Blood Pressure Cuff?

Wife needs to start checking her blood pressure on the regular. Looking for a monitor, but have no idea what kinds are any kind of good. Amazon, as good as the ratings are, virtually every one of them have reviews that say its junk and its the greatest thing ever.

Anybody have any insight?

TIA

Of course I can’t remember which one it was.

Might have been this one.

Stay away from the wrist cuffs. There is a reason they are not used by professionals.

The Omron line are the most reliable of the in-home cuffs.

We used one when the wife was pregnant with our daughter. I thought, hey I’ll check mine. ****. It’s high. Cool. I’ll just chill for a minute and try again. Still high. Shit. Maybe it’s a tough day. I monitored it for 3 weeks. Made the log, 3 times a day. Different times, you know, eliminating variables. Always high. So I made an appointment with my doc for blood pressure. Got it checked st the clinic and it was great.

I sure felt like an idiot and it was an expensive lesson that those aren’t accurate.

My work we use BP machines but they suck and sometimes we have to do manually but I hate doing those because background noise or patient moves around or hard to hear the beat.

This one probably works pretty well:



It's pricey though. $2,604.43

Aside: I wonder whats up with the $4.43. You'd think they could have sold it for an even $2600.

I take mine twice a day, pre- and post-dialysis. I use the Omrons.

Just take the one you get to the Dr's office with you and get comparison reading between theirs and yours. 120/80 may be 110/75 on yours but as long as the readings are repeatable you/the doctor can work with it.

I have a Omron I use at home and I bought a wrist cuff Walgreens brand while out of town to keep in truck or room. I have brought both into my Doctor to compare. They were both within +- 3 sys dia where he wasnt to concerned. He said most bad readings are from improper sized cuff or not on properly. This what he watched close fit and installation on arm.

Like my Dad I suffer from high blood pressure and have been on medication since my late 20s.

Shouldn't you care more about your cholesterol and tryglycerides than BP?
