Important Health Monitoring Tools You should have at home

How many of these do you already have?

1. Blood pressure monitor cuff

This is crucial for determining how your blood pressure changes over time whether you have a history of high blood pressure or take blood pressure medication. Knowing your starting point from measurements taken at home can help you demonstrate to the clinician your progress.

2. Thermometer 

A thermometer is a device that gauges internal temperature of a person. It is suitable for oxter, rectal, and oral measurement. The day when you had to keep the stick under mouth of your children  and refrain from even asking your grandparents about their experiences using a thermometer as youngsters is long gone.

3. Stethoscope


You can listen to your heart, lungs, and many other bodily functions to detect problems early on or to monitor your recovery. If you have heart arrhythmias or other known issues, stethoscopes can help you to know about your health condition.

4. Otoscope

An otoscope is the greatest tool to use if your child is complaining of an earache to help you determine what might be wrong. To get a diagnosis for things like ear infections and the like, you should still take your child to the doctor.

5. pulse oximeter

Pulse oximeters are used to measure the oxygen level or oxygen saturation of the blood. It uses light beams to estimate the oxygen saturation of the blood and the pulse rate. A clip-like device is placed on a body part, such as a finger and uses light to measure how much oxygen is in the blood. Pulse oximeters can be purchased at local stores and easily used at home.

6. Smart Watch

Your watch might be able to monitor your heart rate, count your steps, calculate your calorie burn, evaluate your blood oxygen levels, and even conduct an ECG. It is possible that your watch does not perform as precisely as specialized instruments, However, a smart watch is a great tool for monitoring your health because you can instantly measure each of these measures throughout the day.

Consult your doctor if you are not well, use these tools to make a more informative decision before going to doctor

It is advisable to keep some of these health monitoring tools at home. As we all know some minor illnesses are treatable at home with a home diagnosis. But if you are not feeling well, make sure to see your doctor. After all, qualified, experienced specialists and wellness checkups are irreplaceable.
