THE HAMMACHER SCHLEMMER INSTITUTE ANNOUNCES THE BEST BLOOD PRESSURE WRIST MONITOR
New York, NY, June 1st, 2009- Hammacher Schlemmer announces the selection of The Best Blood Pressure Wrist Monitor, chosen over other models in tests by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute for its superior accuracy, comfort, and ease of use.
“Since its inception in 1983, the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute has been committed to testing consumer products and determining which are the best,” explained Tara-Ann Dugan, Product Research Manager.
The Hammacher Schlemmer Institute commissioned a registered nurse to compare each model’s readings with blood pressure measurements obtained using a stethoscope and sphygmomanometer. The Best Blood Pressure Wrist Monitor deviated only 5.92% from the nurse’s measurements (considered “very accurate” by the European Society of Hypertension), far superior to lesser models that were off by as much as 23.57%.
“Unlike other monitors that were difficult to start, The Best Blood Pressure Wrist Monitor model automatically inflates around the wrist to the optimal level and measures blood pressure at the touch of a button, leading to one of the highest possible scores for ease of use,” stated Tara-Ann Dugan. Panelists lauded The Best Blood Pressure Wrist Monitor for being “very comfortable on the wrist,” while lesser models were described as “awkward”and “very tight.” It accommodates 5 ” to 8 ” wrists, stores 60 readings, and comes with a hard plastic case that provides optimal protection during travel.
The Best Blood Pressure Wrist Monitor is available from Hammacher Schlemmer for $89.95. For more information, please visit www.hammacher.com or call 1-800-543-3366.
