With the SmartRead blood pressure monitor from Mabis, you can help your doctor track your blood pressure accurately in the comfort of your home and without stress-induced spikes. The Mabis monitor is designed for comfortable, easy use--just slip it on your wrist, secure the strap, and press the power button. The device inflates gently and within seconds displays systolic, diastolic, and pulse readings. To help you track blood pressure over time, the monitor stores up to 30 of the most recent readings and recalls them with the push of a button. Clean, comfortable, and easy to read, the SmartRead even comes with its own case for storage or travel. --Emily Bedard Customer Reviews: 28 of 31 found this review helpful: HAPPY CUSTOMER, 2004-03-15 I PURCHASED THE MABIS BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR, BECAUSE I WORK IN THE HEALTH FIELD, AND I ALSO HAVE A HEARING PROBLEM. I HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE AS ACCURATE AS THE STETHESCOPE, ALWAYS RIGHT IN LINE WITH IT. NOT ONLY DO I USE THIS MONITOR, BUT MY CO-WORKERS LIKE TO USE IT TOO. THANKS AMAZON FOR A GREAT PRICE ON THIS ITEM TOO!!!! 54 of 55 found this review helpful: Easy Monitoring, 2003-06-25 I found the product to be simple to use and easy to carry around - the case kept it well protected in my cavernous purse! I am a heavy woman and have trouble with standard issue BP cuffs because of my arm size. This device was comfortable to use. I was monitoring twice daily for two weeks to get a handle on the effect of a new medication. We also compared the device readings to the Dr office readings - almost perfect match every time we tested. I have confidence in the readings and am far more likely to monitor because it is so simple and easy to use. 107 of 115 found this review helpful: Inexpensive and simple....but, 2002-11-04 not that accurate. I think this is a great idea, and I bought one to have around the house. However, when I cross-checked it with my office cuffs, I found it's quite variable and therefore a risky venture for someone who really needs to chart their BPs carefully or monitor the effect of their new medications. In addition, accurate results require getting the cuff in the right spot (1/8 inch behind the 'crease' of the wrist) and elevating the wrist to the level of the chest by gently bending the elbow. This maneuver isn't as easy as it might seem, and once the cuff has been inflated once, the local blood vessels become spasmodic for 10 minutes or so, making an accurate 2nd reading impossible for that period of time. In addition, complete flexion of the elbow will yield higher BP numbers in most cases, so the whole approach here is suspect. If you want one of these because you cannot manage a traditional cuff, bring it to your doctor's office and see if the doctor or nurse can help you get it right.
