Table 3 Factors associated with BP differences between test device and observer measurements
From: Validation of an automated home blood pressure measurement device in oldest-old populations
Variables | Estimates | 95% CI |
|---|---|---|
Systolic BP difference | ||
Women | −3.33 | −7.23 to 0.58 |
Age (years) | 0.16 | −0.56 to 0.88 |
Small cuff (vs. standard) | −10.9* | −17.5 to −4.33 |
Arm circumference (cm) | −0.58 | −1.39 to 0.22 |
Observer systolic BP (mmHg) | 0.15 | −0.08 to 0.39 |
Pulse pressure (mmHg) | −0.22 | −0.50 to 0.05 |
Diastolic BP difference | ||
