Talking Blood Pressure Monitors

 

 

A talking blood pressure monitor can be a great comfort for those who are losing their sight. Around half-a-dozen models are available, including units from two of the leading blood pressure monitor manufacturers, LifeSource and Lumiscope.

According to Amazon.com figures, the top-selling talking monitor in mid-2007 was the LifeSource UA-767T Talking Auto Inflate Blood Pressure Monitor (picture).

About this, the LifeSource website said:

LifeSource adds the convenience of an audio announcement of measurement results to the popular One Step Auto-Inflation monitor. The cuff is automatically inflated at the touch of a button. When the measurement is complete, blood pressure and pulse are clearly heard as they are displayed, offering independent monitoring to those who prefer audio results in addition to digitally displayed results. The unit shuts off automatically after four announcements of the measurement or may be stopped at any time by pressing the start button. A jack for headphones (not included) enhances privacy and convenience.

The 16mm digital display makes this monitor easy to read and offers a unique simultaneous readout of systolic and diastolic pressure, and pulse. This monitor is available in a medium cuff size (large and small cuffs are available separately). A large print instruction guide and quick start card are clearly written in English, French and Spanish. A special audio manual is available from LifeSource upon request.


Another top-selling talking unit was the Lumiscope 1145 Talking Wrist Style Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor. According to a product description:

Talking feature clearly announces measurements. One touch operation with Auto Pressure Release. Dual memory zones with 60 readings each zone. Time and date stamp. Compares readings to World Health Organization standards. Jumbo digital display.
 
Another talking unit from a reputable manufacturer is the Oregon Scientific Talking Blood Pressure Monitor BPW810. According to the company website:

This innovative talking blood pressure monitor helps two users keep their blood pressure in check. It also reads mean arterial pressure as well as pulse rate. Each user receives 60 memory worth of readings plus date and time stamp.
