Blood pressure monitor with EKG available for pre-order


The new Complete blood pressure monitor with EKG capability from Omron Healthcare, in partnership with AliveCor, is now available for preorder in the U.S. on Omron’s website. Users of Complete will be able to monitor their blood pressure and EKG readings at home using a single device.

“Millions of Americans are living with Afib and a stroke risk that is five times higher than average, and many others may not know they have this condition since it is difficult to diagnose,” said Ranndy Kellogg, president and CEO of Omron Healthcare, Inc. “Recent studies predict that the number of individuals with Afib could reach epidemic levels as a result of the growing aging Baby Boomer population. Monitoring this condition and the risk it carries is part of our Going for Zero mission. That's why Omron developed Complete as an accessible, easy-to-use, at-home solution to provide a more complete heart health picture and greater peace of mind.”

AliveCor is the leader in FDA-cleared personal EKG technology and helped develop Complete with a new algorithm intended to help better detect Afib.

“Irregular heartbeat is unpredictable and can be difficult to detect without regular monitoring,” said Kellogg. “The Omron Complete empowers anyone who suspects they might have arrythmia or has family history of the condition to monitor their status easily at home.”

The iF Design Award for 2019 was given to Complete for its uniqueness, innovation, aesthetic and performance.

Complete will be available on Amazon starting May 1.
