ReliOn® blood pressure monitors are easy to use, accurate and digitally dis-
play full measurement readouts. Our technology is based on the “oscillometric
method” – a noninvasive blood pressure determination. The term “oscilla-
tion” refers to any measure of vibrations caused by the arterial pulse. Our
monitor examines the pulsatile pressure generated by the arterial wall as it
expands and contracts against the cuff with each heartbeat.
The cuff is inflated until the artery is fully blocked. The inflation speed is
maximized and the pressure level is optimized by the device. The monitor
takes measurements while the cuff is both inflating and deflating. This results
in a faster measurement providing greater comfort to the user.
