help Microlife CRADLE VSA FAQ
How does the Microlife CRADLE VSA differ from a traditional upper-arm blood pressure cuff?
The CRADLE VSA is worn on the wrist rather than the upper arm, making it more compact and portable for continuous use. It measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure along with heart rate, and transmits those readings via Bluetooth to a paired smartphone app rather than displaying only a single snapshot on a screen.
Can I sync the Microlife CRADLE VSA with my iPhone or Android phone?
Yes, the device pairs via Bluetooth with a smartphone app that logs systolic, diastolic, and heart-rate readings over time. This lets you track trends rather than relying on isolated readings from a standard cuff.
Does the Microlife CRADLE VSA provide continuous 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring?
The CRADLE VSA is designed for continuous measurement while worn, unlike traditional cuffs that take isolated point-in-time readings. However, it is a wrist-worn consumer device and should not be confused with a clinical 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitor prescribed by a physician.
Is the Microlife CRADLE VSA clinically validated for diagnosing hypertension?
Microlife produces clinically validated blood pressure devices, but wrist-worn monitors can be more sensitive to arm positioning than upper-arm cuffs, so alignment at heart level is important for accuracy. You should consult your physician before using any consumer wrist monitor for diagnosis or medication management.
