What are the sources and extent of variability in blood pressure measurement using the Dinamap PRO 100 automated oscillometric device?
The Dinamap PRO 100 automated oscillometric device exhibits significant intrinsic inaccuracy, which accounts for the majority (64-82%) of blood pressure measurement variability under study conditions.
Joseph Chang (2003) conducted a cross-sectional in Blood pressure measurement variability (n=60). Dinamap PRO 100 Automated Oscillometric Device was evaluated on Variability, defined as the between-arm difference in blood pressure measurements. The Dinamap PRO 100 automated oscillometric device exhibited intrinsic inaccuracy that accounted for 64-82% of the total systolic and diastolic blood pressure variability under study conditions.
