers' (105/62 and 131/60) the mean systolic pressure is 112.6 and the maximum deviation is 2.4 -- quite good. But what about those fliers? There is no way to decide ahead of time whether a result is valid or not. The only solution with this product appears to be to take at least three measurements separated by a minimum of 15 seconds without moving your arm. Then throw out any obvious flier and average the remainders. If possible take the product to the doctors office and compare it with reading taking using the traditional stethoscope/sphygmomanometer (ausculatory) measurement. This device uses an oscillometric method that depends on a software algorithm. Such algorithms are not always accurate for all people under all conditions. For instance, if you suffer any type of arrythmia, they can give erroneous readings.With proper care, this instrument can be useful, but should not be trusted for more than a casual indication of what your BP may be.

This is a poorly designed product that may fail to measure BP or give inaccurate results. Instructions are terrible.

"Good quality" 2010-07-14
By Tom (Martha's Vineyard, MA)
This is a quality made item.However, if you can be satisfied with the possibility of less accuracy, I would recommend the little Panasonic that I recommended previously. It is extraordinarily easy to use. I say less accurate, but I am not sure; I am sure that it is very consistent.

  
"Great Cuff" 2010-06-22
By Paul Welsh (Philadelphia, PA USA)
I'm an EMT in Pennsylvania who uses his skills about ohhh once every six months. It's a great certification to have as I'm a volunteer firefighter (we don't run EMS calls). For my personal equipment I bought this to replace a broken one and I'm very happy with it. Took a great BP and the material is awesome. For someone in my field you don't need anything better than this.

"It takes your blood pressure just fine." 2010-03-03
By Travis Dobry (PA)
I don't have any back ground to accurately rate this. However, My wife for whom I bought it for seems to think it works fine. She is currently a nursing student. We need to get the middle of the road Sphygmomanometer, so it seems this is working just fine. She can take blood pressure with it.

  
"Quality" 2010-01-24
By V. Minerva
I am very pleased with the workmanship and materials used to create this sphygmomanometer and cuff which was assembled, inspected and packaged in the USA. You get a one year warranty on all parts and a lifetime manometer calibration warranty. There seems little reason to buy a cheaper, lower quality product that you will have to have calibrated in a a few months or just plain replace. Invest a little more money in a quality product that will last. ADC doesn't lie when it describes the Diagnostix as "...designed to provide unrivaled durability and unparalleled comfort." The cuff is clearly marked with index and range which makes it very easy to determine proper cuff size. All of the markings on the gauge glow in the dark making it easy to read in low light situations. I highly recommend the Diagnostix Pocket Aneroid.

"Price increased $15.95 while in my cart!" 2010-05-12
By Sienna (Montana)
I haven't used this product, but I was going to order it today, until the price increased from $68.99 to $84.94 while in my cart! Geez $15.95 seems quite the punishment for wanting to buy a few more things from Amazon!! I realize that this can happen if you leave things in your cart for any length of time, but I didn't think a few minutes warranted the change! Very disappointed as this BP cuff was exactly what I was looking for and now I will probably not purchase it.

  
"Unit Does NOT Turn Off When Not in Use" 2010-04-06
By Rosie (Hyattsville, MD USA)
The unit works find but once you insert the batteries, unlike my other unit, it does not have an off button and therefore have inflated in the carrying case on its own when placed in a position that causes the start button to be depressed.My other unit, not a Life Source, has an on/off button and a start button and has never accidentally turn on.Also, the clock stays on when the unit is not being used. This is a major draw on the battery function. The only other option for use of this machine is to use the AC adapter and plug in and unplug the unit whenever use it required.(Personally, I would prefer an on/off button or switch in order to prevent the case of the inadvertent inflation of the cuff.)

Panasonic EW3039S Easy-to-Use Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor

Panasonic EW3039S Easy-to-Use Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor

Product By Panasonic(10 customers reviews)

Product Description

The Panasonic EW3039S Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor with Irregular Pulse Detection lets you measure your blood pressure whenever and wherever you wish. It's ideal for anyone who wants or needs to keep careful track of their blood pressure over a period of time. You can trust Panasonic Wellness products to help you monitor your physical health in the comfort of your own home. Their range of blood pressure monitors are among the most popular on the market because they're reliable, easy-to-use, and accurate.

