Frequently Bought Together
Monitor heart health independently and with confidence using the Paramed Talking Blood Pressure Monitor. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this accessible medical device is specifically engineered to support NDIS participants living with blindness, low vision, or fine motor challenges who find standard medical displays difficult to interpret.
Standard monitors rely entirely on visual feedback, which creates a significant barrier to self-care for visually impaired users. This device removes that barrier via a clear Voice Broadcast function that audibly announces blood pressure results and pulse rate. Combined with an extra-large LCD screen and oversized operation buttons, it ensures that measuring, reading, and understanding vital health data is a stress-free, autonomous process that does not require the presence of a sighted carer.
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
-
Visual Accessibility (Talking Function): The integrated voice guide announces test results aloud, allowing participants who are blind or have low vision to manage their health monitoring routine completely independently.
-
Cognitive & Memory Support: Features a built-in memory that stores up to 120 readings with date stamps. This "external memory" aids participants who struggle to write down or recall data, facilitating accurate reporting to GP’s.
-
Health Safety Monitoring: The automatic Irregular Heartbeat Detector alerts the user to potential arrhythmias during measurement, providing early warning signs that prompt timely medical consultation.
-
Physical Accessibility: Designed with a large, one-touch start button that requires minimal finger strength or dexterity, making it accessible for users with arthritis or tremors.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Audible Voice Readout: clearly speaks the systolic, diastolic, and pulse rate data at the end of the measurement (can be toggled off for silent mode).
-
High-Contrast Display: Features an extra-large LCD screen with oversized digits for users who possess some residual vision.
-
Universal Adjustable Cuff: The 22cm - 40cm cuff fits a wide range of arm sizes, accommodating standard to larger arms comfortably.
-
Arrhythmia Alert: Automatically detects irregular heartbeats, adding an extra layer of cardiac safety monitoring.
-
Dual User Memory: Stores 120 readings (60 per user profile), allowing for long-term tracking of health trends without manual logging.
