Notes

Home blood pressure monitors depend on sensors and cuffs that can drift or degrade with use. Repair is usually limited to replacing cuffs or tubing and checking calibration; many units are not designed for deep component repair.

Replace if readings are inconsistent compared with a clinical device, the cuff no longer inflates properly, or the display/buttons fail. Accuracy matters more than longevity here, so if recalibration is not feasible or costs approach the threshold, replacement is the safer choice.
