The
BpTRU is an automated non-invasive wall-mounted blood pressure
monitor that is reliable, accurate and easy to use. The device
is designed for the office, clinic or
acute care setting and operates
with or without the operator present. At the touch of a single
button, the device automatically performs
up to six measurements, discards the first reading and displays
the average of the subsequent readings. The interval of the
readings (start to start) can be varied from 1 to 5 minutes
depending on user preference as well as take a single point
measurement. The device is approved for use on patients
3 years of age and older. The BpTRU has undergone validation
tests and is a valuable alternative to currently used mercury
and aneroid devices.
