New cuff to measure blood flow during heart procedures
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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.
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 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 special wireless pressure catheter to see how well the tiny blood vessels in the heart are working. It may help people who have chest pain but don't have major blockages in their main heart arteries.
This study tests a new finger cuff that monitors blood pressure and other heart measurements during surgery or heart procedures, to see if it works as well as current methods.
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.
