This review is from: Omron BP791IT 10+ Series Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor, Black/white, Large
The Omron Blood Pressure Monitor is really simple to use. My mom, a former nurse, has to help take my dad's blood pressure daily because he has hypertension. It's getting more difficult for her to take his blood pressure the old fashioned way (using a stethoscope and manual blood pressure cuff) because her vision and hearing isn't as good as it used to be. She was thrilled to get the Omron Blood Pressure Monitor - all she has to do is slide on the cuff and push one button. The Monitior is easy to use and displays the numbers fairly largely...the digits are about the size of most standard digital alarm clock digits (about 3/4 of an inch tall). When my dad's doctor paid a house visit, he verified that the reader was accurate.
One gripe about this unit is that the power cord and air cord are fairly short. This probably won't be an issue for most, but for those who are using this for someone who is bedridden/cannot move much, you may want to consider getting a short extension cord so that the base unit can sit closer to the patient using it. Outside of that, this reader is a gem. Highly recommended.
