Blood pressure measurement in patients with rate controlled atrial fibrillation using mercury sphygmomanometer and Omron HEM-750CP deice in the clinic setting

We have compared accuracy of blood pressure (BP) readings using manual mercury sphygmomanometer and Omron HEM-750 CP oscillometric device, in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and subjects with sinus rhythm (SR). Our results suggest Omron HEM-750CP can be used in AF patients and importance of multiple readings with mercury sphygmomanometer in the clinic settings.
