For the management of hypertension, cuff-based noninvasive blood pressure (BP) measurement has established accuracy and is widely used in various settings (eg, office, home, and ambulatory conditions). All BP values measured by this technique provide both the information necessary for an accurate diagnosis of hypertension and prognostic power for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events, and the reduction of high BP levels leads to the prevention of CVD events [1]. In addition, various BP variability parameters, such as short-, mid-, and long-term variability assessed by office BP, home BP, and ambulatory BP monitoring, are associated with the progression of target organ damage and a risk of CVD events, independent of the patients’ average BP values [2–4]. However, the evidence underlying these associations was obtained in studies of populations without arrhythmia or in investigations that ignored the contribution of arrythmias, since the device used for the BP measurements had been validated only under sinus rhythm. Each BP value is obtained from the pulse wave from the time point at which the cuff is inflated to the time it is deflated. The values may be affected by the temporal variation and magnitude variation of the pulse wave associated with the irregularity of the heartbeats. The cardiac cycle consists of systolic and diastolic phases, and if ventricular contractility is normal, circulatory dynamics are regulated by left ventricular (LV) ejection during the systolic phase and LV filling during the diastolic phase, in addition to vascular elasticity. Fluctuations in heart rate affect LV stroke volume. Moreover, ventricular arrhythmias are prone to decrease BP because of the loss of atrioventricular (AV) contractile linking by antegrade AV node conduction.The length of time from the QRS complex in electrocardiography monitoring to the maximum pulse wave in the peripheral arteries was defined as the conventional pulse transit time (cPTT)[5, 6], and this time variable has been used in a novel cuffless form of continuous BP monitoring. Miao et al. reported a parameter that can be used for accurate assessment of BP variability during ventricular arrhythmia based on the concept of the cPTT, and they reported that adjusted PTT= cPTT2/RR was calculated from the RR interval of the cardiac cycle during ventricular arrhythmias [7]. In that study, there was a strong negative correlation between the adjusted PTT and the BP assessed by an invasive method during ventricular arrhythmia compared to cPTT. It is assumed that premature ventricular complex and ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a short coupled period results in insufficient LV filling and consequently a decrease in the LV stroke volume. The adjusted PTT appears to be an index that emphasizes the prolongation of the cPTT and decreased BP along with ventricular arrhythmias with a short coupled period. Miao et al. demonstrated that the adjusted PTT is useful as an index to evaluate BP during ventricular arrhythmia. However, there are several limitations regarding the adjusted PTT to consider.
