Summary

A randomized controlled trial compared the clinical outcomes of transported pediatric patients monitored with an oscillometric blood pressure device versus those monitored with a near-continuous, noninvasive blood pressure.

Detailed description

94 transported patients were randomized to a control arm, monitored with a standard oscillometric blood pressure device (Dinamap), or an experimental arm, monitored with a near-continuous, noninvasive blood pressure device (Vasotrac).

Conditions

• Pediatric Patients With SIRS (Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome)

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Continuous blood pressure monitoring using (Dinamap) standard oscillometric blood pressure device	Continuous blood pressure monitoring of patients during med flight to hospital
DEVICE	Standard of care blood pressure monitoring	Patients received the standard of care for blood pressure monitoring while en route to the hospital via med flight.
