Export blood pressure readings from an OMRON monitor
brucine Posted messages 25283 Registration date Status Member Last intervention -
Hello everyone,
I have an OMRON M3 IT blood pressure monitor. Previously, I could export my blood pressure measurements and print them to show my doctor by connecting to "bi-link.omron.com".
But this site has been deleted by Omron because the new blood pressure monitors work via Bluetooth, but mine does not... Therefore, I can no longer export my data.
I contacted OMRON customer service, but there seems to be no solution, apart from of course, buying a new blood pressure monitor... They have not planned any standalone program to install on PC to remedy this.
When I connect it via USB, it does not appear in the file explorer...
My blood pressure readings are stored in the internal memory of the blood pressure monitor, but I don’t see how to retrieve them on PC...
Does any computer whiz have an idea? A solution?
Thank you

Hello @Alain9187 StatusMember.
You say that you can access your files on your PC, you just need to copy/paste them onto your PC and read them, but it all depends on what their extension is, as some files can only be read by specific software.

Hello,
An application has been provided for this, available in both old and new versions, so it doesn't hurt to try.
In principle, if done correctly, it should also include the necessary USB drivers, but it doesn’t specify for which versions of Windows.If the online export via the application is not possible, the M3 is still designed to connect via USB (except maybe now under Windows 11), but it is anyway noted that, without software, extracting the data is a real circus (in raw CSV format that needs to be reprocessed).

Hello,
I'm going to answer a bit off-topic from the question asked.
I think it would be much more interesting for your doctor if you presented a summary table of the results, created in Excel or Word.
You take your measurements by applying the "rule of 3" recommended by doctors: 3 measurements in the morning and 3 measurements in the evening for 3 consecutive days. The measurements are taken after 5 minutes of rest. And you average the results.
You can create a table like this one (here for 2 days instead of 3):
What one conceives clearly is expressed clearly,
And the words to say it come easily.

Hello,
The school notebook is nice too...
Except if it is specifically requested in a particular format, I've encountered a lot of doctors professionally, and I have hardly ever known any who are interested in the computer formats brought by patients (or even created by other healthcare professionals, such as medical imaging CDs): it's a profession where it's fashionable to claim to be allergic to computers and where time is money.Hello,
It's a doctor who advised me to do it this way: rule of 3 and summary table.
The doctor couldn't care less about whether the blood pressure monitor is connected, as he generally uses a manual device and a stethoscope. The only point that interests him is knowing whether the measurement was taken at the finger, wrist, or with a cuff (which gives the most reliable results).

Hello,
up until now, you could print them... there was software on your PC for that..? why can’t you print anymore, I don’t understand why you have to connect to a website from beyond..!! To print on a printer right next to you..
I assume your PC is running Windows..?? and that it doesn’t understand the tables from your device... it’s possible that it’s recognized under Linux or Android..? via your USB port of the OMRON..??
Do you have any information on that..?
Here’s what I found here:
https://omron-healthcare.my.site.com/helpdesk/s/article/How-can-I-export-and-share-my-readings
You can export your data from the History section of the app. To do this, follow the steps below:
a. Tap on the History tab at the bottom of the screen
b. Tap on the Share icon at the top right of the screen
c. If you are a non-premium service user, tap on Standard Report on the next screen. (Do not consider premium or non-premium)
d. Select the type of data you want to share
e. Select the date range for which you want to share the readings
f. Choose the format you need, Excel or PDF
g. Select the "send" option.
h. If you choose to send to another person, select the Send to another option and enter the email address in the displayed Email address field.
i. Tap the Send button to share the reportSo, I assume you can send this table to your email address.
This device is compatible with:
iOS 10 and above. so Apple's
Android 7 and above. Android smartphones..check out this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2YGN3tu4hc
The "Omron Connect" app is available on the Play Store, just install it on your smartphone... it’s free as long as you don’t request a service from OMRON.
Communication is done via BlueTooth...
So in the "Omron Connect" app, you need to find your reader and pair it with your smartphone...
From there, you’ll be able to transfer the file and/or print it.
There you go, I think your issue is solvable without going through the house of God.
