Study Details
Study Cuffless Blood Pressure
(IRB#: IRB_00162369)
This study is developing a new device to measure blood pressure (how the force of blood goes throughout the body). Normally people measure their blood pressure with an inflatable cuff on their arm. The new device is like a wristwatch with a sensor for blood pressure. People in this study will wear the new device while they exercise in a lab at the University of Utah. Other vital signs will be measured such as body temperature and weight and use an ultrasound machine (a way to see the inside of the body). These will help get more measurements to see if the new device works. The study session will last about 90 minutes.
