Study summary

The study compares H2-BP, a wristband blood pressure monitor, with an auscultatory sphygmomanometer. Both devices are used on the same arm. After confirming wrist and upper arm circumference, H2-BP is operated by one measurer, while the auscultatory sphygmomanometer is simultaneously operated by two other measurers. Each subject undergoes alternating measurements of H2-BP on one wrist and the auscultatory sphygmomanometer on the same arm until three valid measurement pairs are obtained per subject, with a maximum of eight repetitions allowed. The two auscultatory sphygmomanometer measurers operate independently and cannot see each other's measurements during the test. Measurements are repeated for 10 to 30 minutes until three valid blood pressure values are obtained and recorded. Validity assessment variables are derived from the recorded values to evaluate the accuracy of H2-BP.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Test subjects using H2-BP and big ben® Sphygmomanometer

    Blood Pressure Measurement with the H2-BP Electronic Sphygmomanometer (H2-BP) and with aneroid Sphygmomanometer(big ben® Sphygmomanometer).

    Device: H2-BP

Interventions

  • DeviceH2-BP

    The patient will have the test device applied to one wrist to measure blood pressure and the control device applied to the upper arm of the same arm to measure blood pressure. 1. H2-BP: The test device is placed on the wrist and presses a button to start pressurising. When the measurement is complete, the systolic and diastolic blood pressure is displayed on the screen. 2. big ben® Sphygmomanometer: The cuff is placed on the upper arm and the pump is pressed manually to inflate. 2 measurers will measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure by connecting 2 stethoscopes separately to one cuff. Due to the external nature of the study medical device, it is not possible to blind subjects and investigators, so that subjects and measurers are aware of the allocation. Therefore, blinding of subjects and measurers will not be used in this study.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean and Standard Deviation of Differences Between H2-BP Device and Aneroid Sphygmomanometer Measurements.

    Average difference between blood pressure measurements obtained with the test medical device and the comparator. Standard deviation of the difference between blood pressure measurements obtained with the test medical device and the comparator (based on the number of measurements).

    Time frame: serial assessment during 1 day

Secondary outcomes

  1. Standard Deviation of Differences Between H2-BP Device and Aneroid Sphygmomanometer Measurements.

    Standard deviation of the difference in blood pressure measurements between the test device and the comparator (based on the number of participants)

    Time frame: secondary outcome will be out in 1 day

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Apr 2023 to primary completion in Oct 2024, 17 months.

Results were first posted in Mar 2025, 4 months after primary completion.

Of 210 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Hypotension, half reached primary completion within 12 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 6 and three quarters within 22. This study's 17 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 217 studies reached it within 12 months; a quarter within 6 and three quarters within 22.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 3, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
