Amazon.com Product Description:
Not only does the HEM-790IT Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor utilize Omron's patented IntelliSense technology, but it also features the innovative Comfit Cuff. The ComFit Cuff is pre-formed for a quick and proper fit that is perfect for both medium and large-sized arms (nine to 17 inches). It's easy to apply the cuff to your arm without any assistance -- simply wrap the cuff around your arm and press start. In seconds your blood pressure and pulse are displayed on the large digital panel. Proven time and time again, Omron's IntelliSense technology ensures accurate, clinically-proven, and comfortable readings. And with a 90 memory recall with date and time stamp, you can track your blood pressure and pulse progress as you work towards a healthier lifestyle.

The Omron HEM-790IT delivers accurate, clinically-proven blood pressure readings in the comfort of your own home.

To take an accurate reading, very first position the purple marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm.

Next, place your arm on a table so the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart.

Omron Health Management Software
Take your health to the subsequent level with the included Omron Health Management Software. This PC software provides a blood pressure and pulse graph that lets you see how your values are trending over time. A morning/evening comparison graph tracks your morning and evening systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. You can also view your most common values and identify variations by time frame with the frequency distribution graph. The software is simple to use, and it supports multiple users. With just one click, you can download data via the HEM-790IT's USB connection and see graphically displayed measurements on your computer screen in seconds.

Instructions for Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitors
There are several easy steps to taking your blood pressure with this blood pressure monitor. First of all, avoid eating, smoking, and exercising for at least 30 minutes before taking a measurement. Remove tight-fitting clothing from your upper arm, and sit in a chair with your feet flat on the floor. Slide your left arm through the cuff and position the cuff approximately 0.5-inches above the elbow. On the cuff you'll notice a purple marker; position this marker directly over the artery on the inside of your arm. Next, secure the cuff with the Velcro material. The cuff should make direct contact with your skin, but you should be able to easily fit your index finger between the cuff and your arm.

Place your arm on a table so that the cuff is positioned at the same level as your heart. Rest comfortably in a relaxed environment for at least 15 minutes prior to taking your blood pressure measurement. Once you feel relaxed, simply press the start button and remain still. The cuff will begin to inflate and numbers will appear on the display as the heart symbol flashes. When the measurement is complete, the cuff will deflate, and your blood pressure and pulse rate will display on the screen. If you need to stop the measurement at any time, simply press the on/off button and the monitor will immediately deflate. And remember, always consult your physician for specific information about your blood pressure.

What is IntelliSense?
The IntelliSense monitor inflates the cuff to the ideal level with each use -- you never have to make any adjustments to select an inflation level. This is especially convenient for hypertensive users and for people with certain arrhythmia or heart disorders because their blood pressure is so likely to fluctuate. The biggest advantage of using the IntelliSense technology is a personalized inflation, every time, for maximum comfort.

The Importance of Home Blood Pressure Monitoring
Doctors, diabetes educators, physician assistants, nurses, and other healthcare professionals all recommend home blood pressure monitoring for various reasons. Home monitoring provides your healthcare professionals with better information to understand and manage your high blood pressure. Many types of hypertension can only be detected by monitoring your blood pressure at home, including:

White-coat Hypertension: blood pressure reading is high in your doctor's office but lower at home
Masked Hypertension: blood pressure reading is low in doctor's office but higher at home
Morning Hypertension: blood pressure reading is higher in the morning

Additionally, many factors can affect your blood pressure, including physical exertion, emotional fluctuations, medications, and stress. So having your blood pressure monitored at a pharmacy with an in-store device after you've been shopping or walking around might not provide you with the most accurate measurement. Monitoring your blood pressure at home allows you achieve a relaxed state more easily, and it gives you the flexibility to take your measurements at various times during the day. By keeping track of your home blood pressure readings, you can provide your healthcare professional with a log of your measurements over time. This can help them evaluate the effectiveness or need for medication.

The included Omron Health Management Software provides a blood pressure and pulse graph that lets you see how your values are trending over time. View larger.

- The CUFF wont fit
I purchased this 790IT blood pressure monitor because of its ability to store test information for two people. I was previously using an Omron 705 unit which worked very well but to retrieve one's test data you had to print it out and there was no way to determine who's data was who's. The 790 comes with a companion piece of software that will let me down load my data to my PC. Once the data is on the PC you can review it in several formats, I prefer the graph.
That is the good news now the undesirable side of things. The cuff has a stiff inner liner that makes it into a "U" shape. Both my Wife and I find it very difficult to get the cuff secured properly. This we could probably live with but in addition the unit would ERROR out and stop the test cycle. It took me a while to figure out that the problem was the fact that the cuff was to loose fitting. Even if it is tight if you have your arm laying on anything, like say a pillow, the unit will most likely error.
I have solved the issue for us by using the cuff supplied with the "705" unit. To do this I had to make an adaptor for the inflation hose since not all of their cuffs are compatible. Omron is a great company and I have specified a lot of their products in my engineering but this CUFF is not their best work.

- Excellent
We had a Omron automatic blood pressure monitor for years but it finally died. My wife tends to have high blood pressure so after some investigation I bought the Omron HEM-790IT to replace the old one. It is easy to set up and use but what I particularly like is the feature that allows you to download the data to your computer where it keeps track of the readings by date and time and allows you to print out a graph of the readings for any given time period. It keeps track of readings for two users.

My wife took it to her doctor's office and compared the readings to whatever they use, and they said it was reading a few points high, however, I'm not sure if theirs is calibrated. Anyway, we are very pleased with the unit.

- BP Monitor & Data Downloads for Graphic Interpertation...
Accurate and simply to use. Has a "true value" option that takes three successive readings for an average. Downloads readings into a DB with a software package for generating graphical displays in several different formats. Your doctor will love you!...

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars

- Great machine...one problem
I purchased this machine due to the software that allows you to offload the data to your computer for tracking and giving my doctor a record of my BP. The machine seems to be very accurate...if you get the cuff tight enough when putting it on. The cuff is different than other Omron BP machines I've owned in the past and takes some getting used to. It is not as easy to put on by yourself as previous machines but with some practice it works fine. If you have another user to help with putting on the cuff you will get the most accurate BP readings.
