[Validation of simultaneously acquired blood pressure data by statistical coincidence determination of heart rate variability and blood pressure variability].
We report on the comparison of simultaneous non-invasive measurements of finger blood pressure obtained at both hands with two Portapres systems. We investigated the impact of altering the measurement location on heart rate and blood pressure variability (HRV,BPV) parameters. Two 30 minutes recordings were done twice in 21 volunteers swapPing the systems. HRV and BPV parameters meanNN, sdNN, HF/P and Fw-Shannon were determined. Left and right side corresponding parameters were compared by U-test and correlations. Coincidence matrices were analysed by Mahalanobis distance. The minimal total divergence in HRV was 4.8%, in systolic BPV 6.7% and diastolic BPV 12.1%. These estimates recommend those parameters for multi-center studies that are insensitive to the measurement location.
