Seagull S-888HA

Description:

The Seagull S-888HA 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:

While the technology used in the Seagull S-888HA, to measure blood pressure, has been declared as being equivalent to that used in a clinically validated device, no evidence has been published to show that the devices have been compared according to a protocol compliant 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	BIHS (UK and IRL)	Self-measurement (Previous)	Manufacturer declaration of equivalence to the Health & Life HL888HA
BP	ESH (Europe)	Self-measurement	The BIHS recommendation, despite the absence, at the time, of the scientific evidence required by the same authors' criteria.

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.
