 Monitor Your Blood Pressure at Home, Accurately, and Spot Problems Early.
O.K. I’ll admit to now caring what my blood pressure is. Before, it was just two numbers I didn’t understand. Now I know the top number measures “systolic” pressure, or the pressure exerted by the heart to push blood (and life-giving oxygen) out through your arteries. And the bottom number measures “diastolic”, or the pressure generated to fill the heart with blood. You want the top number to significantly exceed the bottom. And naturally, you’d like both to be lower, not higher. But too much stress, clogged arteries, poor diet, and high salt intake can all conspire to elevate blood pressure. So monitoring your blood pressure is a great way to gain a window into your general health. 
Hospital Accuracy — Our upper-arm monitor (the most accurate way to take a reading) is feature rich: one touch will detect hypertension and irregular heartbeat, results can be transmitted via USB to your physician, and it will store up to 84 readings (with date and time) for you and your spouse. Includes Health Management Software on CD-ROM for tracking your progress, large easy-to-read LCD display, and ultra-quiet electric motor. So slim and light you’ll keep it handy wherever you are. Includes standard cuff (9”-13”) and large cuff (13”-17”), 4 AAA’s, and black zippered carry case.
