What is the difference between Omron sphygmomanometer made in Japan and that made in China?
The specific differences are as follows:

1, the product price is different from the market. Omron sphygmomanometer imported from Japan is more expensive than domestic sphygmomanometer and used in high-end occasions.

2, the product accuracy is different. The measurement accuracy of imported Omron sphygmomanometer is much higher than that of domestic Omron sphygmomanometer, which is more accurate and reliable.

3. Different materials are used for work. Japan pays more attention to the details and materials of products. Omron sphygmomanometer imported from Japan has better details and very durable quality.

Matters needing attention in using sphygmomanometer

1. There is too much subcutaneous fat in the upper arm, which leads to the cuff being tied too tightly or too loosely. Whether it is too tight or too loose, the measured blood pressure will be low. The appropriate degree is that after the cuff is tied, a finger should be freely inserted between the cuff and the upper arm.

2. When using the wrist sphygmomanometer, it is easier to wrap the cuff because there is less subcutaneous fat in the wrist, and it should not be too loose or too tight. However, the posture during measurement will affect the measured value. Experiments show that when the wrist rotates outward, it is easy to be nervous and raise blood pressure. The manual requires the wrist to stretch naturally when measuring.

However, when people do it according to the requirements in the instruction manual, they always turn their wrists outward unconsciously, which leads to measurement errors. Therefore, when measuring, they should naturally extend their wrists to about 45 degrees according to the requirements in the instruction manual. After paying attention to the above points, there will be no obvious difference between the values measured by the upper arm electronic sphygmomanometer and the wrist electronic sphygmomanometer.

3. For patients with peripheral circulatory system disorder, there may be a big error in the blood pressure measurement values of their wrists and upper arms, so it is recommended to use the upper arm electronic sphygmomanometer.

4. When standing, some people's blood pressure measurement errors are large, so it is recommended not to stand for testing.
