Does inflationary oscillometry provide accurate measurement of blood pressure in pre-eclampsia?
The OMRON-MIT is the only automated oscillometric device that has proven to be accurate for blood pressure measurement in pre-eclampsia according to the BHS protocol in pregnancy. Inflationary oscillometry may correct the error associated with oscillometric devices in pre-eclampsia.
QTc can be underestimated or unreported by the computer analysis. Physicians not only should calculate QTc manually but also examine the actual QTc value displayed on the report before concluding that this parameter is normal, especially in patients who are at risk of QTc prolongation.
