To take an accurate reading, first position the green marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm. | 
Next, place your arm on a table so the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart. | Instructions for Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitors
There are several easy steps to taking your blood pressure with this monitor. First of all, avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your upper arm, and sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Slide your left arm through the cuff and position the cuff approximately 0.5-inches above the elbow. On the cuff you'll notice a green marker; position this marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm. Next, secure the cuff with the Velcro material. The cuff should make direct contact with your skin, but you should be able to easily fit your index finger between the cuff and your arm. Place your arm on a table so that the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart. Rest comfortably in a relaxed environment for at least 15 minutes prior to taking your blood pressure measurement. Once you feel relaxed, simply press the start button and remain still. The cuff will begin to inflate and numbers will appear on the display as the heart symbol flashes. When the measurement is complete, the cuff will deflate, and your blood pressure and pulse rate will display on the screen. If you need to stop the measurement at any time, simply press the on/off button and the monitor will immediately deflate. And remember, always consult your physician for specific information about your blood pressure. What is IntelliSense?
The IntelliSense monitor inflates the cuff to the ideal level with each use -- you never have to make any adjustments to select an inflation level. This is especially convenient for hypertensive users and for people with certain arrhythmia or heart disorders because their blood pressure is so likely to fluctuate. The biggest advantage of using the IntelliSense technology is a personalized inflation, every time, for maximum comfort. The Importance of Home Blood Pressure Monitoring
Doctors, diabetes educators, physician assistants, nurses, and other healthcare professionals all recommend home blood pressure monitoring for various reasons. Home monitoring provides your healthcare professionals with better information to understand and manage your high blood pressure. Many types of hypertension can only be detected by monitoring your blood pressure at home, including:
- White-Coat Hypertension: blood pressure reading is high in your doctor's office but lower at home
- Masked Hypertension: blood pressure reading is low in doctor's office but higher at home
- Morning Hypertension: blood pressure reading is higher in the morning
Additionally, many factors can affect your blood pressure, including physical exertion, emotional fluctuations, medications, and stress. So having your blood pressure monitored at a pharmacy with an in-store device after you've been shopping or walking around might not provide you with the most accurate measurement. Monitoring your blood pressure at home allows you achieve a relaxed state more easily, and it gives you the flexibility to take your measurements at various times during the day. By keeping track of your home blood pressure readings, you can provide your healthcare professional with a log of your measurements over time. This can help them evaluate the effectiveness or need for medication.

 Reliable and simple to use July 4, 2010
Linda A. Paul (Springfield, Ohio)
My doctor recommended the Omron brand when he determined it was important for my husband and me to routinely monitor our blood pressure. He felt Omron is the most reliable and accurate brand. We have been using it for approximately one month and the readings seem to be accurate. This product is easy to use and the operating instructions are clear and concise. We chose this model for the large cuff as both of us require that. If you are need of a home monitoring device, I would recommend this one.
Very good product June 5, 2010
Terry L. Tillis (Illinois)
I purchased this product after my doctor suggested that I keep track of my blood pressure at home. I'm very pleased at the accuracy and ease of use. Nothing to it. Put on the arm band (I ordered the large adult)and push a button. It also keeps the previous 30 tests so that you can monitor any fluxuation. The arm band does not get too tight during the test procedure and the monitor is very fast. I would suggest this product to anyone needing to monitor their own blood pressure or that of a family member.
 blood pressure monitor April 21, 2010
L. lin (calif)
It is easy to use. but we get Error once in a while and need to redo the test.
also, Blood pressure monitor is very sensitive to dropping. the product did not come with adequate packaging material to protect shock during shipping. i already return anothe Omron blood monitor and decide it is too much trouble to return and keep it.
Just what the doctor ordered! March 29, 2010
K. Hobson
We purchased the Omron at the specific recommendation of my husband's cardiologist. I did my research on the Omron website, choosing the HEM712 for its features, and the large cuff out of necessity. Before I purchased, I checked Amazon and saved over $40! The Omron was very easy to set up and is easy to use. The small size and low profile make it easy to store.
To check accuracy, my husband took his BP with the Omron before, and then after, going to the doctor's. The Omron matched within two points!
The Omron is easy to use, accurate and affordable. I cannot recommend it highly enough!
Eay and Accurate March 20, 2010
Turtleback (Greenville, SC)
My Doctor suggested Blood Pressure home monitoring as mine was a little high and He
wanted a record for a couple weeks. I found this unit online and I can tell you it works great.
I need the large cuff but there are smaller cuff models also.
Works well and is very simple to use. Get one of these and put your mind at ease.
Monitoring is very important and I am very pleased with my Omron and it was very reasonable also.
