BEFORE TAKING A MEASUREMENT

To ensure a reliable reading follow these recommendations:

1.Avoid eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, exercising, and bathing for 30 minutes prior to taking a measurement. Rest for at least 15 minutes prior to taking the measurement.

2.Stress raises blood pressure. Avoid taking measurements during stressful times.

3.Measurements should be taken in a quiet place.

4.Remove tight-fitting clothing from your arm.

5.Sit on a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Rest your arm on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart.

6.Remain still and do not talk during the measurement.

7.Keep a record of your blood pressure and pulse readings for your physician. A single measurement may not provide an accurate indication of your true blood pressure. You need to take and record several readings over a period of time. Try to measure your blood pressure at about the same time each day for consistency.

BP785 specifications

The Omron BP785 is an advanced blood pressure monitor designed to provide accurate and reliable health measurements from the comfort of your own home. This device is specifically engineered to cater to individuals who are proactive about their health, aiding them in monitoring their blood pressure trends over time.

One of the main features of the Omron BP785 is its ability to display both systolic and diastolic blood pressure readings, along with pulse rate. With an easy-to-read LCD screen, users can quickly interpret their results, making it user-friendly for adults of all ages.

The BP785 utilizes advanced averaging technology to provide more accurate measurements. This feature takes multiple readings over a short period and calculates an average, reducing the impact of variability due to factors like stress or body position during measurement. This ensures that users receive a reliable reading every time they check their blood pressure.

Another significant characteristic of the Omron BP785 is the Smart Cuff Technology. The device comes with a wide-range cuff that fits comfortably on the arm, allowing for a secure fit for various arm sizes. This feature is crucial as improper cuff size can lead to inaccurate readings. The cuff is designed to inflate and deflate gradually, enhancing comfort and further ensuring precise measurements.

The BP785 also incorporates a unique feature called the “Body Movement Detection.” This technology alerts users if their position may be affecting the accuracy of the readings. Additionally, it can store up to 200 readings for two users, making it suitable for couples or family members monitoring their health together.

With a built-in hypertension indicator, the monitor visually indicates whether the readings are within a normal range, which can be particularly beneficial for those new to managing blood pressure. This device is powered by either an AC adapter or batteries, allowing for portability and convenience in various environments.

Overall, the Omron BP785 stands out due to its blend of technology, accuracy, and ease of use. It empowers users to take control of their cardiovascular health with confidence and assurance.
