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.
The Color Confirmation System
Thanks to the color confirmation system, it's easy to read and interpret your results. The monitor uses a three color light system to indicate if your reading falls in the hypertension, pre-hypertension or normal range. For the Systolic measurement, red indicates hypertension (over 140); yellow indicates pre-hypertension (130-139); and green indicates readings in the normal range (under 129).

"Great machine." 2010-06-16
By Heirloom (State Colleg, PA USA)
I took the machine with me to my doctor's appointment. He compared the reading on my machine to the one he took and they were the same within measurement error. He said,"I believe the readings you got with your machine."The machine is very easy to use, and the storage/recall function is convenient and useful.

"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

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.
