Continuous Blood Pressure Monitoring Is Possible With A Wearable Device
Normal blood pressure monitoring is based on a cuff that cuts off circulation and releases it, measuring the pressure when the blood begins to flow again. This means that it has to be done at certain intervals, and can be affected by other conditions (such as white coat hypertension, in which the hospital environment affects the readings). There is now a wearable device that measures subtle pressure changes in the skin, providing continuous monitoring. Additional details click here.
