Implication

These devices meet ESH criteria for self-BP measurement; leaves open need for outcome trials before routine adoption.

Key Points

The aim is to validate four blood pressure devices according to the ESH International Protocol.
Four oscillometric devices were tested for brachial blood pressure measurement.
A total of 33 subjects participated across four studies following ESH protocol.
BP differences were categorized into ≤5 mmHg, ≤10 mmHg, and ≤15 mmHg.
All devices passed validation criteria.
Mean differences: Omron M6 Comfort: -1.8±5.1 mmHg systolic, -0.4±2.8 mmHg diastolic; Omron HEM-7420: 2.5±4.6 mmHg systolic, -1.2±4.3 mmHg diastolic; Withings BP-800: -0.2±5.0 mmHg systolic, 0.4±4.2 mmHg diastolic; Polygreen KP-7670: 3.0±5.3 mmHg systolic, 0.3±5.2 mmHg diastolic.
All devices showed suitable readings for SBPM under ESH guidelines.

Structured PICO

Are the Omron M6 Comfort, Omron HEM-7420, Withings BP-800, and Polygreen KP-7670 devices accurate for self-blood pressure measurement compared to mercury readings?

Population

33 subjects per study (4 separate studies) evaluated according to the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) International Protocol Revision 2010

Intervention

Self-blood pressure measurement using four oscillometric devices: Omron M6 Comfort, Omron HEM-7420, Withings BP-800, and Polygreen KP-7670

Comparator

Observer blood pressure values using mercury readings

Outcome

Difference between observer and device blood pressure valuessurrogate

The Omron M6 Comfort, Omron HEM-7420, Withings BP-800, and Polygreen KP-7670 devices fulfill the ESH International Protocol Revision 2010 requirements and are suitable for self-blood pressure measurement.
