Measure BP

High blood pressure is a modifiable cardiovascular disease risk factor and may be tracked with regular measurement. Many blood pressure measurement devices are not validated for accuracy. New wearable technology is convenient, but is often not validated.
People who use home blood pressure measurement devices are invited to participate.
The aim of this study is to document the accuracy of home blood pressure BP devices and a (provided) wearable device. The accuracy results of your home blood pressure device and the wearable device will be compared to ‘gold standard’ 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurement.

As part of this study, you will:

1. have your home blood pressure monitored checked for accuracy and quality
2. receive a 24-hr ambulatory blood pressure monitoring report. This is the medical ‘gold-standard’ for blood pressure measurement
3. Receive a gift card up to $50 for each visit towards travel costs. 

Take part in our research study that is aimed at testing the quality of home blood pressure devices used by Australians.
To be eligible, you must:

1. be 18 years or over and
2. monitor your blood pressure at home using an automated device with a cuff
3. agree to 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring
4. make 2 visits to our research lab at the University of Sydney
