| Abstract: | The Copal UA-251, an electronic sphygmomanometer with paper print-out, was compared with a random-zero sphygmomanometer in 20 Ss. Blood pressures (BP) were measured simultaneously at rest, on standing and after moderate exercise. The two instruments were generally in good agreement. and the electronic sphygmomanometer had a low failure rate. The UA-251 is recommended for BP self-monitoring by hypertensive patients, since the print-out ensures an accurate record of BP readings and their timing. |
