P
Population
509 individuals, including youth ages 13 to 19 years
I
Intervention
Blood pressure measurement using Omron HEM-907XL oscillometric device
C
Comparator
Blood pressure measurement using sphygmomanometer (HgS)
O
Outcome
Validity of blood pressure readings compared to sphygmomanometer using 2002 Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) criteriasurrogate
The Omron HEM-907XL is generally valid for BP measurement according to AAMI criteria, but it underestimates hypertension prevalence and its accuracy decreases at higher BP levels.
