Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All acutely admitted patients of 18 years & older, with an expected ICU stay of at least 24 hours, in whom arterial line has already been placed for medical reasons.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Contraindication to cuff application/inflation (e.g., arm injuries, burns or wounds)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate the agreement between blood pressure measurements obtained with non-invasive oscillometry (test method) and arterial catheter-derived measurements (reference method).Timepoint: The first measurement will be taken within 48 hours of placement of arterial line.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To compare degree of agreement between two methods separately in patients on high dose vasopressor, low dose vasopressor and patients who are not on vasopressors.Timepoint: All the measurements will be taken within 7 days of inclusion in the study
