It directly measures blood pressure by using a volume control technique and could be used for small wearable sensors integrated in a finger-ring. Here we present an innovative art of continuous noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring (CNAP2GO).
Current wearable methods analyzing time components (e.g., pulse transit time) still lack clinical accuracy, whereas existing technologies for direct blood pressure measurement are too bulky. Wearable sensors to continuously measure blood pressure and derived cardiovascular variables have the potential to revolutionize patient monitoring.
