Before You Start

Equipment to order before Week 1

A short, vetted list of affordable tools for the program. Each has a Good and a Better option β€” pick whichever fits your budget. The blood-pressure monitor and pulse oximeter feed the Vitals Tracker in your app, so order those first.

Blood pressure monitor β€” with AFib screening

Feeds your in-app Vitals Tracker

A home cuff screens for an irregular rhythm (possible AFib) β€” it does not diagnose one. If it flags an irregular rhythm, bring the reading to your physician.

Good

Microlife BP B3 AFIB
