A&D Medical UA-611Plus vs Microlife BP A7 Touch
Better figure, where one is clearly better
| A&D MedicalUA-611Plus | MicrolifeBP A7 Touch | |
|---|---|---|
| Overview | ||
| Released | – | – |
| Measuring | ||
| Type | Upper arm | Upper arm |
| Clinically validated | Yes | Yes |
| Irregular heartbeat detection | Yes | Yes |
| AFib detection or ECG | Yes | Yes |
| Method | Automatic oscillometric measurement with fuzzy-logic-controlled inflation; designed for adult home use | Oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation with Gentle+ control. Side switch selects single measurement or AFIB/MAM triple mode; three readings separated by 15 seconds produce one analysed result. Questionable reading triggers a fourth; individual triple results are not displayed. Actual first retail sale unresolved |
| Accuracy | Maker 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/min | Exact French-linked non-Bluetooth S-V10-1 guide gives 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%; cuff-pressure display 0–299 mmHg is separate |
| Clinical validation | STRIDE 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 testing | STRIDE BP accepts exact A7 Touch for adult and diabetic home use by equivalence to BP A100, with referenced 2009, 2018 and 2021 studies. This is not an independent exact-model trial for every special population claimed by maker. Registry's dual-arm feature does not establish two simultaneous cuff inputs on this single-socket device |
| Features | IHB/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 diagnosis | AFib pulse-irregularity screening active only in AFIB/MAM triple mode; no ECG recording or ECG-confirmed diagnosis. Cuff-fit and arm-movement indications, pressure classification scale, low-battery warning and automatic switch-off after approximately one minute |
| Cuff | ||
| Cuff fits | 22–32 cm | 22–42 cm |
| Cuff | Supplied 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 separately | French maker supplies preformed M-L 22–42 cm cuff. Guide lists optional S 17–22, M 22–32, M-L 22–42, L 32–42 and L-XL 32–52 cm; those are not all supplied. STRIDE lists validated 22–42 and 32–52 cm sizes |
| Connections and memory | ||
| Users | – | 2 |
| Readings stored | 60 | 99 per user (better) |
| Bluetooth and app | No | No |
| Memory | Last 60 blood pressure and pulse measurements, with stored-reading average; no separate user memories listed | Touch user selection chooses user 1, user 2 or guest mode, whose readings are not stored. Two dated histories of 99 readings each; first recall shows an average, whose interval is not specified in exact guide. Oldest overwritten when full; complete selected-user history can be cleared, individual saved readings cannot. Newly displayed reading can be excluded. Readings survive battery replacement while clock needs reset |
| App | No Bluetooth; readings can be recorded manually | USB Mini-B five-pin cable transfers stored readings to Microlife Blood Pressure Analyzer+ PC software. No Bluetooth function in exact non-Bluetooth controls or guide. Separate A7 Touch BT is a different existing model; global A7 Touch support page now links BT manuals, which are not used for this record |
| Power | Four 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-651Plus | French exact guide and product list four 1.5 V AAA alkaline cells and approximately 400 measurements with new batteries; global support instead says AA. Regional source conflict retained, not borrowed from A7 Touch BT. Microlife DC 6 V, 600 mA adapter optional in guide while French bundle includes it. NiMH cells supported with external charging; no internal charging |
| Design | ||
| Display details | Systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse with battery, IHB/AFib and pressure/classification indicators | Touch display with date/time, memory, start and user-selection controls, separate forward/backward and enter controls. Lock switch prevents accidental activation; side single/triple switch, cuff, USB and DC sockets. IP20 |
| Size | Approximately 96 × 68 × 130 mm (width × height × depth); approximately 240 g excluding batteries; maker lists IP20, without water protection | French non-Bluetooth S-V10-1 guide and product page give 160 × 82 × 35 mm and 312 g including batteries. Global non-Bluetooth support instead gives 157.5 × 105 × 61.5 mm and 415 g including batteries; conflicting regional figures retained without assuming they describe an unannounced revision |
| In the box | UK 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 AA | French maker lists preformed M-L 22–42 cm cuff, USB cable, four AAA alkaline cells, adapter, large textile storage bag and blood-pressure diary. Guide calls adapter optional; regional bundle differences remain qualified |
