Home medical devices and diagnostics

Health monitoring devices for home use

Most health monitoring devices here let a person take a reading without clinical training. Each category page lists the models we carry and the features their makers state, such as memory storage, Bluetooth app syncing or two-user settings.

Blood pressure monitors

Our blood pressure monitors include automatic upper-arm and wrist models from Omron and Rossmax, replacement cuffs in several sizes, and manual sphygmomanometers for clinical users. Healthdirect advises using an automatic monitor with an upper-arm cuff that fits you properly, so check your arm size against the cuff range before you buy.

Thermometers

The thermometers range covers digital stick thermometers for oral, underarm or rectal use, ear thermometers, and infrared models that read from the forehead or temple without touching the skin.

Pulse oximeters

A pulse oximeter estimates blood oxygen saturation and pulse rate, usually through a clip on the fingertip. We carry fingertip and handheld pulse oximeters, plus adult, paediatric and neonatal probes for compatible Rossmax handheld units.

Respiratory equipment and clinical stands

Our respiratory equipment includes compressor, piston and mesh nebulisers, nebuliser masks and tubing, a spacer for puffers, a peak flow meter, and two oxygen concentrators. Oxygen and nebulised medicines are prescribed, so use them as your doctor directs.

For care settings, the IV poles and stands range covers mobile stands with two or four hooks, a pole that clamps to a wheelchair, and clamp-on baskets, glove dispensers and holders.

More in this section

This section also holds a blood glucose monitoring system, digital weighing scales including chair and bariatric scales, face masks, a Rossmax health station, and spare leads, electrode pads and chargers for TENS and pelvic floor devices. If you are not sure what each device measures, our guide to diagnostic medical devices explains the common types.

Choosing the right device

• Who will use it: large displays and one-button operation suit people with low vision or limited dexterity.
• Where it will be used: battery-powered and pocket-sized models suit travel, while mains-powered units suit a bedside or clinic.
• How readings are kept: some models store readings for two users or sync to a phone app, which helps when sharing results with a doctor.
• Accessories: cuffs, probes, masks and filters are often model-specific, so match the product name and code before ordering.
