SHERIDAN, WYOMING – November 20, 2021 – According to the German Hypertension Society, high blood pressure is the number one risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. In Germany, roughly one in three adults experiences hypertension – amongst those over 70, this is actually three in four people. One difficulty is that hypertension is generally not recognisable through specific symptoms. Therefore, regular self-monitoring is recommended. Beurer has added a new wrist blood pressure monitor with innovative functions for precise measurement to its range.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – November 20, 2021 – Cardiovascular diseases are among the most common causes of death. What is dangerous is that the symptoms of high blood pressure or cardiac arrhythmia often go unnoticed for a long time. This makes regular monitoring of vital signs all the more important since cardiac arrhythmia, such as the feared atrial fibrillation, can be a sign of serious cardiovascular disease. With the new BM 96 Cardio, blood pressure and heart rhythm – the two most important parameters of heart health – can be checked at the push of a button. The practical 2-in-1 device makes it possible to measure the values at home and is suitable for reliable long-term observation.
