An overview of digital blood pressure meters
Unsure which blood pressure meter to choose from the many options available? The answer is simple: it depends on your needs and lifestyle. It is worth knowing the variety of options available before deciding which digital blood pressure meter to buy: from display size to ease-of-use, from simplicity when testing to size and portability, all the way to the connectivity of the device.
PRECISION AND MINIATURISATION
The technology behind arterial blood pressure meters has progressed significantly, allowing for the creation of compact, portable devices that do not compromise on accuracy. Ideal for people with an active lifestyle and for those who have to monitor their blood pressure continuously, these devices offer the practicality of a miniaturised format, while also guaranteeing reliable testing.
BLOOD PRESSURE METERS WITH CONNECTIVITY, A CAPTAIN'S LOG FOR THE HEART
Besides the large memory and the ability to promptly organise enormous quantities of testing data (while also providing averages and statistics), a blood pressure meter with connectivity allows you to access information about heart health from your smartphone and share them with your family if needed.
CHECK THE DISPLAY SIZE AND TYPE
If you have difficulty reading, the ideal blood pressure meter for you is certainly one with a sufficiently large backlit display that allows you to read the data easily, regardless of the amount of light in your surroundings.
BLOOD PRESSURE METERS THAT DETECT ARRHYTHMIA

BLOOD PRESSURE METERS WITH “TRAFFIC LIGHT” VISUALS
If you want to grasp your blood pressure data in the most immediate way possible, select a digital model that besides providing a numerical value also uses a colour-coding scheme similar the one used for traffic lights (System certified by the World Health Organization).
