Description
Microlife WatchBP Office ABI Dual-Cuff Blood Pressure Monitor with AFIB Detection, TWIN 200 ABI
Ankle-Brachial Index, AF detection, simultaneous dual-arm IAD - cardiovascular screening device
The Microlife WatchBP Office ABI (TWIN 200 ABI) is a professional cardiovascular screening device that combines dual-cuff blood pressure measurement with Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) assessment and Atrial Fibrillation (AF) detection. It provides fast, easy and accurate ABI assessment to support screening for Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), while simultaneously screening for AF, making it a practical tool for physician offices, cardiology and vascular clinics, and hospitals.
The dual-cuff design measures both arms at the same time to assess the Inter-Arm Difference (IAD), and a conical ankle cuff supports ABI assessment in special patient groups. Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) and Pulse Pressure (PP) are displayed with each reading. Automated Office Blood Pressure Measurement (AOBPM) allows an optional 5-minute countdown before three measurements are taken automatically at one-minute intervals, similar to the method used in the SPRINT trial. Data transfers to a PC through the mini-USB port for review in WatchBP software, which is free to download from the manufacturer's website, and a rechargeable battery pack delivers up to 400-500 measurement cycles after charging.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)?
ABI compares blood pressure at the ankle with blood pressure in the arm. It is a recommended test for screening for Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD).
Does the WatchBP Office ABI detect atrial fibrillation?
Yes. The device screens for Atrial Fibrillation (AF) during measurement.
What is Inter-Arm Difference (IAD) and how does this monitor measure it?
IAD is the difference in blood pressure between the left and right arms. The WatchBP Office ABI uses two cuffs to measure both arms simultaneously, allowing IAD to be assessed in a single measurement.
Why is the ankle cuff conical?
The conical shape supports ABI assessment in special patient groups.
What is AOBPM mode?
Automated Office Blood Pressure Measurement (AOBPM) lets the device run an optional 5-minute countdown, then take 3 measurements automatically at 1-minute intervals, similar to the method used in the SPRINT trial.
Can measurement data be exported?
Yes. Readings transfer to a PC through the mini-USB port and can be reviewed using WatchBP software, which is free to download from the manufacturer's website.
