Comparison

Prototype wrist pulse acquisition device vs SphygmoCor

Design

Device prototype development and validation study

Authors

Discussion

May enable affordable pulse wave analysis; leaves open prospective clinical validation before adoption.

Population

58 subjects (31 male, 27 female, mean age 23.6 years)

Intervention

Prototype of a wrist pulse acquisition device with three-dimensional pulse image (3DPI) using array sensors

Comparator

SphygmoCor (model EM3)

Outcome

Correlation of pulse waveform and peripheral augmented index (pAI) with SphygmoCor, and measurement repeatabilitysurrogate

A novel 3D radial pulse acquisition prototype provides reliable pulse wave analysis comparable to commercial devices like SphygmoCor.

Luo et al. (2019) studied this question.
