Testing a fingertip light sensor for blood pressure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to measure blood pressure by using a light sensor on your fingertip, instead of a traditional arm cuff. It aims to see if this optical method works as well as standard blood pressure checks.

This study tests a new wrist-worn device that measures blood pressure without a cuff. You'll wear the device and have your blood pressure taken with a standard cuff to see how well the new method works.
This study is testing whether a blood pressure monitoring system called Aktiia can help people become aware of high blood pressure early and predict heart risks. It involves using a smartphone and a wrist bracelet (or just the phone's camera) to take blood pressure readings.
This study tests a new cuffless blood pressure device (Hilo Band) in young people aged 14 to 35. It compares the device's readings with a standard 24-hour blood pressure monitor to see if it is accurate and easy to use.
This study compares an optical blood pressure monitor (used like a home device with a smartphone) against standard home blood pressure readings. It’s meant to see if the new device gives accurate results for people with high blood pressure who are not currently on blood pressure medicines.
This study tests a new wearable sensor system that tracks your heart rhythm and blood pressure continuously for 24 hours. It's less bulky than traditional monitors, and the study aims to see if it's easy to use and works well for patients like you.
This trial tests a new, no-contact device called Lifelight that measures your blood pressure just by looking at your face. It compares these readings to the standard cuff method, and you can use it at home for self-monitoring.
