The journey began over half a century ago, with the launch of the first OMRON-branded BPM in 1973, when all blood pressure measurement was conducted at medical facilities. Nowadays, thanks to advances in technology, anyone can easily and accurately measure their own blood pressure at home, and OMRON Healthcare has continued to drive the evolution of blood pressure management to support preventive healthcare, including efforts to detect potentially life-threatening conditions such as atrial fibrillation (AFib) at an early stage.
As a new chapter begins, OMRON Healthcare’s industry-leading devices and digital health platforms continue to transform daily monitoring into a powerful tool for the protection of global health. With distribution in over 130 countries and regions worldwide, OMRON Healthcare is committed to ensuring access to accurate, cost-effective home blood pressure monitors in emerging markets where preventive healthcare resources remain limited, working to reduce health disparities by enabling early detection and intervention in communities most at risk.
"Reaching 400 million units sold is more than a number -- it represents the trust that millions of people place in OMRON Healthcare to support their journey toward longer, healthier lives," said Ayumu Okada, President and CEO, OMRON HEALTHCARE Co., Ltd. "The quality and accuracy of OMRON blood pressure monitors are well recognized by healthcare professionals around the world. We remain dedicated to 'Going for ZERO' vision, aiming to eradicate cerebro-cardiovascular events globally by developing technologies that connect daily life and healthcare, empowering people everywhere to take preventive action. We will continue to promote innovative products, services, and educational efforts to raise awareness of hypertension risks -- not only for those already diagnosed, but also for those who may not yet realize they are at risk."
