The Amazon listing says "Omron BP629 3 Series Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor DEMO UNIT." What does DEMO UNIT mean?

My experience is unsatisfactory, the measurements are incorrect regarding measurements in medical centers. I'm glad that your experience is different from mine.

I'm not sure I know what "Demo Unit" means, either, but what I DO know is that the unit is light, easy to use, travels well, and is accurate! I Took it to my Doc, and compared readings - it was right on. In fact, was pretty amazed to see the Dr's assistant was using the very same unit! I did research before ordering, and reports indicated that Omron is accurate, and backs their product.

I don' know what a lap counter is, but I can tell you if you are looking for a something to tell time, a stop watch or alarm you might want to consider buying one of these. As for heart monitor, I personally think it's a real joke. By the time you get a reading from your heart your blood pressure is up. No kidding.

On the inside of the cuff it reads 9.5-13.25. I already took a blood pressure on a guy whose arm was about 14". The monitor is ready to use and comes with cuff, tubing and batteries.

According to the Manual of Instructions that came with the wrist blood pressure monitor it says that Irregular or Weak Heartbeat Detector is one of the Error Indications. It will detect irregular heartbeats while your blood pressure is being measured. If an irregular heartbeat is detected, an indicator icon will appear. When this happens, remove the monitor from your wrist and wait 2-3 minutes and then take another measurement. Repeat the same operation and if you get the irregular heartbeat symbol again consult with your medical professional."

I confirm using an old style, non digital Sphygmomanometer. That said, an exact comparison can never be made unless measurement made simultaneously - which isn't done. Even a reading with the Omron will differ when taken moments later. Consequently, accuracy is is considered OK when readings are consistently in the same range.

Hi, Ron. Admittedly, I didn't think to check for that when I purchased the product. I've never had to use a blood pressure monitor before, so I didn't know anything about BHS certification at the time. I did a little research for you and, although Ozeri has consistently good performance reviews on several different sites and also comes with a 5-year warranty, I can't find anything indicating validation through BHS or a similar organization. Ozeri does indicate the monitor meets standards set by the World Health Organization, but that, of course, isn't the same as having official testing done by them. If you want to ensure you purchase a monitor that's been certified by the BHS, you can find a list of brands and models on their official website here: http://www.bhsoc.org//index.php?cID=246. Hope that helps. Good luck!

I love mine. I've had it about three weeks. I position it on my left wrist with the digital screen facing me and top of the screen up on my thumb end. Be sure the monitor is directly on your pulse and then wrap the Velcro band as tight around your wrist as possible. Sit straight in a chair, raise your wrist slightly above your heart and press the button to start the monitor. It will get tighter around your wrist and remain still. In the end, you'll have your blood pressure reading and your resting heart rate.

Hi Kim... I did not buy this HRM as my first choice because I tried to "go cheap" and only wanted an HRM with no frills. First one ordered did not work, and the instruction leaflet (4 pages) was in "cryptic" English. SO... based on years of excellent service from an Omron BP Cuff device, I went to this device next. It is user friendly, AND it comes with a small DETAILED & well-written booklet (24 pages) of information that literally walks you through every feature of this device. I'm happy with this HRM and would buy the same brand again should anything happen while exercising that should accidentally break my HRM. Hope this helps.

From what I understand, you need a completely different unit to use on pediatric patients because the algorithm in the machine isn't calibrated for use on patients that young. I'm not certain, but I don't think Omron makes a digital unit that can be used on pediatric patients. I believe they make manual BP cuffs though.

We have the Omren 3 Series Model BP710. The box says it fits all Omron Automatic or Manual digital blood pressure monitors with D-ring cuff. It just plugged right into ours where the smaller cuff attached.

I don't know because I've never downloaded the data. However, I just checked the manual and it indicates one needs to load Omron's Health Management Software in order to download the data the device has captured. My unit came with the CD rom with this program on it and usb cables for connecting the blood pressure monitor to my PC. Hope this answers your question. Good luck.

If your old machine is an Omron, it probably is still accurate. That's an excellent brand. One way you can check your machine is to go to a local grocery store (or drug store) that has a blood pressure machine next to the pharmacy. They are verified to be accurate. Take your pressure using your machine in your car in the grocery store parking lot. Sit in your car a couple of minutes, then stroll into the store and take your pressure there. They should be relatively close in numbers.

I think all BP machines - even those used in a doctor's office - read high. I can't speak to accuracy, but readings on the Omron have been very consistent.

The answer is no. In fact, I returned the machine. One of the biggest problems I had was it's inaccuracy. I literally had to rush my father to the hospital on 3 occasions. The last being his BP was actually 187/121. The machine was way off. This is the 3rd Omron I have purchased for dad believing the more expensive the machine the better the product. I could not personally in good faith recommend an Omron product and in fact seeing dad's primary tomorrow for a recommendation of a machine OR better a prescription to secure a top notch machine.

I don't fully understand the question. However, the picture shown is the Microlife 3MC1-PC Ultimate Automatic Blood pressure Monitor. This monitor comes with a 5 year Warranty. If this is a new unopened box monitor the warranty maybe different. The monitor comes with 2 cuffs medium and large.2 Users can utilize this monitor to easily and accurately track blood pressure measurements. This monitor also detects irregular heartbeats. Hope this information is useful and helpful....

I have no idea. I stopped using my Omron over a year ago because it gave me readings in the HIGH BP range and my doctor's office BP machine put me in the LO NORMAL range. What would you do?
