Product Description

Product Description
This innovative talking blood pressure monitor helps two users keep their blood pressure in check. It also reads mean arterial pressure as well as pulse rate. Each user receives 60 memory worth of readings plus date and time stamp. The BPW810 features voice announcement and playback of blood pressure measurements for added convenience and has been designed to provide you with many years of reliable service. Readings are equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using the cuff and stethoscope auscultation method. This product uses the Oscillometric Measuring method to detect your blood pressure. Before every measurement, the unit establishes a "zero pressure" equivalent to the air pressure. Then it starts inflating the wrist cuff to 180mmHg or higher until it senses that it has blocked your blood in the artery. After that, the deflation process starts, during which time the unit detects pressure oscillations generated by beat-to-beat pulsatile, which is used to determine the systolic, mean and diastolic pressure, and also your pulse rate.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Price - High Qaulity-Mental Peace, July 31, 2008

By	L. Robillard "Merlinda" (Norman, OK USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After weeks of extensive online shopping, I selected this unit for my next door neighbor, who has macular degeneration. I am legally blind, but less sight impaired than she is. The unit is well made, easy to use by yourself, fully audial instructive, easy to read, has a pleasant, easy to understand, informative and comprehensive audial program. We have both taken it to our doctors, taking our BP before the nurse has taken BP with an arm cuff, and after. The readings are just a tiny bit higher via the wrist, but not alarmingly so. All nurses we have consulted say this is normal for wrist BP. My neighbor has high BP history, and monitorsw regularly. I have only recently had any elevations and I use her unit often. I highly recommend this for anyone, especially sight impaired people. The price is low. The mental pease is high. By the way, I used free delivery and it came in 2 days! Amazon did it again, as always.

My 14 yr. old daughter needed any easy-to-use blood pressure machine for her Science Fair project. She has no complaints and so far, it is has been very accurate. Good price, too!
