I have looked at old chats and was always told that Doppler machines were the only accurate measure.

I know practice makes perfect though!</p> <p>We had the predecessor to the VDO and everyone said it was no good so it stayed in its box most of the time. It then went up in smoke so was permanently retired!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/218631?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 07 Jan 2020 15:21:56 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:b789f552-4c67-4529-bcbd-a28824753a5aSarah Keir<p>I&#39;ve seen PetMap used and looks so easy.</p> <p>I think it has to be a balance of easy of use and therefore the frequency it is used and therefore actually doing BP measurements on animals vs some variation with method or differences from Gold Standard. I would go with the former. Doppler is accurate but needs 3 and a half hands to use!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/218622?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 07 Jan 2020 13:52:51 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:e00e832a-7cc3-4eb4-8f06-b136216464b3paolovet<p><span class="tlid-translation translation" lang="en"><span class="" title="">we have evaluated various machines (HDO, Petmap etc) we have finally chosen petmap for quality, ease of use and repeatability.</span></span></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
