Blood pressure monitor

Of Fredrik Lönnqvist - 25 October 2022

Does your doctor want you to check your blood pressure? Perhaps your family has a history of high blood pressure? Many people simply want to know how their blood pressure is doing - whatever the reason, we have blood pressure monitors for everyone. We have blood pressure monitors for those who only want to test a few times as well as for those who want more in-depth information. See our blood pressure monitor here

Measuring your blood pressure can be a good investment in your health. Many diseases can be avoided if blood pressure is kept under control. The risk of other serious conditions, such as stroke, can also be greatly reduced when blood pressure is monitored regularly. You can now measure your blood pressure easily and safely.

What is a blood pressure monitor?

A blood pressure monitor is a device used to measure blood pressure. Both digital and non-digital monitors are available. Ours are digital because they are generally considered easier to use for people without medical training. Our blood pressure monitors are intended for human use (for people, not for example dogs or cats), and all monitors are CE-approved.

How our blood pressure monitors work

Our digital monitors use oscillometric measurements and electronic calculations rather than auscultation. They may use manual or automatic inflation, but both types are electronic, easy to use without training and can be used in noisy environments. They measure systolic and diastolic pressure through oscillometric detection, using either deformable membranes measured by differential capacitance or differential piezoresistance, and they include a microprocessor. They accurately measure mean blood pressure and pulse, while systolic and diastolic pressures are obtained with somewhat lower accuracy.

Tips for measurement

  • Measure while seated
  • The cuff should sit about 2 cm above the bend of the elbow
  • You should be able to fit 2 fingers under the cuff
  • Rest for 10 minutes before measuring
  • Measure at different times
  • Always measure twice and record the average

Find the right test in 1 minute

We offer three types of tests - choose the one that suits you best.

Self-test: quick response at home directly.
Lab test - sampling at home: Take the sample yourself and send it to a lab for analysis.
Lab test - sampling clinic: sampling at a clinic or sampling site.

You will receive clear information about what the test shows, how it is used and what the next steps may be.
