Blood Pressure Measurement Accuracy Study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests how accurately a non-invasive blood pressure device measures your pressure compared to a direct measurement from an arterial line (a thin tube in an artery that directly measures pressure). You'll need to be in a hospital or intensive care setting where you already have an arterial line as part of your standard care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have an upper arm or thigh that fits the device's cuff (upper arm: 17–40 cm around; thigh: 38–50 cm around)
- You currently have an arterial line placed (a thin tube in an artery for direct blood pressure measurement)
- You can give written informed consent and stay in the unit for the study procedure
- You do not have circulatory problems causing a significant difference in blood pressure between your arms
- You are stable enough (not in shock or severe distress) to safely participate, and have no skin injuries, deformities, or IV lines that would prevent proper cuff placement

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 non-invasive blood pressure device in babies, children, and teens. It compares the device's readings to those from an arterial line, which is already in place for their medical care. The goal is to see if the device can measure blood pressure accurately without needles.
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 compares blood pressure readings taken from three different places on the legs to the standard arm reading. It aims to see if these leg measurements are reliable, which could be helpful when arm measurements are difficult.
This study tests a new wearable device that measures blood pressure without a cuff. You might be able to join if you are generally healthy, not pregnant, and have no serious heart or kidney problems.
This study checks whether taking blood pressure on a bare arm or over clothing gives different results in the emergency room. It helps doctors know if they can trust measurements taken over a sleeve.
