Comparing a new wrist blood pressure monitor with the standard method
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares a new light-based wrist monitor (worn for 24 hours) with a standard blood pressure monitor to see if the new device gives accurate readings. The results could help people track their blood pressure more comfortably at home.
