Press START and it takes your systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse as the cuff inflates, then shows them on a jumbo screen. Two people can share it, since each keeps their own memory of 60 readings, and a colored light tells you when your wrist is at the right height. It fits wrists 5.3 to 8.5 in (13.5 to 21.5 cm) around and runs on 2 AAA batteries. Sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features and Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJumbo, extra-large LCD screen shows systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse together, with the date and time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrect Position Guidance: a blue light means the cuff is level with your heart, orange means too high or too low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo separate users, with the last 60 readings saved for each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAverages of all your readings, your morning readings and your evening readings, a quick summary to share with your doctor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIrregular heartbeat indicator appears with your reading if the monitor detects an irregular rhythm during the measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix-level bar places each reading on the World Health Organization (WHO) blood pressure classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClinically tested to ISO 81060-2:2013, with accuracy of ±3 mmHg for pressure and ±5% for pulse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbout 180 measurements from a set of AAA alkaline batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra-slim design: 2.2 in x 3.5 in x 0.7 in (5.6 cm x 8.8 cm x 1.8 cm), 3.7 oz (104 g) without batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Your Blood Pressure Numbers Mean\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlood pressure is the force of your blood pushing against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps. A reading is two numbers, written one over the other, such as 120\/80 mmHg. The top number is your systolic pressure, taken as your heart pumps, when the pressure is highest. The bottom number is your diastolic pressure, taken as your heart fills, when the pressure is lowest. This monitor also gives your pulse in beats per minute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Check Your Blood Pressure at Home\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost people with high blood pressure have no signs or symptoms, so many do not know they have it, and it raises the risk of heart disease and stroke. Blood pressure also changes throughout the day, so one reading at an office visit shows only one moment. Regular readings at home, alongside your checkups, give you and your doctor a fuller picture. With dated readings and morning and evening averages, you have the numbers in hand at your next appointment. Your doctor can tell you what they mean for you and whether anything should change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIs a Wrist BPM Right for You?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn upper-arm cuff is the type most often recommended for home use. A wrist monitor can be the better fit when an upper-arm cuff is hard to use, such as on very large arms. Position is what makes or breaks a wrist reading, because a wrist held away from heart level can read falsely high, and that is the job of the blue and orange guidance light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a steady reading, relax for five to ten minutes first. Sit with your back straight, feet flat and legs uncrossed, rest your elbow on a table, and stay still and quiet. Try to measure at about the same time each day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis monitor is intended for adults. Do not use it during pregnancy or on a wrist with an unhealed wound. If you have had a mastectomy or have a severe circulation problem in your arm, ask your doctor first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"A\u0026D Medical","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32300119687281,"sku":"AEUB543","price":62.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0070\/7723\/2695\/products\/a-d-medical-wrist-digital-blood-pressure-monitor-jumbo-screen.jpg?v=1793298483","url":"https:\/\/medicinalsupplies.com\/products\/a-d-medical-wrist-digital-blood-pressure-monitor","provider":"Medicinal Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
