Primary Outcome
|
| Outcome |
TimePoints |
| Bland-Altman plot analysis will determine the Limits of Agreement (LoA) and their confidence intervals (CI). Agreement is concluded if the confidence intervals lie within the predefined boundary of ±7 mmHg. |
Measured at baseline and again within 4 weeks |

Brief Summary
|
This study aims to check the accuracy and reliability of the photoplethysmography (PPG) based cuffless blood pressure (BP) monitoring band in comparison to the gold standard mercury sphygmomanometer across a spectrum of BP readings, ranging from normotensive to hypertensive levels. The proposed study design is an observational descriptive study to validate the cuffless BP monitoring device against the gold standard Mercury Sphygmomanometer. The study will be coordinated from the Centre for Chronic Disease Control in New Delhi and conducted at the Narayana Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences in Bangalore. The study population will comprise 360 participants aged between 21 and 65 years, with blood pressure levels ranging from normal to pre-hypertension, and stage I and stage II hypertension, ensuring equal representation across these categories.
The procedure involves training 2 observers who will measure BP in a static position in a controlled environment. Follow-up tests will be conducted after 2 days not exceeding 28 days. During these tests, measurements will be obtained using both the BP Band and Mercury Sphygmomanometer, which will be used as a reference. |
