About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of the CART BP, a medically approved ring-type blood pressure monitor, in comparison to the traditional auscultatory method using a dual-head stethoscope. The comparison is conducted in accordance with the 2023 European Society of Hypertension (ESH) Recommendations, focusing on patients with suspected hypertension or hypotension. The evaluation includes accuracy measurements across various postures and during different exercise periods.

Individuals willing to comply with the clinical trial protocol
Disqualifiers
Subjects who do not consent to the study

Trial design
Single group
Treatments tested in this trial
CART BP
DeviceA ring-type medical device worn by the subject that non-invasively measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure, as well as pulse rate.
sphygmomanometer
DeviceBlood pressure measurement method utilizing a two-headed stethoscope, allowing two observers to simultaneously hear the Korotkoff sounds.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Mean error and standard deviations of differences between CART BP and Reference
The primary outcome measure is the mean error and standard deviation (SD) of the differences between the CART BP device and the reference device. This endpoint is determined based on the European Hypertension Society (ESH) recommendation, which states that the pass criteria are as per International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 81060-2:2018: a mean error within 5 mmHg and an standard deviation within ±8 mmHg.
