Study highlights innovative cuffless blood pressure device that simplifies and improves hypertension management

- By InnoNurse Staff -

High blood pressure, affecting one in two adults, is the leading global risk factor for death, yet only 25% of those affected have it under control.

A study led by Brigham and Women's Hospital has evaluated a cuffless blood pressure monitor using optical sensors for continuous, non-disruptive readings. Published in Frontiers in Medicine, the study suggests such devices could revolutionize hypertension management by providing more frequent readings than traditional methods, aiding diagnosis and treatment adjustments.

Dr. Naomi Fisher highlights that cuffless devices can offer numerous readings throughout the day and night, addressing inaccuracies from occasional readings in clinical settings.

The study involved 5,189 European and UK subjects using a wrist monitor from Aktiia, collecting an average of 29 readings daily. This extensive data allowed for precise hypertension risk assessment using the time-in-target-range (TTR) metric. Traditional methods misclassified 26% to 45% of subjects compared to TTR, which requires frequent measurements achievable with cuffless monitors.

Although the device isn't FDA-approved yet, it has shown promise in Europe and the UK. Fisher emphasizes that cuffless devices could transform blood pressure monitoring and hypertension management by enabling accurate, continuous out-of-office readings.
