ProMedica M-30

A classic mechanical sphygmomanometer from the popular Swiss brand ProMedica, designed for manual blood pressure measurement using the Korotkoff method. This device is of the aneroid type and uses a dial gauge for visual monitoring of cuff pressure, providing high accuracy when proper measurement technique is applied. Such devices are traditionally used in medical institutions due to their reliability and independence from power sources, but they are also suitable for home use by people with basic auscultation skills — listening to the characteristic tones of blood pulsation through a stethoscope as pressure is gradually released from the cuff.

The ProMedica M-30 sphygmomanometer measures systolic and diastolic pressure over a wide range from 0 to 300 mmHg, allowing operation even at extremely high readings. The cuff with a circumference of 22-36 cm is designed for the standard adult build. The key advantages of mechanical models include absolute autonomy without the need for batteries and electricity, a simple construction with minimal parts prone to wear, long service life, and the possibility of professional repair and calibration. The set includes a protective pouch for the storage and transportation of all components — the gauge, cuff, rubber bulb, and connecting tubes.
