Blood pressure check without the squeeze: a camera might do it
NCT ID NCT07739667
First seen Jul 31, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026
Summary
This trial is testing a new device called Vitacam that aims to measure blood pressure simply by analyzing a video of your face, without the need for an inflatable arm cuff. The study will enroll 85 adults to compare the device's readings with standard blood pressure measurements. The goal is to see if the contactless method is accurate enough to be a reliable alternative for blood pressure monitoring.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Contactless blood pressure measurement device using remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) from video
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a cuffless, contactless way to check blood pressure, making monitoring easier and more comfortable.
- What could go wrong
- The device is still in development and must meet strict accuracy standards. It may not be as precise as traditional cuffs, and results from this trial may not apply to all people.
