--this digital BP apparatus.
We have the aneroid BP apparatus, and since my son has difficulty checking the exact systolic and diastolic number on the aneroid manometer, he volunteered to purchase a digital BP apparatus online.
I bought one before when I worked in Kuwait last 1986-1990; it is not operational now though.
This one that my son bought arrived 3 days ago. It is more accurate when it is USB attached.
I said the batteries should always be okay so the readings are not erratic.
With just a push in the button, my BP reading is already taken.
Do you use a digital BP apparatus too?

can you share a picture of what it looks like? or just the brand and model so i can look it up?
the digital wrist type we have isn't working anymore and we don't know how to replace the battery so we plan to buy something new instead.

for me, i would still prefer the aneroid BP apparatus wherein you listen to the lub-dub of the heart rate.

@ridingbet We have no respiratory problems, but this is the best instruments to be sure you do not have Covid-19, until your oximeter shows 99% or 98% you can be sure that you have no problems.

the pulse oximeter is good too and it is beneficial most especially to those who have respiratory discomforts.

it is good to have a digital BP apparatus because God forbid, we might need it when situations arise.

the batteries should always be new when it reaches the number of frequencies using the gadget.
