Omron M10-IT Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor with Dual-User Facility and Dual-Size Cuff

Keeping an eye on how you heart behaves is not necessarily done at the hospital, thanks to the home blood pressure monitor. As the name says, this device is used to monitor blood pressure without a medic needed to attend it. The blood pressure monitors’ market is large and continuously expanding, and the renowned leader for this segment is Omron.

The Sphygmomanometers manufactured by this company are universally acclaimed as accurate, sturdy and cost-efficient. The best example of this is the M10-IT. Just like the medical units, you put the cuff on the upper arm, wait a bit, and that is everything. All that is left to do is check the monitor to see how your blood pressure is doing.

The M10 is very adept at providing its user with fast and accurate readings. Also, thanks to the large display, seeing the actual result is very easy. Plus, this blood pressure monitor has a few extra features that make it even more useful.

Just like its cousins’ (M2, M3, M6 or M7), the cuff is highly adaptable, being able to accommodate both large and slim arms (22-42 cm circumference). Also, they all share the Intellisense technology that makes Omron monitors so good.

The M10 is able to store up to 84 readings per user. That’s right: this unit can be used for making reading on 2 persons, as it keeps track of the separate readings. Also, it can be used to take your blood pressure at 3 different times over the course of a set interval and deliver the average. Perhaps the most important feature this Omron blood pressure monitor has is the ability to upload your reading to your PC.

This represents something new to the M line of monitors. And it is also extremely useful, as, this way, you can create a chart using the values recorded in the morning, evening or in-between. This way you can have a comprehensive view on how fast or slow blood is running through your veins. Print the chart, and have a chat with the doctor if the readings show something is off.

The M10 is among the best monitors on the market, not to mention feature-rich, but Omron has other similar products as well. Two have already been mentioned. Besides them, another Omron blood pressure monitor is the R3 (in fact, the entire R line) which works by mounting it on your wrist.
