Product Information

Wrist devices are subject to errors that are not presently evaluated in the available validation protocols. The most important source of error with wrist devices is the position of the arm in relation to the heart. A wrist device may fulfil the accuracy criteria of a validation protocol when strict attention is paid to having the wrist at heart level but in home use this may not happen and as a consequence the measurement can become inaccurate. For this reason validated upper arm devices are recommended in preference to wrist devices.

From 1st April 2023, the BIHS will only accept new derivative device applications where the original device validation was carried out under the European Society of Hypertension International Protocol revision 2010[1] or AAMI 2013 onwards or the Universal Standard (AAMI/ESH/ISO) validation protocol 2018[2,3,4]. This is because the 2002 ESH International Protocol and earlier protocols (including BIHS 1993) will be considered obsolete from then onwards.

Some machines can store readings for multiple people – handy if there’s more than one person in your house who needs to monitor their blood pressure.
