All OMRON blood pressure monitors are clinically proven accurate. They are clinically validated to be within the following:

• Blood pressure: within +/- 3 mgHg or 2 percent
• Pulse: within +/- 5 percent of reading.

Yes, OMRON home blood pressure monitors are latex-free. This includes the monitor, the cuffs and the AC adapter (if included).

It is quite possible that your readings may be different from your upper arm to your wrist as blood pressure varies throughout the human body. All OMRON blood pressure monitors, whether upper arm or wrist, are validated in the same manner and have the same accuracy specifications. In terms of which type of blood pressure monitor is best for you, we recommend that you discuss this with your doctor, based on your individual needs.

Blood pressure measurement values vary from the left arm to the right arm. The average is generally within 10 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) for most individuals. OMRON home blood pressure monitors are generally designed for use on the left arm as they are validated through clinical studies using the left arm. You should talk to your doctor before using the right arm to take a measurement.

Yes, you can measure your blood pressure and EKG at the same time. You can also take a blood pressure measurement and record an EKG separately.

No, you must place your smart device on the designated smartphone stand on your monitor to obtain the most accurate reading.

OMRON blood pressure monitors are NOT intended for use during exercise or activity. We recommend that you avoid eating, drinking alcohol or caffeinated beverages, smoking, bathing and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. It is also best to rest for 15 minutes before starting the measurement.

Yes, it is very important to use the appropriate size cuff for your arm in order to get accurate measurement results when using your home blood pressure monitor. If you use the wrong sized cuff, you will likely experience inaccurate readings, inconsistent readings and error messages from the device.

Please refer to the Instruction Manual for your monitor for details.

1. Remove tight fitting clothing from your upper arm.
2. Sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Rest your left arm on a table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart. Turn the palm of your hand upward.
3. Hold the cloth closure on the cuff with your other hand.
4. Turn the palm of your hand upward. Apply the cuff on your upper arm.
5. Align the marker on the cuff over the brachial artery on the inside of your arm.
6. The cuff tube should run down the center of the arm even with the middle finger.
7. The bottom of the cuff should be approximately ½-1 inch above the elbow.
8. Secure the cuff around your arm using the cloth closure.
9. Make sure the cuff is wrapped firmly in place.
10. Relax your arm and place your elbow on the table so that the cuff is at the same level as your heart.

The Long Life Pads come in two different sizes. Standard size pads come with the TENS units and are 4" H x 2.5" W each and work on multiple body parts. Standard size pad refills can be purchased separately. Large sized Long Life Pads are 25% larger than standard pads -- 4.75" H x 3" W -- and are good for covering a wider area of pain while ergonomically shaped to fit curves.

Any of the OMRON TENS units can easily be shared with other family members. Please make sure that each person has their own set of Long Life Pads or electrode cord with gel pads to prevent cross-contamination between individuals.

Yes, TENS therapy is a good adjunct therapy in addition to your regular pain regimen such as heat, cold, wraps, physical therapy and medications. Always ask your physician if you have any questions about your health.

The OMRON Pocket Pain Pro, Pain Relief Pro, Max Power Relief, and Heat Pain Pro units may be used on the shoulder in all positions. This includes the upper arm and the upper back or shoulder blade area. See pad placement guide for exact positions. Feel free to use any of the modes, including shoulder, on your shoulder pain. Choose the one that is most comfortable on your pain.

First, turn the power off and disconnect the pads from the electrode cord. Then simply wash the pads softly with your fingertips under slow running cold water for several seconds. Pads can be washed up to 10 times. Let the pads completely air dry before reconnecting to your unit. Do not wipe pads with any towels or cloth. We recommend cleaning your pads after 15 uses.

They should be a minimum of 1 inch apart on clean, dry, healthy skin; the pads should never touch or overlap.

The Long Life Pads are good for up 150 uses or 5 months based on daily usage. Caring for your pads is easy; simply clean the pads as recommended up to 10 times. When replacing your pads, remove the protective film from the pads and place on the holder provided when you purchased your pain relief unit.

You can begin with one 15-minute therapy session. Repeat for another 15 minutes if needed. Use up to three times per day at a maximum. During each therapy, rate your pain before and after the session, 1 (low) to 10 (high) in order to gauge the true reduction of pain.

Do not put the pads on or near your heart, directly on your chest, or on your neck. This could cause heart disturbance.

If the pad is no longer sticky, it maybe dirty or soiled. Wipe the surface with a soft non-paper based cloth moistened with water. If you have used your pad 30 or more times, you can purchase replacement pads.

This OMRON body composition monitor and scale stores up to 30 readings for four profiles, tracking your progress. See Section 5, Set-up your Personal Data, in your instruction manual to learn how. Your BCM-500 also has a Guest Mode for occasional visitors. These recordings, however, are not recorded. See Section 10, Guest Mode, for more information.

