Proven time and time again, Omron's IntelliSense technology ensures accurate, clinically-proven, and comfortable readings. And with a 90 memory recall with date and time stamp, you can track your blood pressure and pulse progress as you work towards a healthier lifestyle.p table align=left width=250 cellpadding=10 tr td img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/hpc/detail-page/hem780-1-sm.jpg" border=0 align=topbrsmallibThe Omron HEM-790IT delivers accurate, clinically-proven blood pressure readings in the comfort of your own home./b/i/small /td /tr /table table align=right width=271 cellpadding=10 tr td img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/hpc/detail-page/hem711-4-lg.jpg" border=0 align=topbrbrsmallibTo take an accurate reading, first position the green marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm./b/i/small /td /tr tr td img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/hpc/detail-page/hem711-5-lg.jpg" border=0 align=topbrbrsmallibNext, place your arm on a table so the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart./b/i/small /td /tr /table bOmron Health Management Software/bbr Take your health to the next level with the included Omron Health Management Software. This PC software provides a blood pressure and pulse graph that lets you see how your values are trending over time. A morning/evening comparison graph tracks your morning and evening systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. You can also view your most common values and identify variations by time frame with the frequency distribution graph. The software is simple to use, and it supports multiple users. With just one click, you can download data via the HEM-790IT's USB connection and see graphically displayed measurements on your computer screen in seconds.p bInstructions for Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitors/bbr There are several easy steps to taking your blood pressure with this blood pressure 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.p 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.p bWhat is IntelliSense?/bbr 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.p bThe Importance of Home Blood Pressure Monitoring/bbr 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:br ul liWhite-coat Hypertension: blood pressure reading is high in your doctor's office but lower at home liMasked Hypertension: blood pressure reading is low in doctor's office but higher at home liMorning Hypertension: blood pressure reading is higher in the morning /ul 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.p table align=center width=250 cellpadding=10 tr valign="top" td img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/hpc/detail-page/B0009XQUDY-4.jpg" border=1 align=topbrbrsmallibThe included Omron Health Management Software provides a blood pressure and pulse graph that lets you see how your values are trending over time.

 It Works and it Works WELL January 8, 2009
John N. Schear (Roanoke, Virginia United States)
For the past two weeks our use of this machine has been consistent and the results from the readouts are the same: consistent. br / br /Before buying the 790, I took my old 711 to the cardiologist for measurement. The 711 was close to 100%. Doc said that is normal and suggested the 711 normally runs a tad high. By developing a statistical base I could now compare the 711 to the 790 to see if the comparison holds true. It held true. Given the difference in models, the bottom line is that the 790 works as well as the 711 BUT with major differences. You can have two separate users. That's nice for us. You can have two separate histories. Nice. The cuff on the 790 works so much better than the 711. While somewhat cheap, the 790 carrying case is still better than nothing. The 790 is fast even when using the 3 time average method (our favorite). Regardless of how well the 790 records blood pressure it has one additional factor that makes the price worthwhile: the software. In a few weeks I will visit my cardiologist with a printout of the 790's and the 720's pedometer's histories. While some of the numbers are not where I would want them they are the numbers and they provide information that could potentially save one's life. I know that to be true for my sake since I am writing this from the light side.
Very Happy January 6, 2009
Daniel Logue (SLC, UT)
The monitor and software are easy to use. I did take the monitor to my doctor and the results on my monitor come out a little higher than on the instruments in the doctors office but within a few points. It gives me piece of mind to know my medication is working.
MY DOCTOR VERY IMPRESSED WITH UNIT January 3, 2009
Gregory Sheppard (Rockville, Md.)
My doctor very impressed with this unit. It was compared with his machine and mine and it was very close to his. I knew before he said any thing that what he was using was the best but this unit was the next best thing for me to use since it was easy to use plus I was able to keep a record of my past blood pressures and print them out for him.
very impressed January 3, 2009
T. MCDILL (Alabama)
So glad I bought this monitor.VERY EASY to use.Just one touch and it does the rest. My husband and I have health issues and we check our blood pressure 3 times a day, write it on a chart and fax it to our Doctor. br /Our Doctor is glad we bought it too,he said to keep up the good work. br /We very highly reccomend this product!
 I HATE this machine!!!! December 29, 2008
Shesquirrel (Berea, Ohio)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am an RN and feel I know well enough to know how to use an electronic BP cuff. I get error messages about 90% of the time. Today I took it about 25 times and only got 2 readings that worked. That is enough to make anyone want to chuck it into the trash. Don't depend on this machine to be there for you in the case it is imperative to know your blood pressure. I am 36 weeks pregnant and I have been forced to take my own blood pressure MANUALLY during dizzy spells due to this machines malfunctions (and it is not easy to do when you feel you are about to pass out). Also, this machine will not take your BP standing up, which is imperative to diagnose orthostatic hypotension (a drop in blood pressure when you stand up as evidenced by feeling dizzy). The Omron rep. says you have to be sitting at all times and must have everything perfect (cuff, hose, fingers, not talk, feet flat, etc) for it to work....and EVEN THEN the chance of getting a error message or inaccurate reading are high. Yesterday I got a reading of 127/109... then in the same minute....and error...then the next minute I got a reading of 105/73. I never moved the cuff, myself or the machine. It just seems to want to do whatever it feels like doing. There are just too many variables to watch and this is simply unacceptable when someone is not feeling well. I have a patient who has a wrist cuff and it works just about 100% of the time...sitting AND standing. (it is also accurate when compared to my manual readings) I am going to find out what brand it is and buy THAT one. I will just give this one to Goodwill or something...but I have to admit, I am tempted to just put it in the trash to spare someone else the problems. What a waste of money as I have only had this for 2 months. I would NOT recommend this to anyone that depends on getting getting an reading in less than 5 or 7 tries...and even then, the accuracy in the reading you get is severely questionable.
