Assessment:
There appears to be no peer-reviewed clinical validation information available on the technology used in the Greater Goods Balance 0606 to measure blood pressure. However, this device appears to be very similar to another device by the same manufacturer or a device within a family of equivalent devices. At least one validation needs to be published and equivalence needs to be proven according to a protocol compliant with (EU) 2017/745 and MEDDEV 2.7/1 rev 4.
