Is the Braun BP 2550 (UG) monitor accurate compared to a standard mercury sphygmomanometer for home blood pressure measurement?
Mean Difference: -1.58
The Braun BP 2550 (UG) monitor meets the ESH International Protocol requirements for accuracy and can be reliably used for home blood pressure monitoring.
Nolly et al. (2004) reported a cross-sectional. Braun BP 2550 (UG) monitor vs. Mercury sphygmomanometer was evaluated on Device accuracy according to the ESH International Protocol (MD -1.58 ± 4.84 (systolic) and +2.23 ± 3.84 (diastolic)). The Braun BP 2550 monitor passed the ESH International Protocol validation, with a mean difference against a mercury sphygmomanometer of -1.58 mmHg for systolic and +2.23 mmHg for diastolic.
