Measurement of High Blood Pressure Using Boppli
Sponsor: Indiana University
Summary
This study evaluates a new, non-invasive device (Boppli™) that continuously measures blood pressure in newborn infants. The study compares Boppli measurements to standard blood pressure cuff measurements to determine how well the device works and whether it improves identification of high blood pressure in infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). The study also includes follow-up through 1 year of age to understand longer-term outcomes.

Boppli
The Boppli™ device is a non-invasive, wearable blood pressure monitoring system designed for use in neonates and infants. The device consists of a soft sensor band placed on the infant that continuously measures pulse waveforms to estimate blood pressure without the use of cuff inflation. In this study, the device will be applied for up to 72 hours to collect continuous blood pressure data. Measurements obtained from the device will be recorded for research purposes only and will not be used to guide clinical care or medical decision-making.
