Omron Pressure Monitor
A healthy, adult, resting human being should possess a systolic pressure of 120 mmHg and a diastolic pressure of 80 mmHg. However, the blood pressure of an individual varies from heartbeat to heartbeat and also throughout the day. Stress, disease, drugs, nutritional reasons, etc. also cause the blood pressure to change drastically. Abnormally high arterial pressure is called as hypertension, while unusually low pressure is known as hypotension. Omron pressure monitors are digital hypertension indicators that record the blood pressure accurately.
Blood pressure is basically the force exerted on the walls of the blood vessels when blood circulates in our body. The blood pressure is generally measured in the larger arteries, the blood vessels that take the blood away from the heart. Hence, it is also called as arterial pressure. A device called sphygmomanometer was originally used to measure blood pressure using the height of a mercury column that indicated the pressure of blood circulation. Hence, the blood pressure values are always indicated in millimetres of mercury only (mmHg). Omron HEM blood pressure monitors are fully automatic blood pressure recording equipments.
Kidney disease, tumours, etc. are also causes for hypertension apart from the high blood pressure that is developed by individuals without any apparent medical reason. Chronic renal failures, heart failures, strokes, heart attacks, and arterial aneurysm are the serious results if high blood pressure is ignored. The life expectancy of a person can be drastically reduced by persisting blood pressure. Therefore, systematic check ups for presence of blood pressure should be done by everyone to avoid unnecessary risks in life. Omron HEM blood pressure monitors are the ideal companions since they are hand-held types that can be easily operated by anybody with much difficulty.
Omron HEM blood pressure monitors are quite affordable for an average family and they are also easily transportable. Omron HEM blood pressure monitors can display both systolic and diastolic pressures in a digital format. They can also indicate the pulse rate of a person. Thus, Omron HEM blood pressure monitors can be operated and understood even by persons without any medical experience, compared to the traditional mercury-column type blood pressure monitors that only trained medical personnel can read. They also come with a durable fan-shaped cuff and a 14-set memory for comparative reading. Omron HEM blood pressure monitors are the products of very high sophisticated technology and they are reputed for their reliability and durability.
