Validation of the Hingmed DBP-01P clinical automatic blood pressure monitor provided with wide-range cuff, evaluated in a general population according to the ISO 81060-2:2018 protocol

Abstract

To determine the accuracy of the Hingmed DBP-01P monitor for clinical automatic blood pressure (BP) measurement according to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 81060-2 2018 protocol. The DBP-01P was tested in 85 subjects from the general population (mean age, 69.9 years; 43 men) using a wide-range cuff for arm circumferences from 17 to 42 cm. The mean device–observer difference was 1.32 ± 3.18 mmHg for SBP and 0.78 ± 3.15 mmHg for DBP. These data were in agreement with criterion 1 of the protocol standard requirements (≤5 ± 8 mmHg). Also, criterion 2 was satisfied with the SDs of the 85 participants being well below the maximum values required by the protocol (6.80 and 6.89 mmHg for SBP and DBP pressure, respectively). These data show that the Hingmed BP monitor DBP-01P satisfied the ISO 81060-2:2018 standard requirements for a general population across a wide range of arm sizes using a single wide-range cuff.
