Omron M2 Digital Automatic Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor - 1 Unit
Hypertension is a major, often silent contributor to stroke and cardiac complications across East Africa, yet it frequently goes undetected until an emergency occurs. The Omron M2 Digital Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor is a professional, clinically validated diagnostic device engineered for home use. With its Intellisense technology ensuring comfortable, controlled inflation without over-squeezing the arm, it empowers patients to track their cardiovascular health accurately, ensuring their blood pressure medications are working effectively.
How to Use / Operate
Sit quietly in a chair with your feet flat on the floor for 5 minutes. Wrap the cuff securely around your bare upper left arm, positioning it roughly an inch above the elbow crease. Rest your arm on a table so the cuff is at heart level. Press the start button, remain completely silent, and avoid moving until the cuff deflates and the reading appears on the screen.
