Device Manual:
Description:
The Hello Heart UA-651BLE-HH 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:
There appears to be no peer-reviewed clinical validation information available on the technology used in the Hello Heart UA-651BLE-HH to measure blood pressure. However, this device appears to be very similar to a validated device by the same manufacturer or a device within a family of equivalent devices, but equivalence needs to be proven according to a protocol compliant with (EU) 2017/745 and MEDDEV 2.7/1 rev 4.
Recommendations:

Although equivalence to another device is claimed, this has not been tested to MDR requirements. |
