ABSTRACT
Among the elderly, hypertension remains one of the prevalent health conditions, which requires monitoring and intervention strategies. Nevertheless, regular reporting of blood pressure (BP) from these individuals still poses multiple challenges. However, most people own cell phone and are engaged in phone conversations daily. Here, we propose an adjustable cuffless smartphone attachment (ACSA+) equipped with a PPG sensor for the estimation of BP during phone conversations. ACSA+ can be easily attached to the back of any modern cell phone. ACSA+ will help to continuously collect BP data and store it as a trend line.
