Testing a new water-based blood pressure cuff
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new, very accurate blood pressure cuff that uses water to get a better reading. It is for adults who already need a standard blood pressure cuff and an arterial line as part of their hospital care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You need a blood pressure cuff and an arterial line (a thin tube in an artery) as part of your care.
- You are not in an emergency surgery or have both arms tucked in during surgery.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Your upper arm size is between 7.5 and 17 inches (19 to 43 cm).

This study compares a cuff-less wrist blood pressure device to the usual arm cuff. You may be able to help test whether the wrist device reads blood pressure accurately and safely.
This study tests whether a noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) cuff gives accurate readings in people being cared for in intensive care or the operating room. It will compare the cuff’s numbers to blood pressure measured through an arterial line in different patient groups.
This trial tests a new upper-arm cuff that may measure your heart's blood flow without needing an extra tube in your heart. If you already need a special heart catheter and a wrist arterial line, this study will see if the cuff works just as well.
This study tests how well a new blood pressure cuff measures blood pressure compared to a standard arterial line. If you already have an arterial line as part of your care, you may be able to help us see if the cuff is accurate.
This study tests a new automatic blood pressure cuff that may work as well as the standard invasive blood pressure monitor. It is for adults in the operating room, recovery room, or intensive care unit who already have an arterial line.
This study tests a new wristband that measures blood pressure without a cuff. It compares the device to a 24-hour blood pressure monitor to see if it works well in people with normal, low, or high blood pressure.
