Product Description
Panasonic wrist blood pressure monitor with 3-color confirmation systemAmazon.com Product Description
The Panasonic EW3039S Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor with Irregular Pulse Detection lets you measure your blood pressure whenever and wherever you wish. It’s ideal for anyone who wants or needs to keep careful track of their blood pressure over a period of time. You can trust Panasonic Wellness products to help you monitor your physical health in the comfort of your own home. Their range of blood pressure monitors are among the most popular on the market because they’re reliable, easy-to-use, and accurate.

The Panasonic EW3039S Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor offers:
  • Digital filter technology.
  • One-touch auto inflate.
  • Automatic memory of 90 readings.
  • Large digital LCD display.

If the EW3039S detects an irregular pulse, an icon will warn you of potential inaccuracy. View larger.

Easy to Use
Just wrap the cuff around your wrist, and with just one touch of the On/Off Start button, the monitor auto inflates for quick, easy measurements. An automatic memory feature allows two people to capture 90 readings each for a total of 180 readings. Each person can save readings in order to track them over time to observe trends.

The large LCD panel shows both blood pressure readings and pulse rate simultaneously. If the unit detects an irregular pulse, it will display an icon, indicating that the reading should be retaken as it is inaccurate. The same thing will happen if the device detects movement during the reading.

An easy to understand three-color light system makes it easy for you to understand what your reading is and whether it falls in the Hypertension, Prehypertension or Normal range.

The Panasonic EW3039S Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor runs on two AA Alkaline batteries which are included.

How it Works
The DFT (Digital Filter Technology) uses a sensor to detect and isolate only the essential pulse oscillation, which helps eliminate other noise factors and leads to quick and reliable measurements. This also helps avoid over-tightening of the cuff. The monitor lights up if you are moving during a reading, alerting you to the fact that your reading will not proceed unless you stop moving. The automatic memory feature allows you to capture save readings for two different individuals, making it easy to keep track of your results.

    I’m unsure about this product. It rates both my husband and me as having very high blood pressure. Neither of us has had such high scores in the past. Until one of us sees the doctor to compare, I am withholding a positive rating.

    Easy to use, and accurate. Great for 2 people to track BP. Would suggest to those that are having issues with cuff, to go through directions again. This is a wonderful little cuff.

    Great unit, what else can I say. I am a big fan of Panasonic small electronic items — shavers, cordless phones, and now health monitors.

    I’ve owned the Panasonic wrist BP monitor for 2 years and unfortunately – I haven’t found it to be a very accurate device. Positioning of your arm is critical to getting a good reading – however, I found that an immediate comparison with a cuff type device (upper arm cuff), showed the readings on the Panasonic to be inaccurate by a wide margin. It took me awhile to figure out that the readings were wrong – and it caused me to delay starting BP medicine when I really needed it. I’d reccomend a cuff type model in place of this.

    If you need to monitor blood pressure frequently, consider this unit. It is very simple to operate and allows storage of two sets of data. Readings seem to be accurate – although I have not calibrated the unit against a known standard.
