Many are deliberately set to OVERESTIMATE BP, thus they should be considered a screening tool.
So if your BP is A-OK your very likely GTG, if elevated, the BP should be repeated in a specified health care facility. (Of course this is all contingent on the individual using them correctly AND averaging THREE BP measurements at least 5 min apart, IMO)
Yea I know what a pain in the arse, but I betcha it's shorter than the amount of time you will spend waiting at some HCF.
