Why the study?
Smartwatches offer advantages for home ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, but their degree of correspondence with conventional equipment needed to be established.
Does a smartwatch accurately measure blood pressure compared to a digital baumanometer in young males at rest and after exercise?
Does a smartwatch accurately measure blood pressure compared to a digital baumanometer in young males at rest and after exercise?
Smartwatches demonstrate good correlation with conventional digital sphygmomanometers for blood pressure measurement in young males, supporting their potential utility for ambulatory monitoring.
The use of smart watches represents an advantage in home monitoring of ambulatory patient blood pressure; but it is necessary to know the degree of correspondence with the conventional equipment for a better control of the blood pressure that is of clinical utility, in the present study the correlation of the values of the blood pressure obtained by a digital baumanometer and by a watch was evaluated. intelligent in young males at rest and after exercise; the results obtained show a good correlation between the measurements obtained by both teams (R2 values greater than 0.7), the cautious use of smart watches is useful for better monitoring of blood pressure and presents advantages such as automatic and digital recording of the values that can be used for ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.
