Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The chief parameter we will be studying is the difference in average systolic blood pressure (in mmHg), defined as the mean systolic blood pressure measured with the self-initiated method compared to the mean systolic blood pressure measured with the fully-automated method.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Secondary parameters we will study are: - The difference in average diastolic blood pressure (in mmHg), defined as the mean diastolic blood pressure measured with the self-initiated method compared to the mean diastolic blood pressure measured with the fully-automated method; - The difference in average heartrate (in beats/minute).	—
