In vivo evaluation of a novel, wrist-mounted arterial pressure sensing device versus the traditional hand-held tonometer

Highlights • A novel wrist-mounted sensor for arterial tonometry is proposed. • The novel sensor is compared against the traditional hand-held tonometer. • Reproducibility and agreement is evaluated via estimation of augmentation index.
