Blood pressure measuring devices

Blood pressure monitors are indispensable tools for monitoring an important vital parameter – blood pressure. At Altruan, you will find a wide selection of high-quality blood pressure monitors that offer you precise measurement and easy handling. Our blood pressure monitors measure in the unit mmHg (millimeters of mercury) and help you keep track of your health. A normal blood pressure is 120/80 mmHg, but deviations can indicate health problems. A blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg or higher is defined as hypertension and should be monitored.

Why having your own blood pressure monitor is indispensable

1. Early warning system for hypertension (≥ 140/90 mmHg)
2. Medication control
3. Independence from doctor's appointments
4. Storage of values for doctor consultations

Note: Take a five-minute break before each measurement and ideally perform the measurements at the same time of day to achieve consistent and comparable results.

This is how a digital blood pressure monitor works

1. Put on the cuff – tight but not constricting.
2. The device pumps air, creating pressure on the arm.
3. When releasing, the sensor measures systolic and diastolic values.
4. The display shows the result.

Measurement checklist for accurate results

• Stay still for five minutes, keeping your legs straight and not crossed.
• Avoid caffeine, nicotine, and physical activity 30 minutes beforehand.
• Place the arm on the table so that it is at heart level.
• Avoid speaking during the measurement.
• Conduct a second measurement after 1–2 minutes and note the average.
