Beurer BM 53 - Medaval

Description:

The Beurer BM 53 is an automatic blood pressure monitor. The accuracy of its blood pressure measurement technology has yet to be proven to MDR requirements. Blood pressure measurements are taken from the upper arm. It is intended for self-measurement and home use.

Assessment:

The technology used in the Beurer BM 53, to measure blood pressure, has been compared to a clinically validated device, but the results of the equivalence study have not been published and cannot be verified; nor can the protocol be checked for compliance with (EU) 2017/745 and MEDDEV 2.7/1 rev 4.

Recommendations:

	Accuracy Assessment	Recommendation	Basis
BP	Medaval	None	Although equivalence to another device is claimed, this has not been tested to MDR requirements.
BP	DHL (DE)	General use (Latest: 2023)	Manufacturer declaration of equivalence
BP	Stride BP	Self-measurement for adults (Preferred)	Equivalence to the Beurer BM 28 claim without published evidence

Device Family:

Beurer BM 28P, Beurer BM 27P, Beurer BM 28 HSDZ, Beurer BM 53P, Globalcare GCE603P, Hartmann Veroval Compact+ (BPU 26)P
Legend: P Stride Equivalence, Z Almost Certain

Validation Publications for Equivalent Devices:

Note: This is a provisional list, as equivalence according to EU Regulation 2017/745 (e.g. MEDDEV 2.7/1 rev 4) is not proven. Accordingly, these publications are not used in the assessment of star-ratings.
