Facts About Blood Pressure


Your heart is your most important organ, and it's a good idea to know how well it's doing. With Omron home blood pressure monitors, you consistently get an accurate picture of your heart's health.


One in three adults suffer from high blood pressure in America. This condition can lead to heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure, and blindness. With the Omron 7 SERIES wrist monitor, you can monitor your blood pressure at home, and with the help of your physician, take steps to decrease your risk of heart disease. A healthy heart combined with a healthy lifestyle will help increase your chances for a long, active life.

View this chart to learn more about what the numbers mean.

What the Numbers Mean
Understanding your readings is easy with the Omron 7 SERIES blood pressure monitor. The easy-to-read screen displays your readings in large font and labels each number with a tab along the side.

     Systolic Pressure is the top number on the display. It's the pressure created as your heart contracts to pump blood throughout the body.

     Diastolic Pressure is the bottom number on the display. It's the pressure between beats, when your heart relaxes.

These numbers combine to give you your blood pressure reading (systolic over diastolic pressure).

How to Monitor + Tips
Your blood pressure numbers often change. For instance, your blood pressure in the morning can be significantly different than at night, when you visit a doctor's office, or after exercising. By using an Omron blood pressure monitor at home, you're able to detect changes in your blood pressure any time you want.

Monitoring at Home is Easy
To ensure an accurate reading, do not measure your blood pressure within 30 minutes of:

Exercising Eating Smoking Drinking Alcohol Bathing

Place the blood pressure arm cuff on your left arm and sit quietly for approximately five minutes with both feet flat on the floor. Then, when you are ready to test, simply press the start button and the Omron monitor will do the rest.

What's in the Box

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, easy to use blood pressure monitor, January 26, 2011

(What's this?)

I was very excited to be able to review this product as I have high blood pressure and have searched for years for an easy to use, accurate monitor. Years ago, the best I could find in the marketplace were upper arm, clunky automatic blood pressure monitors that were difficult to use and produced wild, varying results. The Omron Bp652 is an incredible leap forward for accurate and precise home monitoring of one's blood pressure via a wrist monitor. I of course need to state at the beginning of this review that if you have hypertension, you need to be under a doctor's care and this product does not replace a physician's care, however, it is a wonderful tool for monitoring at home how well your meds are , or are not, keeping your blood pressure under control.

To test the accuracy of this monitor, I took it with me to my doctor's office. My physician measured my bp as 120/81. Minutes later, I used the Omron which gave a measurement of 121/83. That is remarkably close to my physicians bp measurement. Now, I wanted to take a look at how precise the Omron was, i.e. were several measurements taken back to back close? Yes they were! Three back to back measurements by the Omron that night were 116/79, 118/81 and 118/82. Those measurements indicate a high degree of precision. So, in my limited testing that day, the Omron appeared to be exceptionally accurate and precise. I was very impressed.

I think the reason for the Omron's excellent measurements is in large part due to the superb instructions enclosed with the monitor in conjunction with excellent technology built into the monitor itself. Very good drawings and descriptions are given of how and where to correctly position the monitor on the wrist. Then there is the wonderful Heart Sense technology the Omron employs. For best results, the wrist should be at heart level, or in the "Heart Zone". To guide the user to this Zone, the monitor uses a system of orange and blue lights. If the light is orange, you are outside of the Zone and/or are not wearing the monitor correctly and will get an erroneous reading. If the monitor is being worn correctly and the wrist (with monitor) are placed within the Heart Zone, a blue light will come on and the cuff will begin inflating. At the very beginning of using this monitor I had a little bit of trouble finding the right position to wear the cuff on my wrist and I also had problems finding my Heart Zone. But the orange/blue light system led me very quickly to the correct way to wear the monitor and then position my wrist relative to my heart. It was a really interesting experience. When the Omron indicated (by the orange light) that everything was not optimal, I did not receive good readings. But when I got it right and the blue light popped on, the results were stunningly accurate and precise as evidenced by the data I gave earlier. It's really a very easy process, dummy proof (I can be one so I should know!) and very fast.

I really like this bp monitor and would highly recommend it to anyone with blood pressure issues. High blood pressure is an insidious but serious illness capable of killing over time, and it needs to be monitored. The Omron Bp652 is a wonderful home partner for the control of hypertension. And it also needs to be noted that the Omron will pick up an irregular heart beat and report that to the user- very valuable. Even if the pulse is regular, having the pulse rate measured is very convenient as I also suffer from tachycardia (an abnormally fast heart rate) so I can do various activities at home and give my doctor feedback on my heart rate.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good blood pressure monitor, January 26, 2011

(What's this?)

As someone with borderline hypertension, occasionally measuring my blood pressure is important. I have been using the Microlife 3AX1-4U Premium Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor with Dot Matrix Technology for several years. It is reasonably accurate and easier to use compared to a manual blood pressure cuff.

The Omron blood pressure monitor is a similar design to the Microlife. They are both wrist monitors that use the oscillometric measuring method. The Omron is more convenient in that it guides the user to the proper arm position. The Microlife requires the user to set the arm in the standard position but does not provide any guidance.

Some differences between the two are the Omron takes measurements from low to high while the Microlife usually takes three measurements and, like most other monitors, goes from high to low. The three measurements are meant to provide a more accurate averaged reading, but it does take over three times as long.

The low to high measurement is particularly convenient and beneficial. This means there is no delay waiting to inflate the cuff and then waiting for the cuff to deflate while listening to the blood flow sounds/tapping. For people with elevated blood pressure, this also means no need to have the monitor inflate, waiting for sound, and then re-inflating above the original pressure.

The Microlife is more sophisticated, has built-in charts, and comes with software and an interface for connecting to the computer. The charts show trends and display much more information than the Omron. For some people, this and the three reading averaging may be more useful, but I prefer the simpler and faster Omron.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fast, Convenient, Portable, February 3, 2011

This review is from: Omron Bp652 7 Series Blood Pressure Wrist Unit (Health and Beauty)

(What's this?)

The Omron wrist blood pressure unit is exactly what I wished it to be: easy to use, convenient, and most of all, quite portable.

Taking a reading is extremely simple and the built-in guidance system leads to no-fail accurate readings. You put the unit on your wrist, orienting it as shown in the directions (and a little picture on the unit itself). An orange light comes on; you fold your arm across your chest, and when the correct position is reached, a blue light comes on and the unit begins its operation. It is perhaps twice as fast as the discount-store arm unit that we have, and of course so much smaller and lighter. While I didn't benchmark exact readings, the wrist unit and the arm unit generally agree within a few points; since blood pressures vary all the time, I deem the accuracy good, certainly good enough to tell you at once if your blood pressure is too high or perhaps too low.

Unlike the arm unit, the wrist unit stores up to 100 readings for each of two people. The only lack here is that the readings, as far as I can tell, can't be downloaded to a computer for review and storage. Also, setting the time and date is easy enough but requires removal of the battery cover; I judge this a minor inconvenience as it's something you won't need to do very often.

All of this is great, but even better is that the unit slips virtually unnoticed (in size and weight) in a briefcase or purse, and you can take a reading just about anywhere and everywhere. A lot of care obviously went into the design.

This product is easy to recommend. If you already have an arm unit, it's a great supplement but if you've yet to buy your first unit, this is the only one you should ever need.
