I have heard that while these may not be perfect for knowing your precise blood pressure, they are really good for getting to know if you are above or below your norm. As long as you use it in a consistent fashion is is supposed to provide consistent measurement.
i have been told by many health professionals that the wrist type blood pressure monitors are not very accurate. if you are in need of monitoring your blood pressure on a regulare basis, you’re much better off using an arm cuff type.
I should buy the La Crosse Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor to see what it would read at 1am when I’m eagerly awaiting the next woot! Woot may be harmful to my health!
Had a wrist blood pressure monitor – found that it wasn’t very accurate at all…too difficult to catch that “correct” arm angle. Get an “upper arm-cuff” type model instead.
