A&D have been a leading provider of medical devices for both home healthcare and healthcare professionals worldwide since we were established in 1977.
The UB-542 Automatic Wrist Monitor benefits from many of the features developed by A&D for professional clinical use including the ability to screen for AFib (Atrial Fibrillation) in a single measurement. Please refer to the clinical paper: Diagnostic accuracy of a new algorithm to detect atrial fibrillation in a home blood pressure monitor for further information.
A clear step towards a healthy lifestyle, the monitor benefits from extremely accurate Oscillometric BP measurement, first developed and patented by A&D back in 1984.
Taking repeatable, accurate readings using the A&D UB-542 Automatic Wrist Monitor is made simple with A&D technology:
A&D World Health Organisation Blood Pressure Indicator.
- A&D first pioneered the simple ‘traffic light’ indicator system for blood pressure monitors in 2003.
- This simple indicator helps the user quickly identify whether their readings are low, normal or high based on the World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines.
The UB-542 is clinically validated to the world recognized European Hypertension Society (ESH) guidelines so the user can have complete confidence in their readings.
The A&D UB-542 also benefits from a large memory function, allowing the recording of up to 90 recordings for two users. It also incorporates the average value feature of the stored data, as well as the WHO Blood pressure classification indictor to allow the users to better control their management programs.
It also boasts A&D’s unique technology for Irregular Heartbeat (IHB) and AFib screening/Circadian Rhythm analysis technology, pioneered by A&D in 2001 and now found on most of our range of blood pressure monitors. This A&D ground breaking technology is now used worldwide assisting in the opportunistic detection of arrhythmias – which include Afib (or Atrial Fibrillation).
The Japanese design and reliable quality of the UB-542 allows A&D to offer the user a 5 Year warranty (excluding batteries and Cuff).
