Recommendations:

	Accuracy Assessment	Recommendation	Basis
BP	Medaval	None	Although equivalence to another device is claimed, this has not been tested to MDR requirements.
BP	Japanese Society of Hypertension	Self-measurement and professional use (2021-2022)	Implied equivalence to the Terumo ES-H55
