Pressure sensing sheath vs. traditional blood pressure monitoring in wrist procedures
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial compares a new pressure-sensing sheath that monitors blood pressure during wrist-artery procedures to the traditional method. It aims to see if the new device works just as well or better, and is for patients who are already scheduled for a planned (not emergency) procedure needing continuous blood pressure monitoring.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are scheduled for a planned procedure through the wrist artery that requires continuous blood pressure monitoring.
- You understand the study and agree to sign a consent form and attend follow-up visits.
- You do not have any conditions that block or prevent using the wrist artery, such as severe bleeding, unstable blood pressure, or severe heart failure.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 40 or less, and you do not have severe clotting problems or major artery blockages.

This study compares measuring blood pressure through an arm artery (radial) versus a leg artery (femoral) during heart surgery that uses a heart-lung machine. The goal is to see which method works better and is safer for patients.
This study compares a new noninvasive blood pressure monitoring method to the standard method (using a small tube in your wrist) during brain aneurysm repair surgery. If you join, you may avoid the need for a wrist artery line.
This trial compares two methods of placing a small tube in an artery in the wrist to monitor blood pressure continuously during robotic urologic surgery. The goal is to see which method gives more stable and accurate readings when your arms are tucked at your sides.
This study tests a new device that measures blood pressure continuously without needing a needle in your artery. If you are having surgery and already need an arterial line, this device might offer a less invasive way to track your blood pressure during the procedure.
This study compares the usual arterial line (a small tube in an artery) to a new non-invasive sensor that tracks blood pressure through the skin. It aims to see if the new sensor works as well during bleeding situations.
This trial tests a device that monitors blood pressure continuously during surgery using a finger cuff, instead of the standard arm cuff that gives readings every few minutes. You may be able to join if you are having surgery and are at higher risk of complications during anesthesia.
