OMRON BP MONITOR 1s

With all OMRON blood pressure monitors, the recommended time between calibration depends on the use of the product. If the monitor is being used in a home or personal environment, we recommend they are re-calibrated every 2 years.

To get an accurate reading when taking your blood pressure with a wrist monitor, your arm and wrist must be at heart level. Even then, blood pressure measurements taken at the wrist are usually higher and less accurate than those taken at your upper arm.

Some of the main differences between the Omron 5 series and the Omron 10 series are as follows: Omron 10 stores more readings since it can be connected to a smart phone. Omron 10 provides multi-colored indicator lights that clearly shows difference when readings are being compared.

All of our blood pressure monitors are FDA cleared as medical devices for personal use at home.”

Omron 7 Series Wireless Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor Most blood pressure monitors—both in the doctors office and at home—cuff your upper arm, and for good reason. The American Heart Association specifically recommends upper arm measurements, because thats the most accurate way to take a measurement.

There are few minor differences between the two model. BP742 have a memory of 60 whereas Bp742N have 100. The BP742N had BP Level Indicator, which is missing in the older version. BP742N default cuff size is from 9” to 17”.

After showing your blood pressure, the cuff will deflate on its own. With most machines, you must wait for 2 to 3 minutes before using it again. A digital blood pressure monitor will not be as accurate if your body is moving when you are using it. Also, an irregular heart rate will make the reading less accurate.

All Omron blood pressure monitors are clinically proven accurate. They are clinically validated to be within the following: Blood pressure: within +/- 3 mgHg or 2 percent.

Blood pressure monitors we recommend Best of the best: Omron 10 Series Wireless Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor Our take: An outstanding blood pressure monitor that offers a wide range of features and excellent accuracy at an attractive price point.

Overall, we recommend the Omron Platinum more for its accurate readings than its mobile app. If you want a cheaper unit from Omron, check out the Omron Silver (about $50), one of the highest-rated blood pressure monitors on the market.

The previous guidelines set the threshold at 140/90 mm Hg for people younger than age 65 and 150/80 mm Hg for those ages 65 and older. This means 70% to 79% of men ages 55 and older are now classified as having hypertension. That includes many men whose blood pressure had previously been considered healthy.

5.0 out of 5 starsVery accurate reading -- easy to use! I have had my Omron monitor for two years now and have found it to be very accurate and easy to use. I have a large upper arm but have no problems fitting the cuff on myself and taking my pressure.
