  If your G-Lab Blood Pressure Monitor displays ERROR code 5 (E5), it means the cuff is over inflated, and your blood pressure may be over 300 mmHg. It is recommended to consult your physician immediately.

The G.LAB® Digital Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor (Models: MD2000/MD2010/MD2040/MD2050/MD2001/MD2011/MD2041/MD2051/MD2090) is a non-invasive oscillometric device designed for quick and easy measurement of systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and pulse rate in adults. It is suitable for both home users and healthcare professionals.

Function Description:

The device utilizes an oscillometric method to measure blood pressure and pulse rate. An inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm, and the device automatically inflates and deflates to take a measurement. The measurement results are displayed on an LCD screen and automatically saved to memory. Bluetooth-capable models can transmit measurement results to pre-approved mobile devices.
