Read our Hypertension research guide →Researchers want to know if smartwatches and wearable devices can measure blood pressure as accurately as traditional hospital equipment. This trial will test two newer blood pressure measurement methods built into wearable devices against the standard upper-arm cuff method and, for intensive care patients, against direct arterial monitoring lines already in place for clinical care.
Currently, doctors rely on traditional upper-arm cuffs or invasive monitoring lines to check blood pressure in hospitals. If smartwatches could measure blood pressure reliably, patients might get more convenient and frequent monitoring, which could help catch dangerous changes faster.

You would wear smartwatch-style blood pressure monitors on your wrist while the research team takes standard blood pressure measurements using an upper-arm cuff or your existing arterial line. Over three consecutive days, you'll have repeated measurements to see how accurate and stable the smartwatch readings are. The whole process happens during your hospital stay—no extra visits needed.
