Blood pressure monitors have come rapidly advanced in the last few years. Gone are the days of the pumped up arm cuff in doctors offices. Technologically based devices are not only perfect for doctor’s visits, but are also ideal for measuring your blood pressure at home. Since visiting the doctor elevates even the calmest person’s nerves, readings at your local clinic can be off due to a higher heart rate. The newest blood pressure devices are convenient and easy to use. The digital wrist blood pressure monitors are compact, can be used anywhere, and when used correctly, are the one of the best ways to monitor your health year round. All modern wrist blood pressure monitors come equipped with bright, easy to read digital displays. The display screen is attached directly to the wrist cuff, like a large digital watch, and can display a number of readings with a single touch. When looking at the screen, you will first notice the blood pressure reading. The systolic and diastolic numbers will be the two largest on the screen. The systolic number will always be located above or before the diastolic. Additionally, most digital screens also feature the patient’s heart rate. Since your heart rate can affect your blood pressure, it is good to know both when taking a reading. People with arrhythmia or heart conditions whose blood pressure varies with the symptoms of their disease can easily monitor both the blood pressure and heart rate in one simple step. Automatic inflation is a new feature on many of the latest models of wrist blood pressure monitors. The wrist cuff on the inflatable monitors will look and feel exactly like any other model. The cuff is Velcroed around the wrist, and when the ‘start’ button is pushed, air will inflate the device. Just like inflatable arm cuffs, the air inside the wrist cuff forms precisely around your arm, ensuring the highest and most accurate at-home reading possible. Many newer devices feature this function. For example, the Omron 7 Series models come with IntelliSense, an exclusive technology that allows for precision readings and inflates the monitor to individually fit each and every patient. These wrist blood pressure monitors are not only easy to use, but are also comfortable, fast and highly accurate. No adjustments or inputs are needed, the device will do it all for you. In addition to these features, most digital wrist blood pressure monitors also come equipped with a memory function that can store up to 100 readings that are accessible at the touch of a button. Most digital wrist blood pressure monitors can also average readings for comparison, come equipped with precision sensors to ensure that the monitor will pick up the exact blood pressure, provide protective cases perfect for traveling, and have up to 5 years warranty. If you are looking for clinical proven accuracy in the comfort of your own home or office, then automatic wrist blood pressure monitors are the perfect solution to all your hypertension and heart monitoring needs.
