Facts About Blood Pressure


Your heart is your most important organ, and it's a good idea to know how well it's doing. With Omron home blood pressure monitors, you consistently get an accurate picture of your heart's health.


One in three adults suffer from high blood pressure in America. This condition can lead to heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure, and blindness. With the Omron 5 SERIES upper arm monitor, you can monitor your blood pressure at home, and with the help of your physician, take steps to decrease your risk of heart disease. A healthy heart combined with a healthy lifestyle will help increase your chances for a long, active life.


Chart

View this chart to learn more about what the numbers mean.

What the Numbers Mean
Understanding your readings is easy with the Omron 5 SERIES blood pressure monitor. The easy-to-read screen displays your readings in large font and labels each number with a tab along the side.

     Systolic Pressure is the top number on the display. It's the pressure created as your heart contracts to pump blood throughout the body.

     Diastolic Pressure is the bottom number on the display. It's the pressure between beats, when your heart relaxes.
These numbers combine to give you your blood pressure reading (systolic over diastolic pressure).

How to Monitor + Tips
Your blood pressure numbers often change. For instance, your blood pressure in the morning can be significantly different than at night, when you visit a doctor's office, or after exercising. By using an Omron blood pressure monitor at home, you're able to detect changes in your blood pressure any time you want.


Monitoring at Home is Easy
To ensure an accurate reading, do not measure your blood pressure within 30 minutes of:

  • Exercising
  • Eating
  • Smoking
  • Drinking Alcohol
  • Bathing
Place the blood pressure arm cuff on your left arm and sit quietly for approximately five minutes with both feet flat on the floor. Then, when you are ready to test, simply press the start button and the Omron monitor will do the rest.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super Easy to Use!, March 14, 2011

This review is from: Omron BP742 5 Series Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor, White, Medium (Health and Beauty)
Ever since my husband came home from the doc after being told to watch his blood pressure, we've been using this monitor. It's SUPER easy to use, it's fast, it's convenient and it's accurate. I took it with to the doctor and tested them side by side - both this machine and the doctor's came up with the EXACT same reading.

I love that it's so compact too. When it's not in use, I put it in the included bag and tuck it into the buffet in my dining room.

I'd recommend this cuff to anyone!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)
First off, this is a nice home blood pressure machine. While I would never mistake it for, nor compare it to the 2-3 thousand dollar Dinamap machines I use in professional practice - I do find this little Omron to be perfect for home usage. I was offered this product through Amazon's Vine program. Although I did not really need a blood pressure cuff I felt that my expertise may provide a useful review.

The B/P was accurate and it was done quickly. There is an arrhythmia warning indicator here and since I do not have one, I cannot venture to grade its efficiency but would comment that it is a nice addition. The cuff included is nice and has diagrams on it so you will know with minimum effort how it should be placed on your arm.

OK, so I know a lot of people here read the negative reviews in determining if they should purchase a model. I will put these pointers in bulletin form so they are easier to read:

1.0 out of 5 stars Opt for the 7 Series!, September 20, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Omron BP742 5 Series Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor, White, Medium (Health and Beauty)
I chose the Omron742 5 series due to some reviewers' difficulty in using the 7 series cuff. When it arrived, I found this monitor easy to use, but my blood pressure readings were all over the place, from normal to "Call the doctor" readings, all within minutes of each other. After a few days of wondering if I were in need of medication, I brought the monitor with me to my chiropractor appointment. My pressure was 18 points lower using her manual monitor. The monitor was easy to return, and Amazon paid the postage since the monitor was defective. I decided to replace it with an Omron 7 Series, since my chiropractor assured me that her mother had one, and the cuff was very easy to use. I bought it locally at Costco for only a few dollars more than the 5 Series. It was very easy to use the cuff, and the readings have been very accurate. I guess the moral of the story is to always bring new monitors to one's next medical appointment to check the accuracy.
