SunTech Medical's Oscar 2 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure
monitor (ABP) monitor has received an A/A rating based upon the
British Hypertension Society (BHS) protocol as reported in the April
2007 issue of Blood Pressure Monitoring (Goodwin et al., 2007).
The independent evaluation was conducted in the United Kingdom by
researchers at James Cook University Hospital. Results showed the
Oscar 2 ambulatory blood pressure monitor received an A grade for both
systolic and diastolic pressures.
Considered the gold standard by many experts worldwide (Pickering
et al., 2006), ambulatory blood pressure monitoring provides a
comprehensive assessment of a patient's blood pressure profile. The
use of an ambulatory blood pressure monitor provides valuable
information on BP variability, overnight dipping and morning surge
that in-clinic and home BP monitoring cannot provide.
The Oscar 2 ambulatory blood pressure monitor is clinically
validated to all three internationally recognized standards: British
Hypertension Society (BHS) (A/A), European Society of Hypertension
(ESH) International Protocol, and the Association for the Advancement
of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) SP10. The sleek, lightweight design
of the Oscar 2 ambulatory blood pressure monitor combined with the
comfort of SunTech's patented Orbit(TM) blood pressure cuff
dramatically increase patient testing compliance. The included AccuWin
Pro(TM) V3 software allows flexible programming of the ABP unit, rapid
analysis of the data, and a customizable printed report. The automated
interpretive summary provides concise and helpful information on BP
averages, overnight dip percentage, and instances of White-coat
syndrome.
