The ComFit Cuff is pre-formed for a quick and proper fit that is perfect for both medium and large-sized arms (nine to 17 inches). It's easy to apply the cuff to your arm without any assistance -- simply wrap the cuff around your arm and press start. In seconds your blood pressure and pulse are displayed on the large digital panel. Proven time and time again, Omron's IntelliSense technology ensures accurate, clinically-proven, and comfortable readings. And with a 60-memory recall with date and time stamp, you can track your blood pressure and pulse progress as your work towards a healthier lifestyle.
The Omron HEM-711DLX delivers accurate, clinically-proven blood pressure readings in the comfort of your own home.
To take an accurate reading, first position the green marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm.
Next, place your arm on a table so the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart.
Instructions for Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitors There are several easy steps to taking your blood pressure with this monitor. First of all, avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your upper arm, and sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Slide your left arm through the cuff and position the cuff approximately 0.5-inches above the elbow. On the cuff you'll notice a green marker; position this marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm. Next, secure the cuff with the Velcro material. The cuff should make direct contact with your skin, but you should be able to easily fit your index finger between the cuff and your arm.
Place your arm on a table so that the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart. Rest comfortably in a relaxed environment for at least 15 minutes prior to taking your blood pressure measurement. Once you feel relaxed, simply press the start button and remain still. The cuff will begin to inflate and numbers will appear on the display as the heart symbol flashes. When the measurement is complete, the cuff will deflate, and your blood pressure and pulse rate will display on the screen. If you need to stop the measurement at any time, simply press the on/off button and the monitor will immediately deflate. And remember, always consult your physician for specific information about your blood pressure.
What is IntelliSense? The IntelliSense monitor inflates the cuff to the ideal level with each use -- you never have to make any adjustments to select an inflation level. This is especially convenient for hypertensive users and for people with certain arrhythmia or heart disorders because their blood pressure is so likely to fluctuate. The biggest advantage of using the IntelliSense technology is a personalized inflation every time for maximum comfort.
The Importance of Home Blood Pressure Monitoring Doctors, diabetes educators, physician assistants, nurses, and other healthcare professionals all recommend home blood pressure monitoring for various reasons. Home monitoring provides your healthcare professionals with better information to understand and manage your high blood pressure. Many types of hypertension can only be detected by monitoring your blood pressure at home, including:
White-Coat Hypertension: blood pressure reading is high in your doctor's office but lower at home
Masked Hypertension: blood pressure reading is low in doctor's office but higher at home
Morning Hypertension: blood pressure reading is higher in the morning
Additionally, many factors can affect your blood pressure, including physical exertion, emotional fluctuations, medications, and stress. So having your blood pressure monitored at a pharmacy with an in-store device after you've been shopping or walking around might not provide you with the most accurate measurement. Monitoring your blood pressure at home allows you achieve a relaxed state more easily, and it gives you the flexibility to take your measurements at various times during the day. By keeping track of your home blood pressure readings, you can provide your healthcare professional with a log of your measurements over time. This can help them evaluate the effectiveness or need for medication.

generous cuff size, easy to operate, easy instruction manual:
I purchased the HM-711 DLX because it said it had a larger cuff. My arms aren't enormous (but obviously not twigs either) and I found the cheaper model I tried was right at the edge of not fitting. I was a bit leary of the rigid pre-formed end of the cuff, but have found it to be useful, eliminating the clumsy flopping and fumbling of the end you sometimes have when trying to apply the cuff to yourself one-handed. I've had very few error messages when taking a reading with the Omron HM-711 DLX, the... more info
Easy to Use:
The product was recommended by my sister, an RN, who has one. We got ours and have been happy with it. It is easy to use and seems to provide consistent readings.
Product performs as advertised:
The unit arrived in a timely manner and operated as advertised with clear operating instructions. The unit continues to perform as expected. Thank you for prompt delivery and convenient purchase policies.
Is anyone else having this problem with the cuff?:
I purchased this monitor to replace another brand that I had, hoping to get an easier-to-use cuff. To my disappointment this one is giving me even worse problems. Aligning it as directed, the cuff starts to inflate but then stops and I get an error indication. If I hold my arm *just right*, making contact with the cuff's lining in a particular position, I can (sometimes after 7 or 8 tries) get it to grab and inflate all the way and give me a reading. It's very irritating and not conducive to healthy blood... more info
