What are the Benefits of Electronic Handheld Blood Pressure Devices?

Electronic hand-held blood pressure devices are a useful tool for managing high blood pressure at home. They make it easy for anyone to do so due to their many benefits.
  1. Easy to Read

    • Electronic hand-held blood pressure devices have a digital screen that makes reading results easier than reading smaller marks and numbers on a manual blood pressure cuff.

    No Skill Required

    • No special medical training is required to use a hand-held blood pressure device.

    Fast Results

    • Results are visible on an electric blood pressure monitor in a matter of seconds.

    Relatively Inexpensive

    • Hand-held blood pressure devices are less expensive than a stethoscope and sphygmomanometer.

    Easy Self-Measurement

    • It is much more difficult to measure one's own blood pressure using a cuff and stethoscope.

    White Coat Syndrome

    • Some people get nervous when a medical professional measures their blood pressure which gives an inaccurate reading. This white coat syndrome can be avoided by using an electronic monitor outside of a medical facility.
