A blood pressure monitor serves at the same time for measuring and displaying blood pressure values and for determining a risk rate (L, M, H, V) for suffering from a cardiovascular disease for a specific user. The blood pressure monitor comprises in addition to a conventional measuring unit (2) a user input interface (5, 6a, 6b, 14), which allows the user to enter predetermined risk factors. The data relating to the risk factors are stored in memory (7). A calculating unit (8) calculates a risk rate on the basis of the data and of the blood pressure values. The risk rate may be displayed on a display (9, RR). <IMAGE> |
