- Method
- Oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation with Gentle+ pressure control. Side switch selects single measurement or AFIB/MAM mode; three measurements with 15-second pauses produce one analysed result. Individual results are not displayed; a fourth measurement is taken if one is questionable. First actual on-sale date unresolved
- Accuracy
- Current E-V10 July 2025 guide gives systolic 60–255 mmHg, diastolic 40–200 mmHg, pulse 40–199 bpm, static accuracy ±3 mmHg and pulse accuracy ±5%. France page instead gives blood pressure 20–280 mmHg and pulse 40–200 bpm; global support also gives pulse 40–200. These range differences remain explicit. Cuff-pressure display 0–299 mmHg is separate
- Clinical validation
- STRIDE BP accepts equivalence to BP A100 for adult and diabetes populations, with 22–42 and 32–52 cm cuffs. Headline reflects registry acceptance by equivalence, not a separate exact-model validation trial. Broad maker population and AFib accuracy claims are not treated as exact-model independent studies
- Features
- AFib screening only operates in AFIB/MAM mode, not standard single measurements. It is not an ECG recording or diagnosis. Cuff-fit and arm-movement indicators, coloured classification scale, low-battery warning and automatic switch-off after approximately one minute
Cuff
- Cuff fits
- 22–42 cm
- Cuff
- France maker bundle supplies soft conical M-L 22–42 cm cuff. Guide lists optional S 17–22, M 22–32, L 32–42 and L-XL 32–52 cm sizes and preformed cuffs; these are not all supplied
Connections and memory
- Readings stored
- 30
- Bluetooth and app
- No
- Memory
- Automatically stores the last 30 readings with date and time; oldest overwritten when full. Separate M-button recalls previous readings and clears all history. Individual stored readings cannot be cleared, though a newly displayed result can be excluded before storage. History survives battery replacement but clock must be reset. This is the separately named 30-memory model, not the original A150 AFIB S-V9 last-result-only version
- Power
- Four 1.5 V AA alkaline cells; approximately 920 measurements with new batteries, with no separate AFIB/MAM-cycle count stated. Optional Microlife DC 6 V, 600 mA adapter stops battery-current use when connected. NiMH cells supported but require external charging
Design
- Display details
- LCD with date/time, M-memory and ON/OFF buttons, side time control and 1/3 AFIB/MAM switch. IP20. Current guide cover abbreviates the name to BP A150 AFIB; exact official A150-30 download, M/time controls and 30-reading operation establish its applicability
- Size
- 152 × 92 × 42 mm; 393 g including batteries in current exact guide and maker pages
- In the box
- France maker lists cloth storage bag, four AA alkaline cells, blood-pressure diary and soft M-L 22–42 cm cuff. Adapter optional. Product resource is French regional maker page; global support and current multilingual guide include English
