2.4. MAM technology (Microlife Average Mode)
• «MAM technology» is a new type of concept for optimum reliability in self-measurement of blood

measurements.
• The new system provides reliable values for the doctor and can be used as the basis for reliable
diagnostics and medication therapy for high blood pressure.
A) Why MAM?
• Human blood pressure is not stable
• Scattering of devices
B) Key advantages
Reduction of:
• Device scattering
• Insufficient rest prior to measurement
• Movement artefacts
• Cuff positioning influences
C) Medical benefits
• Improved accuracy
• Reliable patient self-measurement data for the doctor
• Safe hypertension diagnostic
• Reliable therapy control
D) Measurement sequence
• With the full measurement cycles, the total measure-
ment time remains less than 3 minutes, compared to a
single measurement time of 1.5 minute.
• Single results are not displayed.
• Due to the «Data Analysis» result, a 4th measurement
may be applied.
