A&D Medical Blood Pressure Monitors BIHS Approved UK Blood Pressure Machines UA-611

Bought this to replace a worn out well used older blood pressure machine.It does what it says on the packaging. Easy to use. Compact. Well constructed. Readings appear accurate. Good value for money.

I have been asked to take my blood pressure twice a day for a week. I had my Omicon nurses machine somewhere in the house, and it was removed from my medical bag. So I used the wrist BP machine and these are very inaccurate, it was so high.. I couldn't send those results in. So I went onto Amazon to purchase this one. This isn’t an Omicon machine, but had good reviews, so I thought I would try it.My readings have been similar now I have this new one, and seems much more accurate. The wrist bp machines are less accurate because of the placement on the wrist,The A & D machine I haven’t seen before nor used, even though I am a semi retired nurse/ care senior worker. Works virtually out of the box, so a very simple process.I like very much that it comes with four x AA batteries, easy to insert and put the back on..Unlike my wrist BP machine, this one doesn’t ask lots of questions like the date, time etc. This one once the batteries are in situ, is done, so easy. Now for those who are new on how to take your blood pressure correctly, please continue to read.I am left handed, my BP is always taken on that sideIf you have had an operation on an arm or shoulder, please use the other armEnsure the cuff fits you before starting the machine.Put the cuff on, once in place, ensure it is tight, but not too tight. You should be able to put two fingers inside the cuff.The grey connector or tube that runs from the cuff to the machine must lie on the inner part of your arm as straight as possible, ie like a straight line.It is best to sit on a chair with a backFeet on the ground, and no cross legsThe machine is better on a level stable surfaceA pillow can be put under the arm to keep everything level.After this, you should be ready, press the start button.You will need to keep still whilst the machine measures the three readings.To understand the three readings as follows…1. The first one, ie the top number, is your blood pressure when your heart beats.2. The second or middle one is your blood pressure when your heart relaxes3. The third is to measure how many times your heart beats each minute, so the pulse rate.To understand or to give your reading to a health professional, the highest number is always the systolic pressure and always given first, the middle number is what’s called diastolic. So the top number could be 120 systolic / 80 diastolic.I hope the information helps with using this machine.Currently this BP machine is an excellent price reduced from £37.99 to £19.79 so 48% off so a great buy.The battery life for the first four batteries is up to 7 hours, always best to keep some spare.This BP machine is clinically validated for accuracyThe cuff size 22 - 32 cmIn the box comes an information sheet + instructions + cuff + batteries + machine.I would have liked a safety bag with the machine to keep it nice and clean, otherwise I will need to buy one or keep in the box.This is a very good machine and just as accurate as others in this tier.Very happy with my purchase, delivery and price.⭐️Thank you to the seller⭐️I hope my review helps you

Fab little machine, read lots of reviews on this, the make was in the top 3 rated most accurate machines and the make was recommended by health care professionals. Small compact, love the little draw string bag it comes with. I bought a separate cuff as the one supplied wasn’t the right size for me. Only quarm would be that the batteries supplied didn’t last 2 weeks however, I was using it morning and evening to keep record of my readings for my GP. Would highly recommend!!

While I can't compare it to another blood pressure monitor, I believe it to be reasonably accurate. The monitor is relatively user-friendly with simple-to-read display measurements which do not take overly long to finish reading; within two minutes. The large cuff is quite nice, however it has once in a while pinched on my arm causing minor bruises. Having said that, it is well made and tightly secured so that there is no movement during the readings.Overall I would recommend this blood pressure monitor to others.

Actually rather surprised at how accurate this little machine is. Under £20 when I bought it and its brilliant. Cant really see the difference between this one and the one the doctor uses. 5 stars.

After a recent visit to my doctor, it was noted that my blood pressure was a bit high. It was the first time I’d ever had a higher than normal reading, so it was quite a shock. My doctor then said that I needed to have my blood pressure monitored for two weeks. This would have meant daily visits to my doctors surgery which isn’t that near to me. So I decided to buy one instead.Looking on Amazon, there are loads of options but I chose this one at a good price and it had a decent amount of reviews. It arrived the following day through Amazon Prime. It’s easy to set up - you just have to push the hose into the unit and you are ready to go once you have installed the included batteries.A press of the button and it starts reading. Now I read on some reviews that it doesn’t pump up too much.... it has to so that it can read your bp. Within about 30 seconds you have your reading as well as pulse rate. A good addition is that there is an indicator on the side to inform you your grading for high (note: not low) blood pressure.When I went back to my doctors, I took the machine with me and asked to compare to the machine my doctor had and found that this was very accurate. So I would recommend this to anyone looking for a decently priced home blood pressure monitor.

Keeps a check of my blood pressure. Easy to use, comfortable and quality item. Quiet to use and easy to read the figures. If you need to keep an eye on your blood pressure then get one of these.

This brand is what my DR uses and i always trust what they use , dont go bothering with cheap immitations when you can get this for 20 odd quid , its a purchase that will last years (hopefully) and be accurate and thats the main thing . Nice and neat and easy to use . Happy with it and can recommend
