Why the study?
Does the BPro device accurately measure central systolic blood pressure compared to the SphygmoCor System and invasive measurement in patients undergoing elective cardiac evaluation?
Does the BPro device accurately measure central systolic blood pressure compared to the SphygmoCor System and invasive measurement in patients undergoing elective cardiac evaluation?
Both the BPro and SphygmoCor noninvasive devices show accurate agreement in measuring central systolic blood pressure compared with invasive measurements.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support noninvasive cSBP assessment by BPro or SphygmoCor in cardiac patients; leaves open prospective validation before wider adoption.
