Manual Blood Pressure Cuff - Aneroid Sphygmomanometer with Case - BP Kit Monitor for Adults, Nurses - One Hand, One Tube Upper Arm Cuff Machine - BPM Meter Device for Professionals

My husband is a firefighter and has been having strange episodes of high blood pressure, particularly at night. He doesn’t trust the digital automatic blood pressure machines so he insisted we buy this one when his doctor instructed him to start logging his blood pressure consistently. It works well, as intended. He even taught me how to take blood pressures with it.

This is great. The velcro is really tough, in a good way. It fits perfectly on most body shapes. I practice on my man and self, and haven’t had any issues with sizing being as though he’s a hundred lbs heavier than me. Everything feels so durable about this product - no leaks, the dial reads well, everything’s good. Definitely a good buy and inexpensive.

As an R.N. with over 50 years of experience, This BP cuff and sphygmomanometer as very easy to use and accurate. Don't forget to be comfortably seated and quiet for 5 minutes before starting. Have your feet flat on the floor and your arm elevated on a pillow at your heart height. Place the cuff properly your arm and relax. Vive health sells excellent products at decent prices.

What I like. Numbers have been consistent and matches other manual blood pressure’s others have taken with other cuffs so believe it’s pretty accurate. Accuracy is the most important aspect which is why I returned a Paramed which proved not accurate. I’m an RN so for me the Vive is easy to use and because of the D-ring it’s easy for me to use on myself.What I don’t like. The inflation/deflation bulb knob frequently sticks making it occasionally difficult to inflate or deflate, which is why I’ve ordered a replacement. Hopefully that will resolve the issue. Also I’d prefer a white background but definitely if using a black background have all the numbers white. The blue numbers indicating a normal blood pressure are difficult to see in low light.

I purchased this for my first semester of nursing school and it works really well. It's very easy to use and is made well. I have since used it pretty much daily in my first semester and continue to use it a TON during my second semester of school. It's always very easy to clean and carry. The only problem I run into is it tends to be too small for some larger patients. I will definitely need a larger one once working as an RN but for the moment, works like a dream. Definitely recommend for any LVN or RN students

In my opinion, this BP cuff is not suitable for medical use, or even use as a toy. The valve releases air on its own and cannot be stopped. Although the air release is very slow and a reading can be obtained, it is NOT accurate. As a medical professional, there are countless times and and countless reasons when I must isolate and 'freeze' a systolic or diastolic pressure for diagnostic purposes. With this cuff that medical task is impossible. I called the company and gave them my professional opinion. The representative became combative and said "that's the way we make them." I'd also point out that the alleged "calibration" feature on this cuff is nothing more than a small wrench (included) to twist the gauge needle BACK to zero, but that is certainly not how a professional calibration of a BP cuff is performed and maintained. In addition, the numbers on the gauge are white on a black background, but the numbers between 80 to 120 mmHg cannot be seen because they are dark blue on the same black background. Simply stated, find another cuff. I do not trust this one, and it's going back - immediately.

Worked great for about a year then it fell apart… so perfect for beginners

I’m in nursing school & needed to practice taking manual BPs I didn’t feel like having to check out a cuff from school, so I found this one. I didn’t have any issues with accuracy & all the parts worked well I’ve had it since August 2022
