Industry: Retail

Press Release Summary: The British Hypertension Society website carries a list of
all the blood pressure monitors that they have been issued with validation and at
the First Aid Warehouse we only stock blood pressure monitors from manufacturers who
have products validated by the BHS, the manufacturers being A&D, Microlife and
Omron.

Press Release Body: One of the most distinguishing features about any blood pressure
monitor is whether or not it is BHS validated
There are many blood pressure monitors available in the market-place today and all
come with a variety of recommended retail pricing. So how do you know which is the
right one for you? It's not easy. Some offer one-cuff-fits-all packages, others have
memory facilities while some have a large display screen. Given the seemingly
endless choice, how do you differentiate between say a £10 blood pressure monitor or
one priced at £40 or more?

Perhaps one of the most distinguishing features about any blood pressure monitor is
whether or not it is BHS validated. By this we don't mean validated by the famous
high street chain British Home Stores, but by the British Hypertension Society.

The BHS provides a medical and scientific research forum to enable the sharing of
cutting-edge research in order to understand the origin of high blood pressure and
improve its treatment. As their website states, "The British Hypertension Society
has a track record of producing internationally renowned guidelines for the
management of hypertension which are widely adopted in primary care in the UK and
elsewhere."

As part of their increasing engagement in improving blood pressure measurement, the
British Hypertension Society is undertaking active validation of new blood pressure
devices for the measurement of blood pressure.

The British Hypertension Society website carries a list of all the blood pressure
monitors that they have been issued with validation and at the First Aid Warehouse
we only stock blood pressure monitors from manufacturers who have products validated
by the BHS, the manufacturers being A&D, Microlife and Omron.

A list of the blood pressure monitors that carry BHS validation and that are listed
on the official BHS web site, which are stocked by the First Aid Warehouse are as
follows:
