Researchers validated a novel wearable ultrasound blood pressure (BP) sensor, confirming its accuracy and safety across diverse clinical settings. This non-invasive sensor offers continuous, reliable BP monitoring, maintaining calibration for up to one year and adapting to various patient conditions.
A recent study published in the journal Nature Biomedical Engineering discusses the results of validation studies assessing the accuracy of a novel wearable blood pressure (BP) sensor in clinical settings.
Current methods for BP measurement
The sphygmomanometer, the most frequently used tool to measure BP, uses an inflatable upper arm cuff and measures BP over the brachial artery. This tool provides separate measurements for diastolic and systolic BP that are isolated from each other by the time needed for each...