The Panasonic EW3039S Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor offers: Digital filter technology. One-touch auto inflate. Automatic memory of 90 readings. Large digital LCD display.

If the EW3039S detects an irregular pulse, an icon will warn you of potential inaccuracy. View larger.

Easy to Use
Just wrap the cuff around your wrist, and with just one touch of the On/Off Start button, the monitor auto inflates for quick, easy measurements. An automatic memory feature allows two people to capture 90 readings each for a total of 180 readings. Each person can save readings in order to track them over time to observe trends.
The large LCD panel shows both blood pressure readings and pulse rate simultaneously. If the unit detects an irregular pulse, it will display an icon, indicating that the reading should be retaken as it is inaccurate. The same thing will happen if the device detects movement during the reading.
An easy to understand three-color light system makes it easy for you to understand what your reading is and whether it falls in the Hypertension, Prehypertension or Normal range.
The Panasonic EW3039S Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor runs on two AA Alkaline batteries which are included.
How it Works
The DFT (Digital Filter Technology) uses a sensor to detect and isolate only the essential pulse oscillation, which helps eliminate other noise factors and leads to quick and reliable measurements. This also helps avoid over-tightening of the cuff. The monitor lights up if you are moving during a reading, alerting you to the fact that your reading will not proceed unless you stop moving. The automatic memory feature allows you to capture save readings for two different individuals, making it easy to keep track of your results.





Technical Details

• 3-color confirmation system
• Memory up to180 readings ( 90 readings X 2 )

Product By SFO Medical(5 customers reviews)

Lowest Price : $33.99

Product Description

SFO Medical SFO-103HPL Fully Automatic Digital Arm Blood Pressure and Heart Rate/Pulse Monitor with Memory and Diagnostic Capabilities

Blood pressure fluctuates throughout the day, no self-adjustment is necessary as the monitor intelligently adjusts to your changing conditions. This monitor uses fuzzy logic intelligence to sense both your systolic and diastolic blood pressure values, and the result is personalized inflation with every reading. Arm discomfort and misreading due to improper cuff inflation are virtually eliminated.

The SFO 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. At the push of a button, the monitor automatically fills the cuff with air, starts deflation, then displays your systolic, diastolic, and pulse readings on an extra large display panel.

"Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor" 2010-04-14
By Christopher Johnson
This product is a real deal! It is fully automatic and has memory for two people, making it very easy to follow the history of my blood pressure. I brought the unit to my Doctor's office and he confirmed it was a great product. The best thing is that I got it a really great price!

  
"Great monitor for the price" 2009-05-15
By Tintin Norge (Louisville, KY USA)
PROS: This unit has a sturdy, stable base that sits nicely on a desk or table and doesn't move around while the cuff is put in place. We especially like the feature allowing more than one user to take pressures & maintain histories. The digital display is easy to read and indicates how your blood pressure compares to established health guidelines. The zippered travel case is a handy feature for those on the go. We have taken our monitor to the doctor to compare its readings with the doctor's monitor and they were nearly identical. We were amazed at the accuracy of this home monitor!

CONS: The only thing we had difficulty getting used to was the way the cuff is applied on the arm. It applies in the opposite direction from a monitor we had been using previously, causing us to put the cuff on upside down. Our adjustment issue might have more to do with us switching monitors than it does a flaw with this monitor's design. It just seems that the arm cuff application for this monitor is counter-intuitive.

OVERALL: This monitor is a great value, providing many features for a low price.

By Ajay Bhatia (San Jose, CA)

"Not for obese people" 2010-07-16
By Mike P. (Phoenix, AZ)
I kept getting "Error 3" which means it couldn't get a reading. My wife was getting readings, and hidden in the back of the specifications was the fact that the largest wrist circumference it can handle is 7.7". So I measured my wrist and it's 8" or even a little more.So, it might be a great product but I had to return it since it's useless for me.

