What is known about the topic?Hypertension is of increasing relevance in children and adolescentsBlood pressure measurement is difficult, especially in younger individualsWhat this study adds?The study investigated the accuracy of a cuff-less blood pressure (BP) measurement device, SOMNOtouch™ NIBP, in children and adolescents for 24-h measurements, in comparison to a traditional cuff-based device.The experiment involved 90 participants aged between 5 and 17 years old, with both devices worn simultaneously for 24 h.The results indicated that the cuff-less device showed a minor average deviation in BP measurements. The mean deviation for systolic and diastolic BP values was 0.99 mmHg and 3.03 mmHg, respectively.About 25.6% of night-time cuff inflations in traditional devices led to significant arousal reactions.The study concluded that the cuff-less device had a slight measurement deviation and could alleviate issues like nocturnal arousal reactions that are common with cuff-based devices.These findings suggest the potential for broad clinical application of cuff-less BP measurement devices, especially in children and adolescents, to reduce discomfort and improve patient adherence. However, more research is needed to solidify these findings.
