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.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Subjects aged 18 years or older but younger than 80 years

Individuals who voluntarily decide to participate in this clinical trial and provide written consent to the information and consent form

Individuals willing to comply with the clinical trial protocol

Disqualifiers

Subjects who do not consent to the study

Obese individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher (concerns about measurement errors as the standard 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitor cuff may not fit the arm properly)

Patients or volunteers who are pregnant

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • CART BP

    Device

    A ring-type medical device worn by the subject that non-invasively measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure, as well as pulse rate.

  • sphygmomanometer

    Device

    Blood pressure measurement method utilizing a two-headed stethoscope, allowing two observers to simultaneously hear the Korotkoff sounds.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

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.
