Some cuffs inflate automatically while others require the user to use a pump to inflate the cuff manually, temporarily cutting off blood flow to the arm. The cuff then automatically deflates, allowing blood to flow around the artery in the arm once again. The vibration of this blood flow is detected by the monitor, prompting it to record the systolic blood pressure reading. As it deflates further and these vibrations stop, the monitor records a diastolic blood pressure reading. These blood pressure readings are displayed on the device’s screen. Depending on the device, a color indicator may appear to show how the reading compares with normal blood pressure readings.

Consider the way the monitor lays out information, where buttons are placed, how easy it is to place the cuff correctly on your arm and whether those details feel natural to you. Special Features
