Overview
Released–September 2024
Measuring
TypeUpper armUpper arm
Clinically validated–Yes
Irregular heartbeat detectionYesYes
AFib detection or ECGYesYes
MethodAutomatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement during deflation; first on-sale date not establishedAutomatic oscillometric upper-arm measurement; HEM-7380-E, distinct from older M6 Comfort generations
AccuracyMaker manual specifies display accuracy of ±3 mmHg for systolic and diastolic pressure and ±5% of the displayed pulse value; this specification is distinct from clinical validationMaker's 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 validationBeurer states clinical testing to ISO 81060-2 and suitability during pregnancy; exact independent registry confirmation was not establishedSTRIDE BP approves HEM-7380-E as equivalent to Omron BP760N (HEM-7320-Z), whose blood-pressure studies cover adults, type 2 diabetes and pregnancy/preeclampsia; equivalent-device approval is distinct from a direct test of this exact monitor and from AFib algorithm validation
FeaturesAdvanced arrhythmia indication including possible atrial fibrillation, automatic triple measurement, resting indicator, cuff fit check, classification scale and automatic switch-offScreens pulse waves for possible AFib during a routine measurement, rather than recording an ECG or making a diagnosis; irregular heartbeat, body movement and cuff-wrap indicators. TruRead averages three readings with a selectable interval; morning/evening weekly averages
