My husband was recently diagnosed with Graves’ Disease and one of the symptoms is it makes his heart race at very unhealthy levels. Sometimes while resting his heart rate can reach 130 beats per minute. As you can imagine this needs to be monitored regularly and we need to be very careful that it does not raise his blood pressure too much either.
We have been searching for awhile now to get one for us to use at home and I was so glad to finally find this wrist monitor on Amazon. Easy@Home Digital Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor with Heart Beat / Pulse Meter function was the perfect choice for us because it keeps a memory of 60 readings. This has allowed us to be able to take the monitor to the doctor with us and let her know exactly what his readings were.
We checked this monitor against the one the doctor uses and the measurements were very close. One of the features I loved was the Irregular Heartbeat Indicator, which alerts the user to the problem. I found this to be very helpful and much easier than trying to check it manually.
The numbers on the monitor are large with a Backlit LCD that shows both the systolic, diastolic as well as the pulse rate on one screen. You also can get an average of the last three readings.
All of this comes with a case and batteries are included. It is the perfect solution for us to have here at home and it is easy to pack when we travel. If you are looking for one this is available on Amazon.
