The monitor is compact and easy-to-use at home, at work, and
during travel. Perfect for people who frequently monitor their
own blood pressure.
Omron digital blood pressure monitors use the oscillometric method
of blood pressure measurement. This means the monitor detects your
blood’s movement through your brachial artery and converts the
movements into a digital reading. An oscillometric monitor does
not need a stethoscope so the monitor is simple to use.
Clinical research has proven a direct relationship between blood
pressure in the wrist and blood pressure in the arm. Changes in
wrist blood pressure reflect changes in arm blood pressure
because the arteries in the wrist and the arm are close to each
other. Frequently measuring the blood pressure in your wrist
will provide your physician with an accurate indication of
changes in your blood pressure.
The Omron HEM-609 Portable Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor is
intended for home use.
