Can a new sensor track blood pressure during exercise?
NCT ID NCT05008133
First seen Sep 04, 2026 · Last updated Sep 04, 2026
Summary
This pilot study with 25 healthy volunteers tests a new non-invasive blood pressure sensor against invasive measurements during rest and bicycle exercise in different positions. Researchers also measure how exercise and posture affect the heart's energy delivery to the body, and test computer models that predict heart responses. The goal is to see if the sensor works accurately and to better understand heart and blood vessel function.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Bicycle exercise and a new non-invasive blood pressure sensor
- What this could lead to
- If the sensor proves accurate, it could offer a less invasive way to monitor blood pressure during activity. The study may also improve models that predict how the heart responds to exercise.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small pilot study with 25 healthy volunteers, so results may not apply to patients. The sensor and models are still experimental and need further testing.
