Can the MICROLIFE blood pressure monitor be used in a driving ambulance, an airplane or train?

MICROLIFE’s blood pressure monitors apply the ‘oscillometric method’ of detecting the human blood pressure. This method requires quiet conditions. Any vibrations or shaking which appear in a driving ambulance, an aeroplane or train significantly interfere with the detection. As a result you get an error message instead of a reading. So you may have to perform several measurements until you get a result.