The BCM-500 is clinically validated for accuracy of Visceral Fat Level, Body Fat Percentage, Skeletal Muscle Percentage and Resting Metabolism.

If you would like to manually calculate your lean body mass you can do so by subtracting your body fat in pounds from your total body weight. You can determine the amount of body fat in pounds by multiplying your weight by the body fat percentage. For example, a 200lb person with 20% body fat would have 40 lbs of fat (200 X .20). His lean body mass would then be 200-40= 160lbs.

Set your monitor on a hard flat surface. Placing it on carpet or a mat can effect accuracy. Step onto your monitor with your bare feet and place the arches of your feet onto the center of the monitor. Wearing socks or footwear can result in an inaccurate measurement. Also, do not bend y our knees during measurement to assure accuracy.

The process for changing the mode of readings is unique to your model. Please check your instruction manual or contact our support representatives at (866) 216-1333. If you need an electronic copy of your manual please click here for a list of manuals available for download.

OMRON's Fat Loss Monitor with Scale estimates the body fat percentage by using the Bioelectrical Impedance (BI) Method. Muscles, blood vessels and bones are body tissues having a high water content that conducts electricity easily. Body fat is tissue that has little electrical conductivity. The Fat Loss Monitor with Scale sends an extremely weak electrical current of 50 kHz and less and 500 µA through your body to determine the amount of fat tissue. This weak electrical current is not felt while operating the Fat Loss Monitor with Scale.

Understanding the normal changes in your body fat percentage can help you in preventing or reducing obesity. Being aware of the times when the body fat percentages shift within your own daily schedule will assist you in obtaining an accurate trending of your body fat. It is recommended to use this monitor in the same environment and daily circumstances.

AFib (atrial fibrillation) is an irregular heartbeat condition in which electrical signals are generated from places outside of the sinus nodes of the heart, causing the atria of the heart to quiver1. This disrupts normal heart rhythm and reduces the heart’s ability to pump blood efficiently throughout the body2.

1,2.Mayo Clinic Staff. (2024). An Overview of Atrial Fibrillation. Mayo Clinic. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/atrial-fibrillation/symptoms-causes/syc-20350624

AFib increases stroke risk fivefold, particularly raising the likelihood of a cardiogenic brain embolism1. This type of stroke accounts for 20% of all strokes and has the highest mortality rate among them2.

2.Schneck et al. (2021). Cardioembolic Stroke. Medscape. https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/1160370-overview?form=fpf#a1

Risk factors for developing AFib include hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, and aging1. Hypertension contributes to AFib risk by increasing intra-atrial pressure and causing changes to the structure of atrial muscles in the heart2.

1,2.Mayo Clinic Staff. (2024). An Overview of Atrial Fibrillation. Mayo Clinic. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/atrial-fibrillation/symptoms-causes/syc-20350624

AFib can cause blood to stagnate in the atria of the heart, leading to the formation of blood clots1. These clots can then travel to the brain and block blood vessels, causing a major stroke known as a cardiogenic brain embolism2.

1,2.Mayo Clinic Staff. (2024). An Overview of Atrial Fibrillation. Mayo Clinic. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/atrial-fibrillation/symptoms-causes/syc-20350624

Approximately 40% of AFib patients do not experience any symptoms, making early detection challenging1. Some common symptoms include heart palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, and fatigue2.

1,2. Streur et al. (2019). Atrial Fibrillation Symptom Perception. Journal for Nurse Practitioners. https://www.npjournal.org/article/S1555-4155(18)30697-4/abstract

Chronic hypertension forces the heart to work harder to pump blood, which leads to a thickening of the left ventricular wall1. This thickening reduces its flexibility and increases its workload, causing the left atrium to enlarge over time2. The structural change disrupts normal electrical activity in the heart, triggering arrhythmias that can ultimately lead to AFib3.

American Journal of Cardiology. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12781903/#:~:text=Hypertension%20is%20associated%20with%20left,the%20risk%20of%20thromboembolic%20complications.

An irregular heartbeat notification indicates that the heart rhythm is 25% less or 25% more than the average rhythm detected while your monitor is measuring blood pressure, which may affect the accuracy of the reading. In contrast, an AFib notification detects specific wave patterns unique to AFib, requiring precise analysis of pulse wave intervals and other distinct characteristics of the wave form in a state of AFib.

AFib is a common heart rhythm disorder where the heart beats rapidly and irregularly, which can reduce how efficiently blood moves through the heart.

Yes. Many people with AFib don’t notice symptoms, and episodes can come and go, making it harder to detect without monitoring and clinical evaluation.

A healthcare professional typically diagnoses AFib using clinical evaluation and tools such as an ECG.
