Amazon Products
In this post, we will create a list of items available on Amazon that could be useful to you. In our blog, we explain the utility of these items and why it’s important to have them at home.
List of products on Amazon:
- Digital thermometers: We recommend those that make direct contact with the skin as infrared sensors tend to provide less accurate readings.
- Automated blood pressure monitors: It’s recommended to choose ones that fit on the upper arm, not the wrist, for more reliable measurements. There are various options, with OMRON still being one of the most common brands. They offer advanced options with Bluetooth, more affordable ones, and models approved by the World Health Organization. There’s a list of which ones can be used and considered valid; you can find it here and here. It’s important that they are validated devices because they allow you to use them at home and trust the measurements without having to verify with a healthcare professional.
- Glucose meter (or blood sugar checking device)
- Oximeters: Available for both children and adults.
- TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation): Used for back pain relief.
