Method
Method	Automatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation. Exact UK item 60493, EAN 4211125604936; manual model BM 23, technical type BM 25. Range tile and SEO title use BM 25, but active product heading, photos, datasheet and instructions identify BM 23. First-sale date unresolved	Automatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement; HEM-7146-E, distinct from HEM-7188-LE. First retail sale date unresolved; manual publication dates are not substituted
Accuracy
Accuracy	Manual display accuracy ±3 mmHg for systolic and diastolic pressure and ±5% for pulse; systolic range 50–280 mmHg, diastolic 30–200 mmHg and pulse 40–199 beats/minute. Maximum cuff pressure 300 mmHg is separate	Maker pressure accuracy ±3 mmHg and pulse accuracy ±5% of displayed reading; systolic range 60–260 mmHg, diastolic 40–215 mmHg and pulse 40–180 beats/minute
Clinical validation
Clinical validation	Current manual claims clinical testing to ISO 81060-2. Medaval lists a Stride BP derivative recommendation based on equivalence to BM 28 via Globalcare GCE603, but says unpublished equivalence results cannot be verified to MDR requirements. Independently established exact-device validation remains unresolved; headline flag omitted	STRIDE BP lists this exact model for adult home use by approved equivalence to Omron HEM-9200T; this is not a separately published exact-model validation trial. Maker manual cites an 85-subject EN ISO 81060-2:2014 investigation, excluding pregnant and pre-eclamptic patients and compliance with 2019+A1:2020. Blood pressure approval does not establish diagnostic accuracy of rhythm indicators; Medaval does not independently endorse the unpublished equivalence evidence under MDR requirements
Features
Features	Irregular-heartbeat warning, coloured classification scale, electronic cuff-position check, automatic switch-off and battery indicator. No ECG, dedicated AFib screening, resting indicator or voice output	Irregular-heartbeat, body-movement, cuff-wrap and high-blood-pressure indicators. No AFib screening, ECG recording or automatic averaging. The maker web page's generic BPM & ECG category label is not an ECG capability

Cuff
Cuff	Supplied universal cuff for 22–42 cm upper-arm circumference, replacement item 110.031; conventional hook-and-loop cuff rather than easyClip or easyLock	Included HEM-RML31 soft cuff fits 22–42 cm arms; approximately 145 × 594 mm, 750 mm air tube and 170 g. Other compatible cuffs are optional, rather than part of the included cuff range

Memory
Memory	No stored reading history, user profiles, date/time or calculated averages established by the product table or complete device operation section. Manual's isolated statement about resetting date/time and retaining saved measurements conflicts with those sections; not treated as an implemented feature	One user, up to 30 readings; replacing batteries preserves stored readings
App
App	No Bluetooth connection from the monitor. Scan & Save captures the display with a smartphone camera into beurer HealthManager Pro rather than automatically transmitting measurements	No Bluetooth or OMRON connect transfer
Power
Power	Four 1.5 V LR03 AAA batteries included; manual approximately 300 measurements depending on blood pressure and inflation pressure. USB-C input supports optional 5 V DC / 1 A mains operation, not battery charging or a demonstrated data connection. Manual lists EU adapter 072.78 and UK adapter 072.79; remove batteries for mains operation	Four AA batteries or optional compatible AC adapter; DC 6 V, 4 W. Approximately 500 measurements with new alkaline batteries and the included cuff, depending on batteries and cuff
