Core Automatic BP Monitoring Without PC Data Connectivity
The CONTEC08C Basic is the entry-level configuration of the CONTEC08C upper-arm blood pressure monitor, providing accurate oscillometric blood pressure measurement in a straightforward package without the PC communication capability of the standard model. It is designed for clinical settings where data export to computer systems is not required ? including consultation rooms where paper records are used, community health screenings, and home monitoring programmes where the patient reads results directly from the device. The colour LED screen displays systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse rate clearly after each automatic measurement cycle, and the 0 to 297 mmHg measurement range and ?3 mmHg accuracy are consistent with those of the full CONTEC08C model.
199-Group Memory for Sequential Patient Monitoring
Despite its basic designation, the CONTEC08C Basic stores up to 199 groups of measurement data with date and time stamps, providing more than adequate memory for individual patient hypertension monitoring or sequential clinical screening. This data is accessible for review directly on the device display without requiring PC connection. The device operates on four AA batteries or a 5V DC adaptor, supporting both portable use and fixed-station deployment. Optional voice broadcasting allows audible announcement of measurement results.
Cost-Effective BP Monitoring for South African Primary Care
The CONTEC08C Basic is a practical blood pressure monitoring choice for South African primary healthcare clinics, school health services and occupational health programmes where straightforward, accurate measurement is the primary requirement and PC connectivity is not necessary. Its compact form factor, simple operation and large memory make it easy to deploy across diverse clinical settings. Vital Medical supplies the CONTEC08C Basic to South African healthcare providers, offering reliable automatic blood pressure monitoring at an accessible price point for resource-conscious healthcare environments.
