Omron blood pressure monitor for a low-cost design methodology (1)

When we on Omron smart electronic sphygmomanometer HEM-711AC disassembled, we deeply feel, personal care is becoming is not much to see highlights.

The sphygmomanometer with extremely low prices realized some complex measurements, place the product in a small package, and therefore suitable for home and out-of-use. The price is approximately HEM-711AC 60 dollars or so, obviously the product relies on low-cost design and accuracy required sphygmomanometer is required to possess a clever design.

Omron Healthcare, Inc. (OHI) is Omron (located in Japan Kyoto a diversified enterprise) of subsidiary companies, may be regarded as personal use of the top manufacturers in the blood, the company will develop focus rooted in civil and professional medical health detection products.

HEM-711AC with common arm sleeve and a volume as the basic unit of a small Notepad.

Although small enough to fit in your pocket, but can carry HEM-711AC absolute. Simply press a button, you can set the arm to the right air pressure filled. After that, electronic parts automatically measuring high (systolic) and low (diastolic), blood pressure and heart rate, and the results are displayed on the LCD screen of 2.5 inches. HEM-711AC by 4 AA alkaline battery, can also be powered by AC adapter.

HEM-711AC and most personal use sphygmomanometer, use "oscillatory waves induction (oscillometric)" technology to measure.

Oscillatory waves induction principle of detection methods are: the arm sleeve gradually put gas in the process, on the arm sleeve pressure fluctuation patterns are tracked; later, proprietary algorithm will be observed volatility to hypertension and hypotension.
