While I was being ‘processed’ in my local hospital for a trigger finger operation they took my blood pressure. I’d never had a problem before, always being ‘normal’.
The nurse immediately called a doctor who checked again and sent me to my GP who wrote a lifetime prescription for pills to control my blood pressure. The silent killer missed me. From that day on I’ve had one at home and check regularly.”
I researched and ended up doing a website to inform other people.
Knowledge is increasing fast about just how important managing their own health is. But too often that means expensive equipment used by private clinics. OMRON’s response has been to manufacture helpful devices for home-use such as their digital blood pressure monitors.

People in their own homes can now easily afford to acquire a blood pressure monitor to measure their own blood pressure. Blood pressure is an important indicator for health conditions. New monitors are now in the marketplace that not only tell you your blood pressure but will record the information on your computer. How good is that?
Lightweight units such as finger- and wrist-type monitors are extremely popular because of their portability. It becomes convenient to keep them in the office, car, home and can be taken on your vacation too.
Without being technical, something known as MEMS technology allows blood pressure monitors sometimes as tiny as your business card to now be available for you to buy. Not that it can be seen but these monitors incorporate the world’s smallest MEMS pressure sensor for measuring blood pressure. The pressure sensor is a system that detects the pressure of gaseous materials and liquids.
