Does a smartphone-based wireless blood pressure monitoring system accurately measure blood pressure compared to standard sphygmomanometers in healthy subjects?
A newly developed Bluetooth-enabled smartphone blood pressure monitoring system meets AAMI accuracy criteria when compared to standard devices.
Singh et al. (2016) studied Healthy subjects (n=12). Smartphone-based wireless blood pressure monitoring system vs. OMRON HEM-7111 and mercury sphygmomanometer was evaluated on Accuracy of systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurement. A smartphone-based wireless blood pressure monitoring prototype demonstrated >97% accuracy compared to standard devices, with mean differences of less than 5 mmHg.
