Significantly Reduced Blood Pressure Measurement Variability for Both Normotensive and Hypertensive Subjects: Effect of Polynomial Curve Fitting of Oscillometric Pulses
Table 3
Mean within-subject variabilities of SBP, MAP, and DBP measured from different techniques, separately for both the normotensive and hypertensive groups. The measurement variability was calculated from the SD of the three repeated measurements (in mmHg) and also expressed as a coefficient of variability (CV = 100 × SD/mean, %).
