This cutting-edge device is set to transform the landscape of patient care by delivering unparalleled accuracy, inclusivity, and access to comprehensive health insights for the 129 million Americans living with a chronic illness.
In response to the growing demand for effective RPM solutions, Smart Meter has engineered a multi-cuff blood pressure monitor that addresses the limitations of traditional single-cuff devices. The new iBloodPressure Classic Multi Cuff Monitor is a revolutionary monitor designed to provide healthcare professionals with a more detailed and accurate understanding of a patient’s blood pressure trends over time, essential for managing chronic conditions and optimizing care strategies.
These three different cuff sizes are designed to comfortably fit arms from 8.6 to 20.5 inches in diameter, an impressive 11.9-inch range, setting the benchmark for inclusive in-home blood pressure monitoring. This ensures that patients with arms that are a variety of sizes can easily position the cuff correctly, which is essential for the reading to be as accurate as possible.
According to American Heart Association research1, having an appropriate cuff size is imperative for best results. In addition, the research revealed:
Using a one cuff size-fits-all approach when measuring blood pressure may lead to striking inaccuracies in blood pressure measurement and diagnosis, according to a new study.
Inaccurate readings due to wrong cuff size were particularly evident in people with obesity, who require large or extra-large cuff sizes for accurate blood pressure readings.
It is important for health care professionals and the public to recognize the importance of cuff size for office, kiosk and home blood pressure measurement.
Transforming Chronic Care Management:
The introduction of this multi-cuff blood pressure monitor represents a significant advancement in chronic care management. By enabling more accurate measurements and facilitating remote monitoring, the device empowers healthcare providers to offer more personalized and effective care. Patients benefit from a more accurate assessment of their health status, leading to better management of their conditions and improved overall outcomes.
“Accurate transmission of a patient’s blood pressure is crucial for healthcare providers to track trends and make care plan adjustments when needed,” said Smart Meter CEO Casey Pittock. “We listened carefully to our customers who serve tens of thousands of providers to develop this new version of our iBloodPressure Classic monitor that is now compatible with three different cuff sizes. These new cuff sizes will not only help a broader range of patients but also help improve the accuracy of those readings.”
Availability and Future Developments:
The multi-cuff blood pressure monitor is now available for purchase through Smart Meter’s nationwide network of authorized SmartPartners. The company is committed to continuing its innovation in healthcare technology, with plans to further enhance its product lineup and expand its offerings in remote patient monitoring and chronic care management.
