    Blood Pressure Monitors

    iHealth Wireless BP7 blood pressure monitor

    This wireless wrist model has an irregular heartbeat detector, a BP risk category indicator and data averaging function. It allows multiple users to store readings separately and includes a one-size-fits-most cuff. It also indicates when the user's wrist is at heart level. The monitor must be paired with a smart device via Bluetooth to read results.

    About

    The iHealth Wireless BP7 is part of the Blood Pressure Monitor test program at Consumer Reports. In our lab tests, Blood Pressure Monitor models like the Wireless BP7 are rated on multiple criteria, such as those listed below.

    Accuracy: Accuracy is based on how the model's readings compared with those taken on a mercury sphygmomanometer used by two trained testers.

    Convenience: Convenience is based on pluses and minuses of the model's features (such as irregular heartbeat detection, a blood-pressure risk category indicator, and multiple user memories).

    Comfort: Comfort is based on opinion scores given by test subjects.
