📋 Product Specifications

How Omron M1 Basic Works

When you press START/STOP the cuff inflates automatically and the monitor reads the artery's pulsations as it deflates (oscillometric method). IntelliSense sets the inflation level for a quicker, more comfortable reading.

Omron M1 Basic Uses

•    Basic Home Checks: simple one-touch blood pressure and pulse measurement

•    Irregular Heartbeat Alerts: shows an icon when an irregular pulse is detected

•    High Reading and Movement Warnings: flags readings above standard levels and movement during a reading

High blood pressure often has no symptoms: the WHO estimates 1.4 billion adults had hypertension in 2024 and 44% were unaware of it.

Who Should Use Omron M1 Basic

Adults who need a simple, affordable home monitor and log readings themselves. It is Dawa's lowest-priced upper-arm Omron; choose the M3 or M7 for multi-reading memory or two users.

🚫 Limitations and Cautions

It is not a diagnostic tool; do not change medication from home readings alone. Ask a doctor first if you are pregnant or have an arrhythmia. Do not measure on an arm with a drip, dialysis shunt or mastectomy. If your upper arm is larger than 32 cm, choose the M3 or M7 (22-42 cm).

💊 How to Measure Blood Pressure with Omron M1 Basic

1.   Rest: Avoid caffeine, smoking and exercise for 30 minutes, then sit quietly for 5 minutes.

2.   Sit Correctly: Sit upright, back supported, feet flat, with your arm resting so the cuff is at heart level.

3.   Fit the Cuff: Place the cuff on the bare upper arm 1-2 cm above the elbow and use the cuff wrap guide.

4.   Start: Press START/STOP and stay still and silent until the reading finishes.

5.   Record: Note the values, wait 1-2 minutes, take a second reading, and measure at the same times daily.

⚠️ Understanding Your Results

Categories below follow the American Heart Association; the WHO defines hypertension as 140/90 mmHg or higher, and your doctor sets your target.

Above 180/120 mmHg, rest 5 minutes and re-check; seek urgent help if it stays high or you have chest pain, breathlessness, weakness or vision or speech changes.

🏠 Care and Storage
