A member asked:
My brand name automatic blood pressure cuff monitor is 10 years old. have only used it maybe 50 times total. can it be smart to replace it now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe/not: The technology of these products has changed some but not enough to require replacement. If you can take this with you to a doc visit & it's readings correlate well with that they get at the office I see no reason to discard it. Fresh batteries is usually all these need to work well.
