Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| For each measurement pair the absolute value of the difference [test device] - [mean investigators auscultatory measurement] is calculated. Each measurement pair is graded as A: Difference within 5 mmHg , B: difference within 10 mmHg and C: difference within 15 mmHg. Depending on the number of readings that fall between pre-specified limits the device is approved yes or no. The International Protocol specifies that 33 patients are necessary for validation. If the Microlife 3BTO-A and / or the OMRON meet the requirements of the International Protocol than use of these devices for blood pressure measurement can be recommended in women with moderate to severe preeclampsia. If requirements are not met than these devices should not be used to diagnose preeclampsia or to initiate treatment or adjust treatment in women with preeclampsia. | — |
