The Effects of Brachial Arterial Stiffening on The Accuracy of Oscillometric Blood Pressure Measurement: A Computational Model Study

Oscillometric noninvasive blood pressure measurement (ONBPM) is nowadays widely applied in health care. However, ONBPM has been found to exhibit large interindividual variability in accuracy. In the present study, we developed a theoretical model to describe the mechanics of the brachial arterial wa...
