Should I choose an aneroid or a digital Welch Allyn blood pressure machine?
Choose digital if you want the monitor to take the reading for you, and aneroid if your clinicians prefer to take readings manually. The Welch Allyn ProBP 2000 is digital and takes a reading in about 20 seconds. Welch Allyn aneroid models, including the DS66 hand aneroid and the 767 desk, wall, and mobile units, are in our Sphygmomanometers range.

Blood Pressure Readings — Choosing the Right Monitor
Accurate Blood Pressure Readings in Clinical Practice
The right monitor depends on the clinical setting and measurement purpose. For GP and specialist practice, professional-grade validated monitors are essential for accurate blood pressure readings across high patient volumes. For home monitoring or patient self-management, upper-arm digital blood pressure devices with memory and averaging functions provide clinically meaningful data without requiring clinical training to operate.
Which cuff size do I need for a Welch Allyn blood pressure monitor?
Choose the cuff to match the patient’s arm. The bladder length should cover about 80% of the arm circumference and the width about 40%. A cuff that is too small or too large will give inaccurate readings. The ProBP 2000 includes an adult size 11 cuff and is validated for Welch Allyn FlexiPort cuff sizes 9 to 13, from child through to thigh. Reusable and soft disposable FlexiPort cuffs are available in our BP Cuffs and Connectors range.
