Official title: Non-Invasive Blood Pressure Validation Study

Run by Philips Clinical & Medical Affairs Global · NCT05673408 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing a new non-invasive blood pressure device to see if it gives accurate readings compared to the standard invasive method in critical care patients of all ages.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include patients admitted to intensive care units or operating rooms who require blood pressure monitoring and have an indication for both NIBP cuff and radial arterial line.

Probably not a fit

Patients who may not benefit include those with anatomical conditions preventing proper placement of the study device or those with specific cardiac conditions that could interfere with accurate measurements.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to evaluate the validity of the Philips non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) system by comparing its measurements to those obtained from an invasive radial arterial line in critical care settings. It will involve multiple centers and will assess various age groups, including neonates, children, and adults, to establish equivalence with the gold standard arterial line. The study will collect data from a predefined number of subjects and data points to ensure robust results.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a reliable non-invasive method for monitoring blood pressure in critical care patients, potentially improving patient comfort and safety.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown success in validating non-invasive blood pressure monitoring technologies, suggesting that this approach is promising and not entirely novel.