  
"easy to travel with" 2010-07-15
By janjorjohn (Las Vegas, Nv)
I pruchased this wrist blood pressure reader for a trip so I wouldn't have to take my big one. It seems to read slightly higher than my arm monitor, but nothing I can't deal with. The position you are in really makes a difference in its' reading, but once you learn it's little differences, its' very convenient and easy to use. I know Homedics is a good brand, so I felt comfortable ordering this and was not dissappointed. I will continue to use this and put my arm one away. The travel case is a big plus - not mentioned in the product description that I can remember, but I knew it was there from a previous review. Very Happy with my purchase.

"Inaccurate readings" 2010-04-09
By Busy Hands
The monitor did not give accurate readings. It was always 60 or more points higher than the readings from other machines. If it was correct I would be st stroke level all the time. I returned it and will not buy another.

"As good as electronic would get" 2010-03-15
By J. Hack
Keeping in mind that all electronic BP monitors can only be so accurate it's not bad.

You MUST READ THE DIRECTIONS!

After reading the directions on how to wear it, what to do - it works fairly well.Occasionally inaccurate but believe it or not - you'll get that with these types.Buy a manual BP/steth and learn how to do it if you're that stressed. I always have mine as a backup.The BP monitor seems more accurate on me than the pulse.But probably one of the better electronic BP monitors you can buy for your wrist.

"Good Pressure monitor" 2010-02-17
By D. Ulloa (chula vista, ca United States)
I got this for my mother, who is not technologically savvy, and she was able to take her own blood pressure after only showing her a couple of times, which is a testament for the ease of use of this product. seems to be well made, and accurate, although i had nothing to reference it against. it was a bit particular about the position of your arm while taking the reading; if it wasn't at the exact level of your heart, it would return an error, but id rather that than an inaccurate reading. i would recommend this to anyone that needs to keep an eye on their blood pressure in between doctor visits.

"This is a great monitor" 2010-03-19
By D Dunn (Iowa)
I took this Panasonic EW31225 to my doctor and it was exactly with the same pressure my doctor got with his manual test. It is quiet and easy to use, but does take a bit to get use to putting the arm band on. It is also hard to plug in the hose in the back of the unit, but that is the only problem I have had with it. I am surprised that they can make such a quality product for such a resonable price.

"Useful, Convenient, Accurate, Reliable" 2010-03-02
By William Hees
Your blood pressure changes a lot from day to day, and even from minute to minute depending on what you're doing. Getting a single reading from your doctor once or twice per year is not sufficient. By having your own blood pressure monitor you can check your blood pressure every week, or every day, or in different situations like in the morning, at night, after eating, after drinking caffeinated beverages, after exercising, etc., and get a much more complete picture. You can learn what fluctuations are normal and you can spot long-term trends. Think of it like owning your own bathroom scale -- do you want to depend on your doctor to tell you your weight once a year, or do want to *know* your weight and regularly monitor how your lifestyle affects it? You should know it yourself -- same with blood pressure.This particular device is convenient and simple to use. You put the cuff on, press a button, sit still for a minute while it inflates, and look at the results. It gives you the basic information -- systolic, diastolic, pulse -- and a yellow or red warning light goes on if that particular reading indicates pre-hypertension or hypertension.You can press a button to save the results if you want. There are two such buttons, so two people can share the device and save their results separately. It's easy to view the saved results along with the date and time each reading was taken.To store the device you just roll up the cuff and put it into its own compartment in the back of the device. There are no extra parts to lose.This device seems to be accurate. I took mine along on my most recent check-up and its reading was in line with the doctor's readings.I've had my unit for two years and taken hundreds of readings with it and never had a problem with it. It's still on its first set of 4 AA batteries.

"Did not work at all for me." 2010-04-28
By Arthur Dirindin (Whiting IN)
I bought this monitor after much research on the net of BP monitors. The No#1 complaint I read about electronic monitors is their lack of accuracy. I bought the Lifesource Mod# UA-853ACP based on the reviews I read of it here and else where.I had mine four days and took it to my Doctor to compair it's readings in a SbS test with the Doctors manual BP monitor. In a space of 90 minuets the nurse took six reading and much to my compleate disapointment the Lifesource BP monitor was consistantly of average 15 points to high. The manual BP monitor was reading my BP at around 128/30 and the Lifesource would read a BP of 145/90. I then had a family friend who is also a RN do a second SbS test same as above, and again the Lifesource gave consistantly high measurements. I will add one thing my doctor as well as my friend the nurse both said. This model Lifesource monitor comes with two different sized arm cuffs. One for SM-MD sized arms and one for LG-XL sized arms. As it turned out the SM-MD cuff was dead on the line of being to small and the LG-XL cuff was also dead on the line for being to large. Both my Dr. and my friend the nurse said the fit problem was most likely the sorce of my problem as my arm measures 15.5" around as it did give accurate BP readings of my wife who the SM-LG cuff fit perfectly. So bottom line if your arm measures in the 15-16" range you might want to consider a different BP monitor or at least try a BP monitor on for size if you can before you buy.

