NIBP Cuff Comparison Study

NIBP Cuff Material Comparison Study

The purpose of the study is to compare NIBP cuff materials and their effect on the measurement results.

Non-invasive blood pressure measurement is based on the estimation of blood pressure by using cuffs. Because the accuracy in blood pressure measurement is essential to monitor patients, the reliability of non-invasive sphygmomanometers is required by internationally recognized standards. New NIBP standard ISO 81060-2 AMD2 highlights the impact of cuff materials and construction on NIBP clinical accuracy. This study is designed to gather evidence that different cuffs provide equally comparable NIBP measurement results
