Accurate measurement of blood pressure is critically important in guiding clinical decisions on hypertension and is used worldwide for cardiovascular risk management.

We will share the results of our research, as well as resources to help improve health outcomes by accurately monitoring blood pressure in the home. This is especially important now when the COVID-19 crisis means more people are measuring their own blood pressure. It is also crucial that we do not neglect other areas of our health during the ongoing pandemic.
