Description:
The Beurer BM 44 is an automatic blood pressure monitor. Although its blood pressure measurement technology has been evaluated, it is not possible to base a determination on its accuracy from this research. Blood pressure measurements are taken from the upper arm. It is intended for self-measurement and home use.
Assessment:
The technology used in the Beurer BM 44, to measure blood pressure, has been assessed, in a general population, according to a non-standard protocol.
