Simple blood pressure cuff may rival gold standard for artery health
NCT ID NCT06836622
First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 10, 2026
Summary
This study compares three methods of measuring pulse wave velocity, a key indicator of artery stiffness and heart disease risk. Researchers will enroll 350 adults with high blood pressure to see if a simple arm-cuff device or a mathematical formula works as well as the standard neck-and-groin test. Participants will wear a 24-hour blood pressure monitor and answer health questions. The goal is to find easier ways to assess cardiovascular risk.
