I loved the way you explained how it measures everything especially as I was curious how it gets our pulse info back. Very well done video ❤ Omron must pay you for this, more info than their user guide 😊
For personal use I would recommend an automatic machine. You may take advice from your physician or cardiologist as well regarding the same. Automatic because it's quicker, convenient to handle and measure, easy to carry. Even most doctors cabin has an automatic one these days. Once my mother got hypertension headache and fainting, I rushed her to hospital, the values shown in BP monitors of emergency Room were almost near to the values shown on my automatic BP monitor. However all automatic monitors aren't same, some may give false readings too. Do a thorough research before buying.
For home BP monitoring, automated bp monitors are convenient and accurate enough. Medical professionals use manual BP Monitor which requires the knowledge of technique to obtain accurate reading
Hello, I have one from another brand, which does not finish the pressure measurement, I checked the hoses and found no leaks. What component could cause this failure?
I'm not sure, ma friend. It can be many reasons like worn out air pump, like there may be any cracks developed in thr valves of pump that it's unable to develop same pressure as in new condition. Or could be failure of the pressure sensing element, or may be something wrong with the logic board.
You said that it will tighten to 20 MMHg above our blood pressure? How does it know before the reading? Does that mean, for example, if my home, blood pressure machine tightens to 150, my systolic will always be 130?
From my limited knowledge on BP monitors ,the values shown in your monitor are actual ones, you may have noticed the highest value(live readings) shown on the display during measurement process would've been larger than the final value of your BP at the end of process. How it knows before the reading...i think it's during the measurement process when pulse signals become weaker, the sensor senses it. Your BP machine will show your actual BP at the end of measurement process. Hope that helps ❤️
You should not repair or replace the parts, as doing so may damage the sensitive circuitry or its calibration. Aftermarket air pumps may not be as good as the manufacturer's orginals. Contact their helpline if you're facing any issues. Generally the air pump lasts 5 years or more, based on usage frequency and environmental factors like moisture and dust may shorten its lifespan
I haven't heard such an issue before, friend. May be the BP monitor you have, has some manufacturing defect or requires a service from an authorised service centre
The pneumatic (air) circuit of an automated BP monitor is Normally Open(N/O) which means it can't keep air inside unless energized. Once energized, normally open valve closes and air inflates the cuff. Coming to your question "how the air return to the pump?". After taking measurements power supply to the pump and valve de energized, so N/O valve opens and air naturally goes back to atmosphere. Its a safety feature as well, in the event of battery drain or circuit failure, blood circulation of a person should not be stopped. Whatever goes wrong with the BP monitor, cuff will naturally deflate
A million such videos exist with random woof woof gyan by influencers - none explained the concept as clearly! Now I understand why my mother hates them as well :)
