Oscillometric BP requires cautious interpretation in hyperacute stroke; leaves open accuracy versus intra-arterial monitoring pending validation.
Does noninvasive automatic oscillometric blood pressure measurement accurately reflect intra-arterial blood pressure in hyperacute stroke patients?
Noninvasive oscillometric BP measurements significantly underestimate systolic and overestimate diastolic blood pressure compared to intra-arterial monitoring in acute stroke, especially at higher SBP levels.
Manios et al. (2007) studied this question.
