The purpose of this study is to demonstrate equivalency of the GE Healthcare B40 Patient Monitor noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) parameter compared to the reference device.
Automated non-invasive blood pressure devices have a long history. These devices first made their appearance in the mid-1970's. Since that time, there have been many improvements in the performance of these devices. Specifically, when making changes to the algorithms that control these devices, the goals are: to improve accuracy and precision in the blood pressure (BP) estimates, to reduce the time needed to determine the BP estimates, to increase comfort for the patient, and to work through artifacts and arrhythmias that are often present in the clinical environment. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate equivalency of the GE Healthcare B40 Patient Monitor noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) parameter compared to the reference device.

Simultaneous blood pressure reading on the Investigational B40 patient monitor and DINAMAP PRO1000 patient monitor
Clinimark
Louisville, Colorado, United States
Difference Between the B40 Monitor and Reference Device DINAMAP PRO1000 on NIBP Measurements
The primary endpoints are the difference in systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressure values between the B40 Monitor and PRO1000. The mean of the difference should be no more than 5mmHg and the standard deviation of the difference should be no more than 8mmHg per the AAMI SP-10 standard.
Time frame: End of each blood pressure reading
