Hi doctor, my mother has been on high bp tablet for last 10 years. I was thinking to buy a bp monitor for home for regular checkups. I saw a few options in omron and Dr. trust but I am confused about the accuracy of these. Can you please help me decide which bp monitor should I get? Thanks a lot in advance.

You can even choose a model that you wear on your arm or wrist during the day. But not all of these are accurate. That?s why it?s important to bring your blood pressure monitor to the doctor before you start to use it. They can test it against the ones used in their office. There are lots of home blood pressure monitors to choose from. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

It's better you go for mercury based sphygmomanometer. They are accurate. Consult online to know how to use. It’s very easy.
