Summary

To determine the impact of overcuffing (using a too-large cuff) and undercuffing (using a too-small cuff) on initial BP and average BP measurements when using an automated BP device, overall and stratified by appropriate cuff size

To determine if the impact over- or under-cuffing differs based on the following patient characteristics:

1. Hypertensive (≥140/90 based on triplicate measures using appropriately sized cuff) vs. non-hypertensive.
2. Arm circumference (continuous)
3. Obesity status
