I bought this product and just realized that doesn't include stethoscope. In order to measure, should I buy another one stethoscope?

Yes. To take a blood pressure you need both the cuff and a stethoscope. For only taking blood pressure An expensive one is not required. After you get it have someone teach you the proper method of taking blood pressure. Good luck.

I like this stethoscope. Anything you get with the littman name will be high quality, the difference from the higher priced models is that this is not cardiac specific. It is a general stethoscope. There is no loss of sound identification. You can still hear s1-s2, lung sounds, bruits, murmurs, bowel sounds, and the like.

It has a little heart that shows your pulse, if you watch it carefully, you could catch irregularites IF they were not hidden like extened q-r length or s-t segments. Basically it would show only the regularity of the beat, which you could get just as well if not better taking your own pulse and feeling for any skipped or fast beats. I would buy a stethoscope, which they have here on Amazon at very reasonable prices. I used to be an EMT and EKG Tech. I got both on this site and am very happy with the quality and professionalism they show.

I like mine. Use the stethoscope at work in the hospital and have the cuff at home for use with another stethoscope

Only cardiochek PA (professional) can provide a reading for all three with one finger stick. The one I currently have, requires a separate finger stick for every one of them. In terms of FDA, I am not really sure.

Possibly. Quality of the stethoscope matters greatly. Make sure the tips are the right size for the ears: small, medium, or large.

Not sure what you mean. Are you buying this new or used? If you are really concerned, buy new tubing, breast shields, membranes, and valves.

Just called and spoke with A&D makers of the Life Source 853 and the rep said it is designed for Medium and Large cuffs only. That if I needed a Small cuff I would need a different blood pressure monitor. I was hoping it took a Small. Darn, looks like I'm purchasing a new blood pressure monitor that takes a small cuff.

The stevia extract powder does not come with a measuring utensil of any kind. It is important not to confuse the packets with the powder.

I returned the otoscope as most of the ones I found in medical school didn't fit. I'm not sure about that. Sorry.

There should be a meter which is pictured on the box. I think one disk that has 10 test strips and the tester and some lancets that go in the tester.

It depends on what lancing device you use. My last One Touch meter came without a lancing device. In general, lancets are pretty generic. I personally like the one-touch branded lancets (LifeScan) because the needle protector is like a cup or cap that fits right over the lancing needle, instead of a disk like some of the lancets. (If you order test strips some sellers will give you lancing needles, but they always seem to be the ones with the disks on the needle.) I remove the old lancet and put the new lancet in the device and remove the cap and put it on the old lancet and dispose of it in my sharps container. (I only change twice a week or if I let someone else use my lancing device.) I don't cap the lancet while it's in the device. I don't feel changing it every poke is worth the time and only a couple of times a year does my finger hurt and it's more likely where on the finger I poke it or if I didn't clean my finger enough first, rather than infections on the needle (except if I poke a not-well-cleaned finger and the next one transmits from the dirty finger to an otherwise clean finger and infects it.

You get the "Contour next EZ", a cheap case, a Microlet2 and about 10 lancets. Probably included a few test strips, but, I don't remember. At any rate you should but additional test strips. These are "Contour Next" strips. I think the device is a little more accurate than my previous one. The strips are also slightly more expensive. Good Luck

The smaller cuff comes with it. You would have to purchase the larger cuff seperately.

Depends, you need to find the product that comes with a strap and a cardiac monitor, because you can only buy the clock.

I am surprised that there is no chart, what is the use of measuring when you don't have a size chart to refer to?

I ordered the two I did by mistake. And no, I just looked,the device is not in there. Neither were any sample Lancets. In others that I have ordered the box has been complete. They give you a few Lancets so that you can get started but these last two were just the system. I will have to pay closer attention to what I am ordering the next time. I actually already had an extra box and now I have three. The systems last a long time though and it is not necessary to have but maybe one extra for an emergency. I hope this was helpful.
