Validation of a Noninvasive Automated Blood Pressure Device

Completed
Conditions
Blood Pressure
Interventions
Device: Blood pressure assessment
Registration Number
NCT03566888
Lead Sponsor
University of Southern California
Brief Summary

The investigator's objective is to validate the novel automated blood pressure device against the requirements set forth in the AAMI_ISO 81060-2:2010 standard in voluntarily consented study participants.

Detailed Description

A new prototype blood pressure cuff has been designed for the higi SH llc health stations. This new cuff accurately captures blood pressure (BP) by emulating a fitted cuff which is used in conjunction with a mercury sphygmomanometer, the accepted gold standard for measuring BP values in most clinical facilities. The cuff is driven by a motor and gearhead to automatically "wrap" the cuff around a user's arm when they initiate a BP test. A BP measurement is then taken by an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) BP module using an algorithm developed for use with a fitted cuff; the same module one would expect to find in a clinic or doctor's office. For the device to pass the AAMI_ISO 81060-2:2010 standard statistical requirements and thus, be considered a valid device for measuring BP it will need to meet the standards criteria 1 and 2.
