What is wrong with Philips IntelliVue too high NIBP readings?
Over the years, I have taken my BP on several Intellivue monitors, either with M3001 or X2 module.
Almost all readings were terrible, way too high.
Example:
Leaning back in an office chair.
Intellivue MP30 with X2, NIBP "Invasive Reference Mode": 140/68
Stethoscope (manual): 120/82
Omron HBP-1320 (costs 300 €, best Omron): 113/62
CONTEC: 116/69
GE Dash 5000: 118/70
Nihon Kohden 6301: 115/62
Nihon Kohden 2301k: 114/60
Nihon Kohden Vismo: 113/67
This is just one example. Everytime I get an Intellivue reading, no matter on which module or which monitor, it is sky high.
Other example: doing some exercise in the office.
Afterwards, Intellivue MP30: 169/112
Stethoscope 143/86
Can someone explain why that is?
