  • 4-150 Osc=oscillometric; Aus=auscultatory.

  • 4-151 Criteria for the fulfilment of the AAMI protocol: mean (SD) difference with auscultatory measurements ⩽5 (⩽8) mm Hg; P/P=passed; F/F=failed; P/F=passed for systolic pressure but failed for diastolic pressure.

  • 4-152 Grades A–D according to the BHS protocol: A, D=best, worst agreement with mercury standard; according to the BHS protocol devices must achieve at least grade B/B.
