Pregnancy
Approximately 20% of women develop hypertension during pregnancy (Pre-eclampsia or Toxemia) which may affect
pregnancy. Pre-eclampsia, can usually be recognized by a clear increase in blood pressure and high urine protein levels after
20 weeks of gestation. Since many oscillometric devices appeared to be unsuitable for use in pregnancy and Pre-eclampsia
health care authorities require that blood pressure monitors used for this vulnerable patient group are specically tested.
The Welch Allyn ProBP 2400 digital blood pressure monitor has successfully passed this validation and therefore may be
recommended for use during pregnancy and Pre-eclampsia.
