Blood Pressure Monitors: Manage Your Blood Pressure at Home

Many seniors struggle with high blood pressure and need a blood pressure monitor to easily keep track of it at home. Sometimes the condition causes symptoms, while other times it does not. If you suspect high blood pressure or your doctor has advised you to monitor it, a blood pressure monitor can help you measure and manage it daily.

Some people get nervous when having their blood pressure taken at the doctor's, which can elevate the reading and give a misleading impression. With your own blood pressure monitor, you can sit comfortably at home, measuring your blood pressure in a calm setting whenever it suits you.

On this page, you'll find a variety of smart and user-friendly blood pressure monitors for checking if you have high blood pressure. We offer electronic blood pressure monitors that are incredibly easy to use in your daily routine. Additionally, we have a sleek wrist blood pressure monitor and a fully automatic one-size cuff monitor for upper arms.

What is Blood Pressure, and Why Should You Monitor It?

When measuring blood pressure, you're checking the force of blood against the walls of your blood vessels as your heart pumps it around. It's typically measured to determine how hard your heart is working and how flexible your blood vessels are.

Blood pressure readings include two numbers measuring diastolic and systolic pressures. The diastolic pressure reflects the maximum pressure as the heart contracts and pumps blood out. The systolic pressure, on the other hand, measures the lowest pressure when the heart relaxes between beats.

High blood pressure is detected when a monitor reads at 140/90 mmHg or higher. If your blood pressure is significantly above this level, you might experience symptoms like headaches, palpitations, or shortness of breath during physical activity, or even nosebleeds. Low blood pressure isn't tied to specific thresholds but may cause dizziness, blurred vision, or fainting.

It's crucial for a wide range of individuals to monitor their blood pressure. It is particularly wise to invest in a blood pressure monitor if you're in a high-risk group, such as being over 50, a smoker, or having a family tendency for cardiovascular diseases.

How to Use a Blood Pressure Device

To measure your blood pressure, wrap the inflatable fabric cuff around your upper arm and start your blood pressure monitor. The cuff inflates, compressing the artery, and as the air slowly releases, the device measures your blood pressure, displaying the value on the screen.

Our blood pressure devices feature a large display for easy reading of your values. Additionally, we offer the Seagull brand, known for its precision and high-quality measurements.

Buy a Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor

A wrist blood pressure monitor is an excellent choice for those who prefer not to wrap a cuff around their upper arm. This innovative device attaches to your wrist and reads your blood pressure and pulse just like arm-based monitors.

When using a wrist blood pressure monitor, it's crucial to keep your hand steady and aligned with your heart to ensure accurate readings. The product comes with detailed instructions to ensure you're using it correctly. However, the device's smart technology guarantees blood pressure measurements only occur when your hand is in the correct position, ensuring precise results.
