Evaluation of OEM NIBP Technology during Patient Transport as Compared to Propaq LT

In most emergency transport environments, both patients and medical equipment are exposed to unstable circumstances due to the vehicle’s movement and vibration. The noise and motion artifact generated often make it difficult to obtain a successful automated blood pressure reading. To address these complications, SunTech Medical has developed an oscillometric NIBP technology designed specifically for emergency transport applications. We performed a clinical evaluation of this technology and compared it to a recognized market leader for monitoring vital signs during emergency transport.
