Ok, I bought one of those home / automatic blood pressure testers a
while back and we all ''played' with it a couple of times when we
first got it. Not sure we ready understood or trusted the output. Are
such things generally reasonably reliable, at least in the
repeatability sense would you think?

Mine has a cuff around wrist, and requires arm to be held up so wrist is
about the same level as heart.


I've just dug ours out and it looks like it goes round the upper arm,
just above the elbow.

Measurement repeatability seems good, and
comparison with measurements made by GP is within about 10% -

I can't remember what the Doctor said mine were other than 'ok'.

these
measurements made within a few minutes of GP using conventional arm cuff
manometer.

Ok.

I suspect what most people are really interested in is any trend, rather
than the absolute values.

Well, I've just measured mine and it said 156 (SYS), 93 (DIA) and a
pulse of 67. I'll try it again in the morning and see how it compares.

Cheers, T i m
