Customer Reviews of Prevention DS-1902PV Auto-Inflate Blood Pressure Monitor
Customer Review: Has One Serious Flaw
Summary: 3 Stars
The flaw is that although it advertises irregular heartbeat detection, and it does do that, **it does NOT record it into memory**. If one needs to manually write down which events have irregular heartbeats then what is the use of the memory function?
Irregular heartbeats are a health concern for me and the main reason I chose this monitor over others, such as Omron. When I discovered that it doesn't keep a record in memory of irregular heartbeats I almost sent it back. I can't conceive of a reason that something detected and displayed can not be stored into memory along with the other information like time, date, BP and Pulse rate. What were they thinking?
I was also disappointed that it did not come with the owner's manual or quick start quide. I was also going to return it for that issue, except that I found them online and copied the PDF file. Very sloppy packaging!
Another minor aggravation is that the clock cannot be reset without having to remove the batteries. That triggers the clock reset functions, and is the only way it can be triggered. That should be corrected.
Copying down the information stored in memory is also a bit of a pain, as each record is only displayed for a short time, and if one is not finished copying the record, say # 22 in bank 1, then you must press the memory key another 22 times to get it back onscreen. If you overshoot, you have to start all over again. There should be an easier way.
Otherwise I found the instrument to be accurate and useful.
