Amazon.com Product Description
Wrist blood pressure monitors are portable, accurate and simple to use. They provide a convenient choice for those who want a second unit for away from home or who have trouble placing a cuff on their arm. The Omron HEM-650 Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor with APS (Advanced Positioning Sensor) uses Omron's patented IntelliSense technology, which inflates the wrist cuff to the ideal level with each use and offers fast, personalized, and automatic inflation for maximum comfort. No adjustments are required to select an inflation level--especially convenient for hypertensive users and for people with certain arrhythmia or heart disorders, because their blood pressure is more likely to fluctuate. And with the HEM-650's 90-memory recall with date and time stamp, as well as averaging capabilities for the last three readings, you can track your blood pressure and pulse progress as your work towards a healthier lifestyle. The HEM-650 also features a system that detects an irregular heartbeat, giving you an even better understanding of your heart's health. Plus, you'll have additional peace of mind knowing that the HEM-650 comes with a 5-year warranty.

Because the HEM-650 has a wrist cuff, it is particularly helpful if you have a larger than average sized arm. The monitor fits those with a wrist size of 5.25 to 8.5 inches, and it ensures easier and more comfortable use. Note, however, that a wrist monitor does require proper positioning of the device at the heart level. Correct cuff positioning is critical when monitoring blood pressure, fortunately, the HEM-650 features an advanced positioning sensor that automatically confirms that the cuff is level with the user's heart, thereby ensuring an accurate reading.

It is critical that when using a blood pressure monitor the cuff is the appropriate size and is properly applied. An ill-fitting cuff or an incorrectly-applied cuff can result in inaccurate readings. Consult your doctor or the included instructions for the proper application of the cuff.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? This unit works well and accurately.


1 out of 5 stars questionable quality   September 7, 2010

I really need a reliable BP monitor to track my own BP due to several concurrent medical conditions, and Omron is the supposed leader. Sad to say, the monitor failed within six weeks of purchase, when I desperately needed to give my doctor my readings over the phone. I ended up admitted to the hospital through the emergency room, due to dangerously low blood pressure, combined with dangerously high pulse. The monitor could have confirmed that the meds I was on had lowered my BP too low, too fast, causing a dangerous situation for me. Had the Omron 650 worked that day, I might have had quicker medical care through my own doctor, rather than a very costly ER experience with a doctor who was clueless as to why I was telling him how much lower my blood pressure was running on the new medication change. He admitted me, ran a ton of tests (when all I needed was a change in medication), and I am now almost $7000 poorer (employer only offers catastrophic health insurance policy). Now I am faced with replacing with a backup, and shipping this one back. Omron was not helpful at all. I have to go to the office to print out the email purchase/ship confirmation from Amazon, and write Omron a letter, to get the thing repaired/replaced under warranty. If your health depends on a BP monitor, think twice about this model from Omron.

Simple, easy and works perfectly. I had it checked at the hospital and it is right on. If you are looking for a way to check your blood pressure, I highly recommend this product.... It couldn't be easier to use.

this blood pressure monitor is not accurate. It is consistently about 15 points below on the sistolic and the diastolic readings. I compare that with another monitor I own, a Grocery store monitor, and a doctor's monitot. I doubt that they are all wrong.

This is a great product. I liked it so well that I bought three so I could share with my parents and my Aunt and Uncle.
