Abstract

Background As an alternative to ambulatory 24-h blood pressure monitors, the continuous, non-invasive blood pressure recording using pulse transit time (PTT) was compared with both oscillometric and intra-arterial measurement. Methods In 144 pediatric patients (9.4 +/- 5.2 years) acute blood pressure was determined using three different methods of measurement. In 57 patients (11.4 +/- 4.9 years) of the pediatric normal ward, the blood pressure was simultaneously determined continuously by means of PTT compared to the intermittent oscillometric long-term measurement. In 9 patients (9.8 +/- 6.8 years) of the pediatric intensive care unit with continuous intra-arterial blood pressure measurement, the blood pressure was measured in parallel by means of PTT.
