According to certain inventive techniques, a blood pressure recording device includes at least one blood pressure sensor, a display configured to visually present received data, a wireless transceiver, a memory storing a reminder time, and a processor including a clock. The processor is configured to: receive blood pressure data from the at least one blood pressure sensor; process the blood pressure data to form a systolic reading and a diastolic reading; transmit the systolic reading and the diastolic reading to the display for visual presentation to a user; transmit the systolic reading and the diastolic reading to the wireless transceiver for wireless transmission; retrieve the reminder time from the memory; compare the reminder time to a time of the clock; and generate an alert when the clock time is equal to the reminder time.
