Customer Reviews of Omron HEM-670IT Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor with APS (Advanced Positioning Sensor) and Advanced Omron Health Management Software
Customer Review: Easy to use; very accurate
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this monitor to keep track of my blood pressure so that I could give the printed reports to my doctor. I have one that I got from Sharper Image that is easy to use but you can't upload readings to a computer. The one from Sharper Image was also not very accurate when compared to using a regular doctor grade cuff with a stethoscope. The Omron monitor is much easier to use than the Sharper Image one, is easier to ensure the proper position and the uploading of the readings is very easy. I took the Omron monitor to my doctor to have her calibrate it against her measurements and the Omron monitor was nearly identical. Based on that and the printed reports, I was taken off my blood pressure medication!Customer Review: Omron HEM-670IT Wrist BP Monitor
Summary: 4 Stars
I Recently bought this item to monitor my BP while at home and it has done nothing but perform excellently and accurately since I've had it. I'm a critical care nurse by profession and I will definitely recommend this product to anyone who wants to monitor their BP at home. The Software is also cool it allows you to follow the trend of your BP to see the highs and the lows and see if there is a pattern there or not. The true BP that averages the BP gives a more accurate BP and rules out any measurement taken in error which is awesome because you cant base a high or low BP on just one measurement.
Overall, I'll give this BP monitor a 4/5 rating since it is a great small invention.

Omron HEM-670IT Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor with APS (Advanced Positioning Sensor) and Advanced Omron Health Management Software
I was very pleased that when I compare the Doctors BP reading using the Doctor's arm cuff with the HEM-670IT that I brought with me to his office. Comparison between the two reading was a difference of 7 points.
Printing a report of you readings to show your Doctor is a nice feature.
The line chart print out showing graphic the peaks and lows of your BP and Pulse Rate over a week time or monthly time span.
Customer Review: HEM 670IT BP Monitor
Summary: 2 Stars
Sad to say this does not appear to have been a good purchase - It wirks fine, I bought it to allow me to measure my BP at work. I own an Omron 790 and wanted to use the same software to keep records.
So why a poor purchase - well, My BP is typically 150/100 My Omnron 790 measures it at that and has done for a year, My Dr measures it at that and has dsone for 18 months. The 760 seems to think my BP is anywhere between 118/76 and 130/ 95. It VERY rarely gets anywhere near the truth!
I'd love to think the 760 is right, but the evidence is stacked against it - so, for an out of the box product that is supposedly calibrated this gets a HUGE thumbs down
Customer Review: Does everything it says it does!! WARNING but not on Windows 7
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought my monitor from Amazon in June 2008. To ensure it was providing the correct readings, I took it with me to doctor's office. Readings were on the money. My doctor loves the printouts I take him every six months. Two and a half years of use and no problems. It doesn't miss a beat (no pun intended!)!
MARCH 2011 WARNING: The Management Software for HEM-670IT is NOT compatible with WINDOWS 7. Just purchased a new computer and could NOT load the software. A search @ MicroSoft indicated driver was not available. NOTE: there is a newer model that is compatible. MY PROBLEM?? - My monitor is still working GREAT!!
