Seems to be Accurate January 19, 2006 James Krebs (Gautier, MS) 29 out of 29 found this review helpful
I've had it for one day and it seems to be accurate. I calibrated the UA-787EJ against the manual setup (stethiscope, gauge and cuff) that I purchased last week and the readings are consistant. I read the first review that stated their disatisfaction b/c the readings were "high". I would recommend calibrating the unit yourself and if it is off, return it for another or a refund.
For the last week I've tested several monitors in the local stores (Omron, ReliOn, LifeSource) and I felt that all of them reported low BP readings. I even ordered one that was very eratic in its readings but was always 10 to 12 points lower than the readings taken w/a stethiscope (sometimes I used the BP machine at Wal-Mart, which seemed to be consistent). I returned it for a refund.
I work at a hospital, and a co-worker used the new UA-787EJ this morning, found that his blood pressure was very high, went down to ER and indeed it was extremely high. If you have doubts about the accuracy, I suggest purchasing the manual steth., gauge and cuff to do your own calibartion. It was the only way I could be confident the automatic unit was accurate and reliable. The manual setup only costs about $16.00 from Wal-Mart (maybe less from Amazon) and taking your BP is easy.
Very happy with Life Source UA-787EJ December 25, 2009 C. A. Lazar 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This BP monitor is easy to use and set up. It is also very accurate and calibrated well with readings taken at the MD's office. Cuff accommodates several adult sized arms in the household.
It does the job well December 22, 2009 Robert B (Utah, USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
There have been no problems with the monitor during the 3 months I have owned it. The instructions are clear and the monitor is easy to use. The AC adapter allows the monitor to be used without batteries. I brought it to a doctor's appointment and it gave a comparable blood pressure reading to that of the medical assistant.
