Table 1.

Procedure for reference and test device BP measurements in same arm sequential validation method.

INITIAL BP MEASUREMENTS*
1. Take reference BP measurement by the 2 observers R0
2. Take test device BP measurement T0
VALIDATION BP MEASUREMENTS FOR ACCURACY EVALUATION
3. Take 1st reference BP measurement by the 2 observers R1
4. Take 1st test device BP measurement T1
5. Take 2nd reference BP measurement by the 2 observers R2
6. Take 2nd test device BP measurement T2
7. Take 3rd reference BP measurement by the 2 observers R3
8. Take 3rd test device BP measurement T3
9. Take 4th reference BP measurement by the 2 observers R4
*

Measurement R0 shall not be used in the evaluation of reference BP distribution and variability criteria. Measurements R0 and T0 shall not be used in the evaluation of the test device accuracy.
