The researchers found they were able to measure three types of blood pressure with 95 to 96 per cent accuracy.
First question, what is the third type of blood pressure? I just know the two numbers, systolic and diastolic.
Second, what it the accuracy of current devices? (Which also have gone automated, and seem pretty nifty) It seems like being 5% off could push someone over the newly lowered border of worrying blood pressure at systolic > 120.

This is really interesting. I love the idea.
