Overview
Released––
Measuring
TypeUpper armUpper arm
Clinically validatedYesYes
Irregular heartbeat detectionYesYes
AFib detection or ECGYesYes
MethodAutomatic oscillometric measurement with fuzzy-logic-controlled inflation; designed for adult home useOscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation, with Gentle+ pressure control. Side switch selects standard single measurement or AFIB/MAM mode; three automatic measurements with 15-second pauses are analysed into one displayed result. Individual readings are not displayed; a fourth measurement is taken if one is questionable. First actual on-sale date unresolved
AccuracyMaker specification ±3 mmHg pressure and ±5% pulse; pressure range 0–299 mmHg, systolic 60–279 mmHg, diastolic 40–200 mmHg and pulse 40–180 beats/minExact S-V9 manual gives blood pressure 20–280 mmHg, pulse 40–200 bpm, static pressure ±3 mmHg and pulse ±5%. Current global support instead separates systolic 60–255 and diastolic 40–200 mmHg. Slovenian page's 20–80 blood-pressure line conflicts with both and is not used. Cuff-pressure display 0–299 is separate
Clinical validationSTRIDE BP lists UA-611Plus as equivalent to the validated UA-1020, citing 2013 BHS 1993 studies; this is approved device equivalence, not a direct UA-611Plus validation study. A&D's shared manual separately states ISO 81060-2:2013 clinical testingSTRIDE BP lists equivalence to BP A100, adult and diabetes populations, and 22–42 and 32–52 cm cuffs. Headline reflects registry acceptance by equivalence, not an exact-model validation study. Broad maker special-population and AFib performance claims are not treated as independently established exact-model trials
FeaturesIHB/AFib screening indicator, pressure progress bar, WHO classification indicator, stored-reading average and automatic power-off; maker says AFib screening is for monitoring and not diagnosisAFib indication is active only in AFIB/MAM mode, not the standard single-measurement mode. It is a screening indication rather than ECG recording or diagnosis. Cuff-fit and arm-movement indicators, classification scale, low-battery warning and automatic switch-off after approximately one minute
Cuff
Cuff fits22–32 cm22–42 cm
CuffSupplied latex-free and metal-free cuff fits 22–32 cm; optional small 16–24 cm, semi-large 23–37 cm, wide-range 22–42 cm and large 31–45 cm cuffs, sold separatelySlovenian maker bundle supplies conical M-L 22–42 cm cuff. Manual lists optional S 17–22, M 22–32, L 32–42 and L-XL 32–52 cm sizes and optional preformed cuffs; these are not all supplied
Connections and memory
Readings stored60 (better)1
Bluetooth and appNoNo
MemoryLast 60 blood pressure and pulse measurements, with stored-reading average; no separate user memories listedOriginal BP A150 AFIB S-V9 guide stores the last result only; recall by holding ON/OFF while switched off until the stored result and M appear. Slovenian product table instead lists 30 places, and global support's other manual filename refers to A150-30 AFIB. The separately named A150-30 model's history is not transferred to this original record. No clock or user-selection operation established
AppNo Bluetooth; readings can be recorded manually–
PowerFour AA 1.5 V batteries according to the exact manual; approximately 700 measurements with LR6 alkaline or 200 with R6P manganese batteries at 180 mmHg and 23°C. UA-611Plus has no DC socket; the adapter in the shared manual applies only to UA-651PlusFour 1.5 V AA alkaline cells; approximately 920 measurements with new batteries in S-V9 guide, with no separate AFIB/MAM-cycle count stated. Optional DC 6 V, 600 mA Microlife adapter stops battery-current consumption when connected. NiMH cells require external charging. Slovenian AAA line conflicts with exact manual and its own four-AA bundle

In the boxUK pack includes UA-611Plus monitor, 22–32 cm cuff, instruction manual and four batteries; product-page box list says AAA but its linked exact manual specifies AASlovenian maker lists storage bag, four AA alkaline cells, blood-pressure diary and M-L 22–42 cm cuff. Adapter optional. Product link is Slovenian maker page; support and exact original manual include English
