Background: Hypertension (HTN) is the single greatest cardiovascular risk factor worldwide.
HTN management is usually guided by brachial cuff blood pressure (BP), but questions …

Measurement of the arterial blood pressure (BP) is a time-honored, vital piece of medical
information whose accuracy is seldom questioned. This review identifies the unappreciated …

The original Riva-Rocci method to measure blood pressure (BP) using a cuff at the upper
arm assumed the pressure obtained by this technique was a good proxy for central aortic …

Numerous devices purport to measure central (aortic) blood pressure (BP) as distinct from
conventional brachial BP. This validation study aimed to determine the accuracy of the …

Objectives: This study sought to derive and validate outcome-driven thresholds of central
blood pressure (CBP) for diagnosing hypertension. Background: Current guidelines for …

Objectives: The Vicorder is a new brachial cuff-based device that estimates central blood
pressure (cBP) using a brachial-to-aortic transfer function. The aim of this study was to …

Importance Clinical practice guidelines recommend selecting an appropriately sized cuff
based on mid-arm circumference prior to measuring blood pressure (BP). To our knowledge …

Background: Central aortic blood pressure (cBP) is often promoted to be a superior predictor
of cardiovascular risk compared to brachial blood pressure, and brachial–central pulse …

Background: Many cuffless blood pressure (BP) measuring devices are currently on the
market claiming that they provide accurate BP measurements. These technologies have …

Objective: We propose a calibration-free method and system for cuffless blood pressure (BP)
measurement from superficial arteries. A prototype device with bi-modal probe arrangement …
