Customer Reviews of Omron HEM-712C Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor with IntelliSense
Customer Review: Simple Enough for One-man Operation
Summary: 5 Stars
I am very satisfied with this product. I remember my sister, who is a nurse, used to take the blood pressures of everybody in the family (hypertension runs in our family ). She used a heavy blood measure monitor equipped with a pump and a tall glass gauge that is full of mercury. To work with that she also used a stethoscope to hear the heartbeat. Nobody could do it when my sister was not around. Now, with the way technology has changed everything, you do not need anybody to do it for you because you can do it yourself with these tools.
Just make sure to read the instruction. Be calm and still as fidgeting makes erroneous readings. Make sure to roll off the sleeve without restricting the blood vessels in your upper arm. OK to have very thin clothing, otherwise it is always ideal to have your arms bare.
Pros:
- The reading accuracy is close enough to what our physicians are using.
- It is very easy to use. You can measure your own blood pressure by pressing a single button.
- The LCD screen is simple and easy to read with big numbers. Likewise, the instruction booklet needs only a few pages to explain how to use the machine.
- Price for this model is very affordable.
Cons:
- No AC adaptor. Make sure you have rechargeables "AA's". It requires 4. (I suggest low discharge batteries like Eneloops or equal).
- It would be nice if it comes with a pouch for easy carrying.

 To take an accurate reading, first position the green marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm. |
 Next, place your arm on a table so the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart. |
There are several easy steps to taking your blood pressure with this monitor. First of all, avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your upper arm, and sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Slide your left arm through the cuff and position the cuff approximately 0.5-inches above the elbow. On the cuff you'll notice a green marker; position this marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm. Next, secure the cuff with the Velcro material. The cuff should make direct contact with your skin, but you should be able to easily fit your index finger between the cuff and your arm.
Place your arm on a table so that the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart. Rest comfortably in a relaxed environment for at least 15 minutes prior to taking your blood pressure measurement. Once you feel relaxed, simply press the start button and remain still. The cuff will begin to inflate and numbers will appear on the display as the heart symbol flashes. When the measurement is complete, the cuff will deflate, and your blood pressure and pulse rate will display on the screen. If you need to stop the measurement at any time, simply press the on/off button and the monitor will immediately deflate. And remember, always consult your physician for specific information about your blood pressure.
What is IntelliSense?
The IntelliSense monitor inflates the cuff to the ideal level with each use -- you never have to make any adjustments to select an inflation level. This is especially convenient for hypertensive users and for people with certain arrhythmia or heart disorders because their blood pressure is so likely to fluctuate. The biggest advantage of using the IntelliSense technology is a personalized inflation, every time, for maximum comfort.
The Importance of Home Blood Pressure Monitoring
Doctors, diabetes educators, physician assistants, nurses, and other healthcare professionals all recommend home blood pressure monitoring for various reasons. Home monitoring provides your healthcare professionals with better information to understand and manage your high blood pressure. Many types of hypertension can only be detected by monitoring your blood pressure at home, including:
- White-Coat Hypertension: blood pressure reading is high in your doctor's office but lower at home
- Masked Hypertension: blood pressure reading is low in doctor's office but higher at home
- Morning Hypertension: blood pressure reading is higher in the morning
