Is this bp monitor professionally calibrated. Comes with a calibration sticker?

I don't think so. The cuff was not accurate and medical personnel (nurses and doctors) advisead against it for an accurate reading. They recommended an arm cuff - which I have and I have tested against the blood pressure machine at my medical clinic and it is within one degree accuracy.

I have had no BP reading problems. When I purchased the unit my doctor asked me to bring it in on my next visit so she could check the calibration, it was fine. Now I bring in once a year for a reading calibration check and back up battery change. My Dr's like that I bring a summery chart of my daily Bp's to my visits. Because of this extra information my Bp issues were brought under control.

It comes with maybe a ketchup packet worth of calibration solution which will calibrate initially. You can go about a month without calibrating. It falls off a point or 2 by then.

There's the ability to forward the BP measurement information via email to friends, family and doctors so I assume that once it's been sent an email you can print - it however I haven't tested this functionality yet. At the very least when you bring up the BP readings on your screen you can do a screen capture and then print that screen capture.

You send it back to the manufacturer. It has a life time warranty. But I like mine so much and find it to be very accurate when compared to "regular cuffs" and stethoscope that I fully trust it. Just make sure you have the correct sized cuff for your arm! I have two sized cuffs--large for me and medium for other folks. I really doubt that recalibration would be needed for this monitor.

No, I can't provide certification. Check with the manufacturer--maybe he will.It has been consistently accurate when compared to my doctor's scales, that's all I can say for it. One thing is certain---if your weight changes constantly, it won't matter if your Healthometer is accurate or not. You're doing something wrong!

It does not appear to be, I never noticed when I bought it but after seeing this question I took it off the wall and looked. The only sticker on the device is a quality control / batch number sticker. I am currently looking for a similiar product that is labeled and listed.

Hi Jim, no it does not, as it comes calibrated. We can ship one out tomorrow if you decide you need one of these. Thanks, Ron

No, but it shows all the numbers very clearly as shown. This is the best product which I am using. If you have money you can try what ever you want to buy with high technology like showing heart rate etc but if you don't have money like me and if you want some decent product you should buy this.

no, but you have to touch it all the time in order to work. Sometimes it does´t read the HR. It´s an ok HR monitor, but not the best by far.

the monitor comes calibrated out of the box, it is actually quite good. but im sure you could use x-rite, but i have never used it to calibrate any screen. so i dont know forsure but calibration out of box is very good, it even comes with a calibration chart in the box

I hope you have not bought it yet. Wether it comes with a guarantee or not, its the most useless Wrist Blood pressure monitor you can ever buy. Mine stopped working two months after purchase and I seldomly used it. I didnt care to followup on the warrantly since it was so pissed off.

I, too, was curious if the ones being sold at the local stores were the "N3" model -- even though the boxes give the part number as "HEM-780". However, the back of the box shows that they have "TruRead Mode". I decided to purchase the one at Walmart (7-27-2008). The back of the control unit says it's an HEM-780N3. So far the unit is working well, and the readings seem to jibe with an older HealthCheck blood pressure monitor.

Kristina, Not certain of approved or not but it is an excellent blood pressure monitor. So far it matches with my doctors results exactly. Hope this helps you.

I am not sure but I just bought a life source monitor at the the drug store and I consistently get accurate readings on the first try. Once again, I think the sensors in this machine do not work very well. Money not well spent.

You could if you have used the standard cuff & scope before. You have to listen via scope to get an acuurate reading of your blood pressure. There are accurate digital machines, check w your doctor.

Of course. Push the blue button before you start taking your BP, and it opens a screen where you read the BP and the pulse. You can keep it always open if you want to do so.
