Measuring

Type: Upper arm
Clinically validated: Yes
Irregular heartbeat detection: Yes
AFib detection or ECG: No
Method: Oscillometric upper-arm monitor. Exact Ukrainian product page identifies IMT/Comfort+ measurement during inflation; June 2023 exact guide instead retains a step describing gradual pressure fall before the result. Maker-page IMT identity retained with that manual conflict explicit. MAM mode takes three measurements with 15-second pauses and displays one analysed result; a questionable reading triggers a fourth. Actual first retail date unresolved
Accuracy: June 2023 guide and Ukrainian maker page publish blood pressure 20–280 mmHg and pulse 40–200 bpm; global support instead lists systolic 60–255 and diastolic 40–200 mmHg. Static pressure accuracy ±3 mmHg and pulse accuracy ±5% in guide. Cuff-pressure display range 0–299 mmHg is separate from measured blood pressure
Clinical validation: STRIDE BP lists this exact model for adult home use by accepted equivalence to BP A200 Comfort, whose 2016 studies used ESH-IP 2010 and ANSI/AAMI/ISO 2013. This is not a separate published A3L Comfort trial. Medaval says the equivalence evidence is unpublished and cannot be independently verified against its MDR assessment requirements. Maker claims for pregnancy or other special populations are not established by this adult registry entry
Features: Generic irregular-heartbeat indication, cuff-fit and arm-movement indicators, coloured pressure classification scale, low-battery warning and automatic switch-off after approximately one minute. No dedicated AFib algorithm or ECG

Cuff

Cuff fits: 22–42 cm
Cuff: Ukrainian maker bundle supplies conical soft M-L 22–42 cm cuff. Guide lists M 22–32, M-L 22–42 and L 32–42 cm, with optional pre-shaped cuffs and special connector instructions for optional S 17–22 cm. STRIDE lists validated sizes 17–22, 22–32, 22–42 and 32–52 cm; those are not all supplied

Connections and memory

Users: 2
Readings stored: 99 per user
Bluetooth and app: No
Memory: Two user histories with 99 dated readings each, selected by user switch. First recall shows average of all stored readings; guide labels this 28A but does not define a 28-day period. Oldest overwritten when full; selected user's complete history can be cleared, individual saved values cannot. Newly displayed result can be excluded from storage. Readings survive battery replacement but clock requires reset
App: USB Mini-B five-pin connection transfers stored readings to Microlife Blood Pressure Analyzer+ PC software. Monitor buttons are disabled during PC connection. No Bluetooth phone connection
Power: Four 1.5 V AA alkaline cells in exact guide and Ukrainian bundle; global support incorrectly lists AAA. Approximately 920 measurements with new batteries, not a separately specified triple-cycle count. Optional Microlife DC 6 V, 600 mA adapter stops battery-current use while connected. NiMH cells supported with external charging

Design

Display details: LCD with date/time, user and MAM indicators; memory, ON/OFF and time buttons. Separate user and single/triple switches, cuff socket, Mini-B USB and DC sockets. IP20
Size: 143 × 85 × 58 mm; 385 g including batteries in exact guide and maker pages
In the box: Ukrainian maker lists conical soft M-L 22–42 cm cuff, four AA alkaline cells, USB cable, textile bag and blood-pressure diary. Adapter optional; other regional bundles may differ
