Why the study?
Pulse transit time represents a potential approach for cuff-less BP monitoring, but conventional pulse transit times needed comparison regarding their correlation with BP in humans.
Which conventional pulse transit time best correlates with blood pressure changes in human volunteers?

PTT-based cuffless BP monitoring needs larger validation; leaves open optimal waveform selection for reliable estimation.
Which conventional pulse transit time best correlates with blood pressure changes in human volunteers?
Toe pulse arrival time is superior to other conventional pulse transit times, including finger PAT, as a marker of systolic blood pressure changes.
