Aside from the home use, If this could be proven to be just as accurate as arterial lines this would be a huge benefit to patients in the ICU or undergoing major surgery where continuous blood pressure is needed. I hate putting in A-lines.

Non-invasive measures can simply be unclipped, or made fully mobile in the first place. The problem is having a non-invasive method which works, which has been the sticking point until now.
