ADC 703-11AOR Diagnostix 703 Palm Aneroid Blood Pressure Monitor with Nylon Cuff - Adult Size, Orange - Perfect for Home Use, Travel & Medical Professionals

Easy to use with one hand unlike other blood pressure cups. Also, much easier to read guage. Definitely recommend buying this item.I take blood pressures on a daily basis in my job. My company provides cuffs but they are low quaility and awkward to use.I owned a cuff similar to this one a few years ago and used it until it wore out. I decided to make life a touch easier and purchased this one.It seems to be accurate. The two features that are most important are that you use a trigger and don't have to twist anything. The other feature, and the best, is that you can hold the dial wherever you need to since it's in your hand and not clipped to the cuff. For example, if you are having a hard time seeing the dial due to glare from a light, you can tilt it and eliminate the problem. That works if you're having trouble with your bifocals, too!I expect to use this cuff until I wear it out and then buy another one just like it.I got one of these to use in my office. I prefer this style of sphygmomanometer because I can hold the pt's arm and my stethoscope in place with one hand while I pump the cuff with the other. I feel like you have to be an octopus to manage all the parts of the traditional sphygmomanometer and keep the pt's arm at heart-level.I use this daily in Home Health. I love it. Makes a big difference being able to hold it in your hand!Love that this updated BP cuff has positive lock on the cuff!I really like this bp cuff. The trigger system is easy to use and you can easily control how fast or slow the cuff deflates even at higher pressures. The cuff itself is made a of a plasticy type material which some people don't like but I prefer because it makes it easier to wipe/clean. The gauge does have a luminescent dial and markings/numbers but you have to intentionally put it up to a light for like 30 seconds to get it to glow in the dark afterwards. The connector piece which connects the gauge to the cuff tube is plastic and looks like it could be a point of failure and also uses a tiny o-ring to make a seal. The part is called the 804CN plastic luer connector which you can see here, click on model options, 71[...]). It is possible to buy replacement ones from random online dealers, which I plan to do just so I have a few extra just in case. I've also seen one or two reviews where the company sent replacement ones for free. The gauge is plastic on the outside but doesn't feel that cheap, however, I wouldn't trust this thing to survive a few drops. Overall I think it's a great cuff, it does the job well and makes bp's much easier to take, just treat it gently. I will update this review after using it for a few months. Honestly for me, I'm using this one until I can afford something like the Heine Gamma GP.The only significant negative comment I saw in the reviews was about the hose connector being plastic, but it looks like the product is now updated with a chrome, knurled, spring-loaded quick-release coupler that is all metal on the gauge side and the hose side. The hose pops in easily, and pops off just as easily by pulling on the collar. The trigger is a LOT easier to modulate than the two traditional bulb valves I've used. Perhaps this is less important for a professional, but for an amateur like me taking a reading from someone with very "quiet" arteries, better equipment made all the difference between a white-knuckle experience for both the "doctor" and the patient, and an easy, quick, and comfortable one-time reading. Also helped immensely to ditch my cheap stethoscope (that works fine for "normal" patients and pros) for a good one.Bought as a gift for sister who's a doc. She's also left-handed and many one-handed sphygmo....that I looked at did not seem to be easily used with either hand. She tried it out and was very happy with how easy it was to use. She particularly liked that you can slowly release the pressure with the button or release all at once. Don't know about accuracy yet, only used a handful of times.Me ha gustado la calidad y la estética. Es difícil ponerse el manguito uno mismo y medirse la tensión arterialGood quality, and easy to use.Cheap connector
