20 best blood pressure monitors

Practicality is rarely a feature of classic blood pressure monitors. These devices are bulky, take a long time to unpack, and just as inconvenient to put back into your purse. The CS Medica CS 105 tonometer changes the classic idea of ​​technology. This is a very compact device that can hardly be called a classic. The characteristics of the tonometer are excellent - a phonendoscope built into the cuff with soft ear pads, a pressure gauge in a metal case with well-read numbers, a minimum error. The small cuff is suitable for measuring blood pressure in thin people and children. But among the reviews there are often complaints about not the best workmanship. Over time, the rubber tubes shrink, crack, and the cuff noticeably weakens.

The main advantage of this model is the universal cuff size. It is equally well suited for people with small and large shoulder circumference. It is also worth highlighting the presence of a metal stethoscope in the kit, a comfortable pear, accuracy. Users like that the cuff is equipped with high-quality Velcro, thanks to which it is securely and comfortably fixed, and there is no discomfort during pressure measurement. When comparing the measurement results with other, obviously accurate instruments, the tonometer gives a minimum measurement error. Also, the stethoscope can be fixed in the ring on the cuff and comfortably measure the pressure yourself. The device is made of high quality materials and comes with a convenient storage case.

Before us is a bright representative of the classic tonometers. Low price and practicality are its two trump cards. There are two versions of the tonometer: with a built-in stethoscope head (LD-71 A) and with a removable one (LD-71). The first modification will be convenient for people who independently measure pressure.The cuff width of the device is standard, the error is minimal, within acceptable limits. In the category of mechanical models, this is the lightest device - only 328 grams. The tonometer also has other features - a reliable seamless camera is hidden in a soft nylon cuff, compactness, and a convenient vinyl case included. Among the shortcomings, users mainly name the unsuccessful arms of the phonendoscope, they put too much pressure on the ears.

The Japanese company AND inspires confidence in customers, as it produces really high-quality medical equipment. This model of a mechanical tonometer is especially popular among users due to its successful design, accuracy and convenience. The built-in phonendoscope simplifies the process of self-measurement of pressure. And in general, the device is perfectly made - a soft pear that facilitates air injection, large numbers on the pressure gauge, flexible tubes, a thin but strong cuff.The temples on the phonendoscope are tight, but they develop over time, they stop pressing so hard on the ears. So the only serious drawback is the small size of the cuff, which is not suitable for a full arm.

Tonometer Microlife BP N1 Basic is a fairly compact but accurate device. It complies with the requirements of the EU Medical Equipment Directive. Although Microlife is located in Switzerland, the manufacturing facilities are located in China. The tonometer is equipped with a memory for 30 measurements, can give accurate readings in case of arrhythmia, and also count the pulse. The presence of the WHO scale shows deviations from accepted pressure standards. A good option for the home - it is more convenient than mechanical models and cheaper than fully automatic devices. It is quite light, runs on two regular AAA batteries. But older people are better off choosing another option - because of the small display, the numbers on it are small.

If you need a good and inexpensive option, you should consider a B.Well tonometer. Compared to other common models, it is cheaper, and therefore is more popular with buyers.In addition, it is attracted by its compact size, the presence of a WHO scale and an arrhythmia indicator. The cuff has an anatomical shape for the most snug fit to the arm. True, its size is small, which makes measuring pressure for large people difficult or even impossible. The lack of logging is also somewhat frustrating, the tonometer remembers only the last measurement. But on the other hand, complaints about incorrect indicators are quite rare, which characterizes the B.Well PRO-30 as an accurate and reliable device.

The device is compact but functional. Omron M1 can count the pulse, up to 30 records are stored in its memory. Such a tonometer is suitable for people with arrhythmia, because it takes into account errors in the heart rate when calculating.One of the features of the tonometer is high autonomy. Up to 1500 pressure measurements can be taken from one set of batteries. The kit comes with a cuff of a standard size, but it is interchangeable, if necessary, you can purchase an option for a thinner or fuller arm. Another feature is its conical shape, which provides a tighter fit during pressure measurements. Minus - sometimes the device can give an error. For example, when the battery level is low.

The model of the Japanese UA-705 blood pressure monitor turned out to be both simple and at the same time reliable. The manufacturer produces the device in two versions - with a standard and enlarged cuff.

Ease of use is the key parameter in which this tonometer wins. Easy operation, quick start and reasonable price make AND UB-202 an everyday life improvement device. The tonometer uses Intellitronics technology. Each person has individual indicators, and it makes no sense to increase the pressure in the cuff to the maximum before each measurement. Intellitronics technology gives the device the ability to analyze the current pressure, and pump air only up to a key indicator. At the same time, the indicators are obtained quite accurate for this type of device thanks to the technology for calculating the average value based on several measurements. Well, a nice bonus - the manufacturer gives a 10-year warranty.
