About this study

Official title: Accuracy of the RIVA Digital Blood Pressure Measurement App After Initial Calibration and After 24 Hours in a General Population - a Pilot Study

The aim of this pilot study is to test the accuracy of the RIVA Digital Blood Pressure Measurement App with and without initial calibration. Additionally, accuracy of the Blood Pressure Measurement 24 hours after calibration will also be tested.

Read the detailed description

Conventional blood pressure measurements (BPM) using a cuff-based device are actually gold standard of BPM in clinical practice. Due to availability and patient comfort, the number of such BPM is limited. Considering the large number of people using smartphones, app-based measurements and screening procedures have the potential to increase the availability of BPM and improve blood pressure control, but a prerequisite of the use of these alternative BPM methods is accuracy.

The aim of this pilot study is to test the accuracy of the RIVA Digital Blood Pressure Measurement App with and without initial calibration. Additionally, accuracy of the BPM 24 hours after calibration will also be tested.

Before mounting the 24h-Blood Pressure (BP) monitor, a set of 11 BPM will be taken, starting with a conventional BPM using a Welch Allyn Connex® Spot Monitor, then alternating to the app, leading to 6 possible pairs of comparison. The next day, without another calibration of the app, we will take another 3 pairs of comparison (7 alternating measurements, starting with a conventional measurement). Examinators are blinded for the results of the app measurements. The app automatically sends the data of the BPM to RIVA Digital, where the results measured by the app will be processed. The staff of RIVA Digital are blinded to the conventional BPM results.

Number of Participants: 50 consecutive patients will be included in the study.

Statistical analyses: Both BPM procedures are analyzed for correlation and accuracy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Blood Pressure, run by CSEM Centre Suisse d'Electronique et de Microtechnique SA - Recherche et Developpement at 1 site in Switzerland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Switzerland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Data statistical analysis (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Oct 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
