blood pressure monitor

Since the pressure value measured by the wrist sphygmomanometer is the “pulse pressure value” of the wrist artery, it is suitable for most middle-aged and elderly people, especially those with high blood viscosity, poor microcirculation, and patients with vascular sclerosis. In the general population, there will be a large difference between the average values of multiple measurements using a wrist sphygmomanometer and an upper arm sphygmomanometer – a difference of more than ±1·3kPa (10mmHg) is very common. Therefore, for individuals who have purchased a wrist blood pressure monitor, it is recommended that it be used for personal monitoring – you can keep track of changes in your “blood pressure” at any time, but you must clearly point out that what it measures is not what is customarily said. “blood pressure value”, but “wrist pulse pressure value”.
