Withings BPM Core intelligent blood pressure monitor with ECG and digital stethoscope

The stylish Withings BPM Core upper arm blood pressure monitor with ECG and digital stethoscope is a very extensive and advanced blood pressure monitor from the Withings brand. A major advantage of the BPM Core is that it has no cables and/or hoses. Everything is incorporated into the device. Other advantages are that it not only measures blood pressure, but can also make an ECG and listen to your heart through a digital stethoscope. In addition, the BPM Core can be connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth and WiFi.

The BPM Core is a clinically validated blood pressure monitor. The blood pressure monitor complies with the strict ESH 2010 and AAMI protocols. You can assume that the measurements are reliable when used correctly. The Heart Foundation recommends using a blood pressure monitor that has been clinically validated.

The blood pressure monitor has 1 personal profile with 8 memory locations. This may not seem like much, but because the blood pressure monitor is almost always in contact with your smartphone and synchronizes automatically, this is sufficient. In the Withings Health Mate app you then have an unlimited amount of memory spaces available. In the app you can easily read all measurements and analyze them extensively. The app also offers the option to forward data to, for example, your doctor.

The BPM Core can also perform a 3-fold measurement. The average of 3 measurements in a row gives a more accurate picture of the blood pressure than 1 single measurement. In addition, it is also possible to calculate the average of the last 7 measurements. Other features include a WHO LED indicator, which uses an LED color light to indicate whether blood pressure is normal or elevated, and an irregular heartbeat detector.

The Withings BPM Core can also take an ECG. He does this using 3 sensors. During the ECG, it is immediately checked whether atrial fibrillation (AFib) is present. In addition, the BPM Core has a digital stethoscope that listens extensively to the heart and checks whether heart valve disorders are present.

The blood pressure monitor is equipped with a battery, which can easily be charged using the supplied USB cable. In addition, the BPM Core has an integrated, pre-formed cuff. A preformed cuff is very easy to put on and is comfortable. The cuff is suitable for upper arms in size medium and large. This corresponds to an upper arm circumference between 22 and 42 centimeters.