  
"Lifesource UA-853ACP" 2010-04-19
By Texas Surfer (San Antonio, TX)
The Lifesource UA-853ACP seems to be fairly accurate, but I did have a problem with one of the memory features. The manual states that by pressing the memory button before the auto shut-off, that particular reading would not be memorized. This isn't a crucial function, but I feel it is of value. There are times when you might want to measure pressure under unusual circumstances, such as after exercise or while stressed, that will skew averages, so these readings should be deleted. However, this function didn't work with mine so I had it replaced. Amazon was great and immediately sent one, plus return shipping. I had both units for a few days and the second had the same problem, which means either the function is no longer supported or there is a bad batch. I decided to keep a spreadsheet so this issue is no longer a factor, but it is annoying that the unit doesn't work as the manual suggests it should. Other than this one issue, I do like the unit.

  
"Appears accurate and is easy to use" 2010-04-14
By D. Calderwood
After a couple of months of use the unit is meeting all my expectations. It is easy-to-use, appears to be accurate, and above all is helping me understand what environments induce stress for me. There's nothing like being able to see what your bp is when enjoying a nice conversation or awaiting a business conference call. The differences are an order of magnitude greater than I ever would have expected. At the price point of this unit there is no excuse for every home not to have one, because it makes so much more sense to manage the conditions that lead to high blood pressure than to get on the pill-pusher's train.

"ADC Advantage is a good buy." 2010-04-24
By Brian C. Satterfield
I am a professional and I like this product because it saves a lot of time and is fairly accurate if used per instructions. I have to take vital signs on at least eight people each day and with the aid of this device I can do this in a timely manner. For best accuracy, the monitor must be held at heart level.

"Spend a little more for a good monitor" 2010-04-02
By T. Keenan (Arizona)
Horribly inconsistent and inaccurate. Fluctuates 40+ points almost every reading for both me and my spouse. Gave up and got different monitor with a arm band, it works wonderfully. This is too important of a reading to save a few dollars on! There are $50 monitors that work wonderfully, get one of those instead.

"Accurate and "Out There"" 2010-06-16
By k8 (Arkansas, USA)
As earlier reviews have stated, this monitor is accurate and comfortable. The only drawback is its bulk. However, this might be an advantage since you can not easily put it away and out of sight like a wrist unit or a wrap around to be forgotten. Instead, it will be "out there" and you will be more likely to check your pressure when appropriate.

"Bogus charge" 2010-04-21
By James J. Tanner (Cape Coral, Florida)
Seller reported item to Amazon as shipped and had my card charged. Then they sent me an email saying the item was not available and they had no idea when it would be. Of course I consider this bogus and canceled my order. Still waiting for a charge back to my card and some sort of explanation.

"I am an RN and this is the best home BP machine I have found" 2010-03-30
By Diane A. Edvenson (Hollister, Ca)
I have been an RN for over 20 years now, and I am often asked by patients what is the best Blood pressure machine for home? My father, and mother in law, and myself all have high blood pressure and are on medication for this. I have purchased one of these machines for all 3 of our families. I had tried a couple other ones, but found them to be in accurate and at times difficult to use. This machine is simple to use. It is very accurate. I have tested it many times with our high tech blood pressure machines at the hospital. The fact that it can store a history of your blood pressures is so valuable. Take it with you to your doctors appointments and it helps your practitioner to know how to better manage your hypertension. Love this machine.

"Good product, I recommend it" 2010-01-24
By M. Jabori (Houston, TX)
I had an older product that was fairly accurate but produces slightly different reading as the test is repeated. The Panasonic showed more consistent results. The design eliminates cuff problems with other traditional devices.
