erbert Tomlinson strung 14 feet piano in a room rope lengths and assured them with large hooks to blocks of wood (1). Cables with a small piece of copper in one end and some cables in a Wheatsone wire was connected bridge on the other arrangement. Using a system of weights that stretched wires and measured resistance to the passage of electric current. Several conclusions were reached, an important is that the increase in the resistance of the thread is proportional to the strength of stretching. Tomlinson had created tension prompt first, although a small-scale quite impractical. Taking into account electricity was still in its infancy, not is surprising that was many years before they found tension prompt a commercial application.

LifeSource UA 787EJ Quick Response Auto Inflate Blood Pressure Monitor with Easy Fit Cuff, Pressure Rating Indicator and AC Adapter Seems to be Accurate
 
Review Date: January 19, 2006
Reviewer: James Krebs, Gautier, MS
I've had it for one day and it seems to be accurate. I calibrated the UA-787EJ against the manual setup (stethiscope, gauge and cuff) that I purchased last week and the readings are consistant. I read the first review that stated their disatisfaction b/c the readings were "high". I would recommend calibrating the unit yourself and if it is off, return it for another or a refund.

For the last week I've tested several monitors in the local stores (Omron, ReliOn, LifeSource) and I felt that all of them reported low BP readings. I even ordered one that was very eratic in its readings but was always 10 to 12 points lower than the readings taken w/a stethiscope (sometimes I used the BP machine at Wal-Mart, which seemed to be consistent). I returned it for a refund.

I work at a hospital, and a co-worker used the new UA-787EJ this morning, found that his blood pressure was very high, went down to ER and indeed it was extremely high. If you have doubts about the accuracy, I suggest purchasing the manual steth., gauge and cuff to do your own calibartion. It was the only way I could be confident the automatic unit was accurate and reliable. The manual setup only costs about $16.00 from Wal-Mart (maybe less from Amazon) and taking your BP is easy.
