Suitable for adults who need to monitor blood pressure at home, including older adults and people with reduced mobility who may find home monitoring more convenient.

Store clean and dry.

Use the correct cuff size and follow the supplied instruction manual. Home blood pressure readings do not replace professional diagnosis. Do not change prescribed treatment solely on the basis of a home reading; seek medical advice about repeatedly high, low or irregular results or if you have symptoms that concern you.
