Blood pressure monitoring following kidney transplantation in children: a comparison of invasive and noninvasive measurements using Doppler as a benchmark technique.

In children immediately following kidney transplantation, clinically significant disagreement was found between invasive and noninvasive BP measurements. Invasive BP values were significantly higher than those obtained by Doppler. Better agreement was found between NIBP and Doppler. These issues should be considered when interpreting BP measurements in this sensitive patient population.
